Believe it or not, if we win this weekend and Memphis loses, we get the 5 seed and the bye. Memphis is at Cincy so thats not easy but neither is our game vs Temple.

call me crazy, but I don't even want the bye anymore.

if we're gonna win the tournament, we need a boost. beating up on a bad team in the first round might be just what we need. it worked in 2011.

Yes and ESPN put up a graphic tonight with a AAC tournament bracket if the season ended today. We would be playing Temple in the first game. I dont know why, but win or lose on Saturday, id rather not play Temple in our first game of the tournament after just playing them Saturday.

The most likely path is:

-Lose Sat @ Temple
-Play Houston in the 6-11 game Thu at 8:30 PM
-Play Cincy Fri at 9 PM
-Play Tulsa Saturday at 5:30 PM

All 3 of those are favorable matchups for UConn. Would love it if that happens

At least I know who to blame when UConn plays at 2:30 on Friday.

Do me a favor and beat Temple. Then Cincy and UConn can meet in the final.

11 seed could easily be USF too. They and Houston are currently tied, have equally winnable games left (USF vs Tulane, HOU vs ECU), and HOU has the tiebreaker since we're the highest seed either has beaten.

It's win the conference tourney or it's NIT @ Gampel in front of a less than packed house. THATS WHAT IT ALL BOILS DOWN TO NOW.
