Hey TCU beat a ranked Nevada team last night at Staples Center...so you have that going for you. Which is nice.
Just don’t end up in the middle or lower end of the pack in the Big 12.
Right now they are one of only 7 remaining undefeated teams so maybe they are good enough to finish in top half of Big XII this year which should make them a tourney team. Hopefully Arizona and USC can finish in top half of PAC 12 as well.

Will need to watch UNI and WKU to see if they can compete for Missouri Valley and CUSA titles, respectively. Have to hope those games don't become "bad" losses. Both teams look pretty good early.

UNI is usually does well and is a solid mid major team. And Stansbury has recruited WKU into CUSA title contention. Neither will be bad losses imo.

Tulsa comes up with a very nice win over Kansas State and Houston closes out St Louis. A solid day for the conference.

Damn.. Cincy is looking more like a bubble team than a lock. Only lock is WSU at this point.

The last two minutes of the Cindy game were atrocious. No point guard leadership or floor management.

Sometimes this board is so ridiculous. Cincy is a bubble team because they have two losses - at #5 Florida and #13 Xavier?? You should hang out with Mac Engel....

All and all it’s been a solid non conf for the AAC thus far. Decent shot at getting 4 in for sure.

Sorry, you’re right. A little too much criticism. I just follow the guide: we are the AAC. Unless you win games you shouldn’t, you’re a bubble team. I just feel the NCAA will always discount us.

No question Cincy didn't show out like we hoped they would against Xavier. And they couldn't quite get Florida on the road. But I look at it as a positive. Gives me more hope we can steal one from them in conference. And I still think they are too talented and well coached to not figure it out

Now Cincy does need to take care of business in these next two - Miss St (6-0) at home and at UCLA (7-2) next Saturday which is a CBS game.
