AAC Tourney Game Thread (Non UConn Games)

[Drew]

So ECU leads UCF 67-63 with 5:49 left. ECU could challenge SMU for a half I believe, BJ Tyson is a great player as a Freshman. ECU was up 17 at one point but UCF has chipped away

Expect replies to match the # of people at the ECU game......1

 

[Drew]

Doesn't mattee much to me, just looking to discuss the games in the tourney. 76-74 ECU with 1:00 left this game has been exciting

 

[Drew]

ECU great look at the buzzer but rims out and headed to OT.. 76-76

 

[Edward Sargent]

Now this is basketball

 

[Drew]

81-80 ECU wins in OT.. Ucf misses a shot at the buzzer. Tulane/Houston next 6 pm espnnews

Caught this gem between games on pti because sports nation made me want to scratch my eyes out.

 

[boog204]

jeez, the attendance is absolutely pitiful.

 

[Drew]

Houston plays an absolutely crazy style to watch. Constantly jacking 3's and all freak athletes

First game of the day tips at 12 noon with SMU (-14.5) taking on ECU. Anyone see the Pirates covering the spread in this one?

 

[uchusky32]

Point spread or fans at the game spread?

 

[1999.2004.2011]

Point spread or fans at the game spread?

I'll take SMU -14.5, and I'll take the under on the number of fans

 

[Drew]

5 point game 10 minutes left

 

[HungryHuskies]

Do we want Temple to beat Memphis since they probably have a better shot of beating SMU?

 

[ASweet3781]

Go figure. I've sat through 5 games so far and the first AAC school who didn't bother to send their cheerleaders or band is....basketball school Memphis. Even ecu sent theirs. Where's that Memphis superfan? I thought you guys were excited to be in the AAC? Perhaps your athletic dept is short on cash?

 

[Drew]

Next game up is Tulsa/Houston tonight. What're we thinking attendance wise, 4,000?

 

[Joobie]

jeez, the attendance is absolutely pitiful.

Anyone go to Memphis last year for the AAC tourney? Was the attendance better there? Having it in HTFD is great for our guys & for the area. They won't have it there again if attendance is so poor...

 

[ASweet3781]

The place got very loud for each Temple score late. Either a lot of Ct fans adopted them or there were a lot of Temple fans sprinkled around the arena.

 

[Drew]

If UConn makes the semis I expect both games tomorrow to be filled at least 80%. Crowd looked much better on TV today for both games

Big difference with 1 better teams and 2 being split into two sessions unlike the tripleheader being one session on Thursday.

With Temple playing tomorrow I'ld expect more of their fans to make the several hour+ trip. And should be a good game anyway vs SMU for others to watch.

 

[Drew]

Tulsa and Houston about to tip.. I'm in Charlotte at the Hornets/Bulls game tonight but if someone could comment in here regarding the crowd/updates I'd appreciate it
