since Cincy has already beaten Temple on the road and doesn't play Memphis on the road I kinda disagree as far as winning the AAC is concerned. Not too many teams are going to have much of a shot at beating Cincy

I agree on wanting Cincy to lose. At the very least I would think we would want them to split and that is less likely if Cincy wins tonight.

Troy Caupain just hurt a leg or ankle-can't put weight on it initially

Regular season champs while is great doesn't get you an auto bid into the tourney only the NIT, right? So just making sure we get into the conference tourney is all that matters. I hope we can beat Cincy on the road but that's a tall order. However Temple only lost by 6, so who knows.

Temple will be "upper division" of AAC by season's end. I expect them and to compete with Memphis & UCF for 4-5-6 seeds in AAC Tourney


I think we'll finish about 5th. We really need next year's recruits badly.

If we are regular season conference champs we will basically have an automatic bid because it will take at least 14-4 or 15-3 in conference play to win or share the regular season title over Cincy this year. But you're correct that it doesn't give you an automatic bid into the tourney.

You may have misworded, but everyone makes the conference tourney. The league is looking more and more like a 2 bid league this year, unless UH really gets rolling or someone unexpected wins the conference tourney.

2-3 losses is what will win the conference this year.

I'm guessing no two people would like to end that more than Sterling and Ben.

It will take epic performances. It can be done.

An important and very interesting game today at 4pm, UCF at UConn. Has UConn completely quit on Ollie? Will UCF be a serious contender for the conference? Fall vs. Brimah.
