    We should be favored every game from here out except for Louisville and Cincy which are both at home, maybe St. Louis is a pick 'em given our history there. Here's my question, how can we keep from stumping our toe? We already did once with the UAB game but the Cincy game kinda negates that (not really but I can rationalize anything).

    If we can steal one of the big two, we could position ourselves very well if we focus and play hard (and smart). BTW, ECU concerns me, but their big guy being out has to hurt. We just can't lose to the bottom feeders.

    Only 2 more losses will give 20 wins, & yes, we'll be in. If the 2 losses come against Louisville & Cincy, that means we defeat everyone else; and 2 losses against those 2 teams won't hurt our rpi very much. If 1 or 2 of the losses are against 1 or 2 of the other teams, that means we beat Louisville and/or Cincy and add 1 or 2 more "QUALITY" wins to the resume. Plus, 20 wins which include at least 4 "QUALITY" wins should get us in anyway. Then, there's always the 3 extra wins we'll get in the conference tourney.

    Still a lot of basketball left.

    Depending on what happens with both teams between now and Feb. 21, we may or may not be favored against S. Miss.

    We never win at St. Louis. I used to say that about Cincy.

    Finish 5 and 4, plus 1 win in the conference tourney and we are probably dancing. Anything less and we are bubblistic. (Bubblistic, i made that up.)


    Is there any longer any doubt, that Withers needs to touch the ball on every offensive set?

    Just two more losses? Hope so. I just want "us" to win at East Carolina. We have had a habit of taking one step forward and two steps back and I don't want a mis-step this time. It's ECU's homecoming and They haven't won in the league, yet!
    After that, we can look at the next game.
    We will not win at Saint Louis. I say that every year. Unfortunately.
    Something always goes wrong there.
