Troy fell flat against WKU though.
You guys have converted me, Im now checking basketball scores. My wife is gonna kill me now that I seem to be starting ANOTHER FAU sports obsession.

pssst…we wanted the ones in bold to win… ;D
so we did get one good one - Troy lost…FIU is now two games back of us…was needing UALR to win to solidy the west and help put them away as well…hopefully someone will take control of the west division soon…otherwise this thing will be a crazy tiebreaker scenario….dont want that!
it look slike Troy is now out of hosting anything alltogether barring a miracle…

Ok, so i lied!
Tonight's games added lines…this is rediculous…it is possible for a three way tie for first in the west at 7-6…followed by two teams tied for second at 6-7…
thats rediculous!!!
and 2 of our "preferred" W teams are not favored…….
* Thu, Feb 14
Arkansas State -1.5
New Orleans
Jonesboro, Arkansas
* Thu, Feb 14
North Texas -9
Denver
Denton, Texas
* Thu, Feb 14
Middle Tennessee
South Alabama -5
Murfreesboro, Tennessee
* Thu, Feb 14
Louisiana-Lafayette -7
ULM
Lafayette, Louisiana
After tonight we may know nothing but more head spinning…

Denver
7-6
UALR
7-6
Louisiana-Lafayette
7-6
New Orleans
6-7
North Texas
6-7
NOT ONE of the teams we wanted to win won :-\
and the lines were defied as well in two cases…….
This makes it more crucial for us to finish strong…no wiggle room occuring…….
BUT we do have the edge on UNO and UNT head to head…so even if we tie with them, we gain the higher seed…

do we have any chance at catching them?
My two favorite teams are FAU, and who ever is beating FIU!

the one time we want So. Alabama to win… they lose to MTSU
do we have any chance at catching them?
mathmatically, yes…but they have four games left…we are likely to finish 3-2 - 9-9 SBC….they would have to lose all of thier remaining games to finish 9-9…
now, granted, one of those will be us…
but here is what they have left besides us:
WKU - loss
Denver - win or loss (Denver plays very well at home)
Troy - win
SO, unlikely that we will catch them…
