MBB: American Southwest Conference

[dsc]

321,

I agree mostly with your analysis.

However, I do think that HSU can at least win one of their two remaining games...even though they are "away."  (Against UMHB and CUA.)  Of course, it may be tough, for UMHB needs to win...and CUA will be tough in their last home game!  (Aren't they good at 3-pointers...?...and HSU has always seemed vulnerable to that...not sure of the stats, but it has "seemed" that way.)  If HSU doesn't win one of those required games, then they won't deserve to be in the playoffs.  We'll see!

Go Cowboys!!!

You are right, HSU doesn't deserve a bid if they lose both, but let's hope that doesn't happen.  I think CUA is a deadly team at home because if they do get hot, and you fall into their style of play, they have a great advantange.  I don't think CUA's style of play is a good one but it will allow you to beat a more talented team, if that team plays your way. 
UMHB needs to win both just to get good momentum going into the playoffs.  McMurry can lose and regroup for the tourney.  HPU really needs to finish well after their last week.  I think SRSU should win two so HSU play hard and get a win!

How about this to toss around -- Take all 8 teams to the conference tourney like the old Southwest Conference.   All teams would still be playing for something

You mean all 16 teams? 

[jmnaseum]

Yes BfB  -- sorry ,  eight from the west and eight from the east

I don't think an all team conference tourney would be bad.
I'm not sure how many schools, especially the ones that aren't successful, would want to spend the money or allow the missed class time for a tournament that would take 4 days.  It would be good though, everyone, no matter their season ending ranking, would have a chance.

Any MCM or HSU scores?

[Aerie Head]

6:05 to go in the first half and it's ETBU 38, Ozarks 17. 

You know, this Ozarks team makes me think of the little girl with the curl -- when they're good, they're very good, but when they're bad, they're HORRID!!!
