Let's be totally honest, we dropped the ball against a couple of teams but the top of the conference has been very competitive this year. Our team has had a great season under the circumstances but they are tired and we still have to play AT Memphis and Cincinnati...with UCONN at home. Winning all three of those games would be a miracle.

I am rooting for the team and especially these seniors but I do think we need to be realistic...

First, why do we need to be realistic?
Second, I see a site that gives us a 23% chance of winning out. I do not think that implies a miracle.

Tiebreaker only matters for the conference seeding. We do not care about that. Win out and the worst case is co-champions

Missing 6'10" and 6'11" guys I think hurt us against UConn (also was first game back for Brimah so he was well rested and chomping at the bit - I think we take them at Moody). We just kinda laid an egg against Temple and especially Tulsa. I have faith we can win out, but that Cincy game is going to be a toughie.

That wasn't Brimah's first game back.

Yeah I thought the tiebreaker applied to conference title but it doesn't - so we have a shot now.
It's very realistic for us to be playing for a share of the AAC in our last game. That's all you can ask for at this point.

I would be pretty surprised if we don't beat Tulane, UCONN and Memphis. We should be favored in all three of those games.

That would mean that we would be playing for the Conference championship in our last game.

"Danny" (MICHAEL O'Keefe.... Real first name :Ray) and I hitch-hiked from Larchmont to Winged Foot Country Club every morning for three summers where we caddied together. Brushwood may have been a creation of the older actors but O'Keefe definitely earned his chops growing up.
