How does Cincy go 1 for 19 from 3pt range and shoot 29% for the game against SMU and still win. They also got out rebounded - Crazy

SMU shot 39.9% and Cincy shot 29.9% - I guess it was because SMU had 17 turnovers - 5 by Nick Moore. Weird Game

They're trying to give Cincy a better position to go dancing? ;)

Don't actually believe this, but Cincy beating SMU and then losing to UConn...and then UConn going to the conference semis or title game before losing to Houston/Tulsa would be the best way to get 3-4 bids for the conference.

Cincy gets a breath with the SMU win.
UConn beating Cincy gets them in good shape.
Tulsa/Temple/Houston are all enigmas who need the Finals or a win to make it. Keeping Cincy/UConn on one side allows one of them that.

Still, I want to win it all to be sure. Looking for a 1o or 11 seed--7 seed if we are lucky.

If nothing else you are extremely optimistic. If we win the whole thing I don't see us with a prayers chance at a 7 seed, barring some sort of major collapse across the CBB landscape. I see it as: Lose game 1, we're out. Win game 1, lose game 2, play-in. Make the final, 10 seed, win the conference title, 8 seed.

According to Lunardi, a top 8 RPI conference regular-season champion has never been snubbed and he doesn't expect it this time. "If I'm a committee member and I had to chose between a PAC-12 team that finished at or below .500 in conference and an AAC team that won the regular season and went 14-4 in the conference, it's a no-brainer. I'd pick the AAC champ."

If you actively identify as a Temple fan, you inherently have a pretty crappy existence.
