CUSA so far . . .

Postby mustang1992 » Sat Feb 09, 2013 1:20 pm

There has not been a single team that has blown us out, in fact, I think with a few breaks we could have won all the games thus far. Looking at the remainder of our schedule, we could finish strong. It's been exciting to watch this team play (frustrating at times as well), looking forward to seeing how they finish with the weaker end of the conference left.

Let's start tonight Stangs, kick the Owls!

Very true. This team hasn't won much in CUSA but it certainly has the guts to pull an upset in the tourney.

We were up at the half in 3 of our 7 losses. And against the top 2 teams (Memphis and So Miss) we were only down 5 pts and 6 pts respectively at the half, and both games were very winnable if we had any production off the bench.

There's a logjam of teams with 3 wins at 8th-11th place (Houston, UAB, Marshall and SMU) and 2 teams (Tulane and ECU) with 4 wins at 6th & 7th places, which are our next two opponents. Then we have Rice. All three games are winnable and could get us to the middle of the pack.

yes, and you guys keep crying about depth depth, it is a factor sure. But the fact is we have been in these games and they were winnable. Lots of boneheaded plays in the last few minutes.

Enough about the depth!!! Play smart.

We did kind of turd in the punch bowl at UTEP and Houston. While we lost to UTEP by I think 9, that game was just a clunker.
