2022-23 C-USA Basketball ๐Ÿ€

Just my opinion, but would hope FAU and UTSA would aspire to something more than 1930s era Fogelman Arena, which opened when Tulane was a member of the SEC!

Stansbury seeing the same chiropractor that K used that one year?

I suspect there are quite a number of Topper fans hoping Stansbury takes his time while on the mend.

Was in fact 36 by Davis for the Owls.

79 all at the end of regulation in Miami:

Been looking over Blue Raider Stats Twitter page and his C-USA MBB tournament bracket prediction posted earlier makes more sense now.

Dazia deserved that.

FAU receiving votes in AP:

And the coaches poll:

BTW, looking over Mr. Clicheโ€™s weekly top 45 and apparently FAU not good enough for that list. Interesting coming from the guy who claims heโ€™s college basketball 24/7 etc:

These polls are just laughable. This is typically just a popularity contest. What idiots keep giving UNC Crap votes for Top 25? They have won one game against a top 25, which was at the beginning of the year. Since then, they have yet to beat a top 25 team and most of their losses have been against unranked teams. So I guess if you are the privileged few, records really donโ€™t matter.

Parrish includes FAU in his list at #26:

FAU probably needs to be ranked at this point. You donโ€™t go 14-1 with a 14 game winning streak and not deserve to be in that discussion.

I suspect if FAU were to play Ole Miss now they would come out on top. Beat Florida so 1-1 vs SEC. Of course, had some luck in Denton but no denying the Owls are a team on a roll.

Non Conference SOS is 256 per Ken Pomโ€ฆthatโ€™s what hurts.
Ours is 334 by comparison (out of 363).

Weak non-conference schedules get you crushed on your NCAA resume and gives the voters an โ€œeasy outโ€ for poll purposes too.

Yep, non-con SOS seems to only โ€œhurtโ€ those outside of the P6.
