Why is it a longshot to make the big dance? The 10th ranked team lost to 2 unranked teams in a row (USF & Tulane) and Wichita St is 8-10. That first win was a good win, for now. If Memphis keeps losing, it's not as important of a win come tournament time. And Wichita St is on a 7 game losing streak, that was a game we are supposed to win at home. This isn't a Gregg Marshall coached Wichita State team. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everybody left on our schedule either has the same record or a losing record. Which goes back to my question....what makes us such a longshot?

Furthermore FAU scraping by in the last few games may mean they drop out of the top 25 as well. Having said that we need to keep the momentum going and anything can happen.

They said that was the only way we would get in, not with an at large bid ........ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In our current conference that is true. The power conferences can get away with that. We did in 2012. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
