The refs and commentators are all but begging for Auburn to win. An Auburn player makes a nice play and the analysts spend the next two minutes raving about it, while at the same time Tulsa rails off six unanswered. It's kinda hilarious.
The didn't have very many opportunities to rave about Auburn considering the only managed to put up 35 points.
I turned the Illy State game off at half. It was embarrassing. Then I see the final today, that's nuts. If they could have that first half back and realize they're playing basketball and not keep away, they might have won.
Also, you know, maybe the zone gameplan isn't the best for a team shooting 40% from 3 coming into the game. But then, what do I know? I'm certainly not the coach of a team I believe is going to win the Missouri Valley Conference.
Tulsa looks pretty decent; might give us a good game this year. This game against Auburn has been tought to watch and listen to. The refs and commentators are all but begging for Auburn to win.

Are you suggesting there REALLY is SEC bias???? Ohhhhh the propaganda by announcers to perpetuate the myth the SEC is just AWESOME!!!!!! Lol Nice try announcers and networks. We do still have eyes to see the truth even though Jerry Springer is still dumbing down our society!!!! Lol - Sorry...I'm done. :)

Hopefully-not-an-eventual-opponent Hawaii leading Marist 35-22 at halftime.
Agreed, but it's still good to root for them. Whether they play us or not, they'll play 3 of the teams in that tournament, so they will definitely impact our RPI more than some teams.
Definitely need Michigan to take care of Villanova today. Villanova will pass us this week if not. In fact, whoever wins that game could certainly jump us for a little while.
There are quite a few games like this today (games that have implications for our ranking). Maybe Turgeon can do us a favor and hold of Iowa St, too. The big one is K-State and Arizona. I think the Cats have a shot. The rest of the teams ahead of us are pretty well shoe-ins today against weak competition.
Then you have Creighton taking on Eastern Illinois in a HUGE game on FS1...
Pitt vs San Diego St.
Charlotte vs Miami

Today is another really big day for getting things back on track. A lot of good things can happen to continue the good vibes from yesterday. We need all of these...especially the ones from the MVC, and they are all at least winnable. Sadly, there is just as good of a chance that every last MVC game will be a loss. Gotta get it done.
