Message: [QUOTE="ThabeetDown, post: 2947732, member: 4336"] Figured we had enough games to see how our beloved conference was doing in non-conference. Only taking into account P5 and Big East matchups. Below are wins AAC teams have had so far, KenPom Ratings: #18 Syracuse (UConn) #31 Oregon (Houston) #57 OK State (Tulsa) #60 Providence (Wichita) #64 Baylor (Wichita) #68 Alabama (UCF) #92 Mizzou (Temple) #120 Georgia (Temple) #180 Cal (Temple) On the docket is: Memphis vs #10 Tennessee UConn vs #16 FSU, #19 Villanova Tulsa vs #22 Kansas State Cincy vs #26 Miss State, #48 UCLA, #55 Xavier Wichita vs #37 Oklahoma Houston vs #51 LSU, #57 OK State SMU vs #94 Gtown UConn, Houston, Wichita and Cincy definitely all control their own destiny in terms of at-large bids -- even Tulsa if they take down K-State. Temple also did play Nova close last night, so they could also get in with a strong conference season. Getting 4 teams into the tourney is doable, 5+ is definitely tough though. I'm glad UConn and Memphis are carrying the conference in terms of scheduling, even though Memphis is a year away (losses to OK State, LSU, and Texas Tech so far this year). Hoping that continues next year when both teams, in theory, should be better. Kind of disappointing the UCF who is "supposed to be" the best team in the conference has a fairly week non-conference schedule, but I guess they take after their football team. You can't get any of the P5 Florida schools or SEC or ACC teams in a home and home other than Bama and Mizzou? Their AD should probably not put scheduling on his resume as a skill. Even Tulsa played Nevada, went to Utah, and scheduled 2 Big 12 teams -- UCF should hire their AD. [/QUOTE]
