[Ralph Turner]

Seth, you said it.  "Defense wins Championships."

Today McM's Maigen Sawyer held Concordia's Kassandra Bills to 1 of 16 FG's.  Lanean Harris for CUA is in only in double figures at 10 points because she went 6-12 at the charity stripe.  Otherwise, she was 2-9 on FG's.  CUA was only 5 of 27 in the second half on FG's, 18%. 

Maigen Sawyer held Meia Daniels scoreless and does a 1 for 16 on Bills.  That is championship defense!  I think I finally realize that Coaches Nichols and Densman have found this team's strength to be defense.  That is fine with me.

I like where LIB is!  Let's go!

Any predictions on the attendance at the HPU-HSU women's game? 

[sethhpu]

Ralph

I do believe defense wins championships, but it has to be team defense. Funny how Maigen Sawyer held Meia scoreless in Brownwood, but HPU still won the game. One great defender doesn't win a championship. HPU's foundation is team defense and has played championship defense every game of the season, take away the second half of the McM game in Abilene. I think the attendance for the HPU-HSU game, if both teams win, could be around 3,000.

[CUAfan]

Good luck to everyone who made the dance.

If someone from the East wins the tourney, what are the odds that the three ranked teams from the West still make it?

[mcmfan]

So far, the point differentials I've noted at various times on this board have been accurate predictors of game outcomes.  Early in the season, I noted that HPU was outscoring McM and HSU against common opponents by a factor of 2 or 3 to 1.  HPU ended up winning the West division.  So, time for another prediction: HSU beats HPU on Saturday (assuming both win their Friday games).  Reason: the point spreads indicate that HPU no longer has the crushing advantage that it had at the start of the season.  The winning margins from the last 4 games:
HPU CUA +31    HSU CUA +40
HPU UMHB +7   HSU UMHB +28
HPU SU +61      HSU SU +31
HPU TLU +47    HSU TLU +53
HPU outscored HSU only against Schreiner.  These are not the point spreads that HPU enjoyed several months ago.  Of course, HPU will have home court advantage, but that may not be enough to make up for the falling point spreads.

On paper, IMHO, ETBU's got the best chance in the East, but barring an upset, the Tigers may have to play McMurry and HSU back to back. After what the Tigers almost did to the Cowgirls last season, I'd be surprised if Melissa Contrucci & Co. allowed history to repeat itself.

If the three ranked teams make it past the first round, I think all three make it.

I think that half of the advantage for HSU is that McMurry is the travel partner.  How much did McMurry take out of UMHB this last week?

As SRSU women are currently playing (and building their program), the only thing that hinders the HPU side of the road trip is the long bus ride.

I like where LIB is now.  I really like our chances! 

[Ralph Turner]

Good news for the South Region Rankings for McMurry and HPU...

Oglethrope just got "monkey-stomped"  (as they say on the Liberty League board) by DePauw, 95-58.

[calhsu]

Go purple and gold.   
HSU is in the same place they were last year.  They were not ready.  Things could be different  this year.   5 seniors have to step up.  They may.  As far as beating HPU well,  if you look at the two games they have the best two games aganist them.  I would feel better if they were not playing  in Brownwood.   I give the jackets credit for meeting all the challenges this year.  ( I don't think a one point loss means anything.)     If anyone can beat then  the Cowgirls are the one.  McM will not win the tournament and will not play more than one game in the national tournament.  They are a good team but they aren't a great team.  HPU has the best team and HSU has the best tradition.   Last years tournament was won by MCM because they had the best team.   In a conference tournament the best team usually wins.  They doesn't matter in the big dance as much because of the great pressure of the event.  Don't get mad it is just a opinion.   Make your own prediction.  We will see who is right in a week.

[calhsu]

Oh I forgot.   Ralph I really don't disagree with you often but you made a statement about how HSU got the advantage of having MCM as a travel partner and that helped them.  That goes both ways.  Did my well informed friend forget they both weeks HSU played HPU first.  Who is to say if it had be the other way around that the Cowgirls could not have done better.  It is all second guessing, but I couldn't let you get away without saying something.

[Ralph Turner]

Calhsu, I am sorry that I did not clarify my point.  My comment was directed towards this specific comparison. 

HPU CUA +31    HSU CUA +40
HPU UMHB +7   HSU UMHB +28
HPU SU +61      HSU SU +31
HPU TLU +47    HSU TLU +53

As far as McM and HSU being travel partners, I love it now that HSU is stronger in men's basketball, and having an even more competitive McM women's works the same way.   The Trip to Abilene is now probably the toughest competition in the conference.

I strongly concur with your assessment.  I think our women did benefit from HPU playing HSU first and we almost benefitted again on Saturday when the Cowboys almost knocked off UMHB which would have given us the #1 seed.  I think that we took a lot out of UMHB on Thursday and the Cowboys almost pulled it off on Saturday.

[Ralph Turner]

Go purple and gold.   
... McM ...  will not play more than one game in the national tournament.  ...   

I can believe that happening, when the #3 team in the country hosts the #9 team in the country in the first round at their place. 

I am looking forward to the next two weeks!

Unless Trinity earns the SCAC Pool A bid, someone needs to be flown into the site of the Sub-Regionals, or if we end up with four teams in the tourney, a real outside chance...

ETBU or UMHB win

McM wins

HSU wins

UMHB or ETBU wins

UMHB or ETBU wins,

especially if Oglethorpe tanks early, and there are no upsets in the USAC, the ODAC and the GSAC.

[Ralph Turner]

I posted this on the men's side and have adapted it to the women's region's as well.

Coaches and AD's are beginning look at their 2007-08 schedules.  When the coaches meet, I hope that they will cut the mandatory number of inter-divisional games to 4-6 (18 total ASC games) to allow the schools to schedule someSouth Region opponents for the sake of boosting our QOWI.

We beat ourselves up when we should be adding 3-4 games against teams in other conferences that we can beat and get QOWI points.

I also hope that the couaches will vote to only count in-region games towards the division standings. Keep the inter-divisional games, because they help with the NCAA Criteria, but I believe that a coach should have about 10 games to put his team together.  Going 1-6 against the East or 1-7 against the West will knock you out of contention and how do you keep your players in it.  Also, it is not equitable to catch Miss Coll on the road and you opponent caught them at home at the end of a long road trip.  The South Region aspect is good, but let's cut the division counting games to the double round-robin.  (I am scared to think what chaos we would have had if McMurry and Ozarks men had not been allowed to reschedule that game.)

IMHO, we had only 2 noteworthy games from the national perspective for the men.  McMurry versus UW-Stout was a good game.  the WIAC is respected.  Scheduling Trinity, Austin College and Southwestern are good, as are Hendrix and Millsaps.  If you can get a game with UDallas, Oglethorpe, Piedmont or Maryville TN, good. McMurry picked up an in-region win versus Guilford.  No other game earned us any respect nationally.

MIssissippi College beat a very good NAIA-1 team Westmont.  That may be the only NAIA team that can do that because the Calvin's and the Hope's get no repsect for beating the Michigan NAIA's.

The second game was UMHB over defending champion and fellow south Region Member Virginia Wesleyan.  Thanks to UMHB for bringing them her and thanks for HSU for joining in.

I will recommend that schools consider playing as many D3 Soouth Region schools as possible.  (I can understand geography, and a Wylie-ETBU game once or a D1 money game.)  For the sake of the conference the only opponents that d3 cares about are these.  Here are the teams that count for the 12 Texas schools:

[Bench Coach]

Calhsu- What is so different with the McM team this year that doesn't make them the best team?  They only lost one Sr., and I don't think that losing the other players have been that much of a factor.  They have a great class of freshmen, if used right off the bench, they can and I think are the best team.  You said winning by one point doesn't mean anything, a WIN is a WIN regardless of score, it gives them a mark in the loss column.  I believe that the LIB can be the best team if the subs are subed right, and he keeps the right starters in. 

LET'S GO LIB!!!  GOOD LUCK IN BWOOD!!!  BRING HOME THE CHAMPIONSHIP, AGAIN!!!
