Temple at Tulsa

Postby LA_Mustang » Tue Feb 23, 2016 5:03 pm

This one is huge. The biggest game of the year for SMU that we're not playing in. Temple will be a significant favorite in their remaining three after this one. I'm afraid our chance to repeat rides on this game. Tips at 6pm on ESPNN.

Tulsa needs this one big time as well. They are in the CBS projection first four out list right now. Sadly, if they were to get in at the end, it would likely mean that Temple or UCONN does not get in - as they are currently on the good side of the bubble.

This game tonight has major tournament implications.

TU better not choke like those Cougars in Houston did this weekend.

The last four games for Temple are a joke compared to SMU's last four games....I think Temple has the conference win in the bag.

Not if Nic Moore has anything to say about the matter.

both of these teams are fighting for their NCAA Tourney lives and need to run the table, but realistically may also need to win the AAC Tourney to assure a berth. Should be a good one

Unfortunately, Temple controls its own destiny.

It's all up to us now. Take of business and we are back-to-back champs.

Tulsa is going to be 11-5 with just Memphis and USF left-probably finish 13-5

Thank you Tulsa for giving Temple a bare-bottom spanking.
