Quad 4 losses cancel out Quad 1 wins (they only have one of those). Most of the bubble teams don't have multiple Quad 4 losses...they are devastating. Then it falls to the other criteria, which does make it dicey for USF given they only have one Quad 1 win.

They have two Quad 4 losses, which really hurts them.

FAU 80 ---------- NT 76 Final

FAU 69 ---------- NT 66 2:27 to go Coming right down to the end. Need to keep getting stops and hope we can hit a few to steal this one.

FAU 62 ---------- NT 57 7:55 to go Need to find some offense. Without Jones in we're struggling.

FAU 61 ---------- NT 55 9:51 to go The game has largely lost its flow. Tons of fouls being called.

FAU 56 ---------- NT 55 11:49 to go Real back and forth action.

FAU 50 ---------- NT 49 15:29 to go Pushed to a seven point led before the Owls went on a 10-0 run.

Still a lot of time left, but SMU losing. If ECU happens to hold on and we can keep our nose in front who has the tie breaker between us and the Mustangs?

NT 42 ---------- FAU 40 Halftime Edwards trying to match Davis. Both might get 30+ tonight.

FAU 32 ---------- NT 29 4:00 to go Johnell Davis is putting on a show.

NT 24 ---------- FAU 23 7:33 to go Fantastic effort to grab the lead after that start.

FAU 18 ---------- NT 16 10:00 to go Noland kept us in it for a few minutes and now the offense coming alive.

FAU 12 ---------- NT 3 15:57 to go Owls are hitting on all cylinders early, but hopefully we can get our teeth in this.

FAU 9 ---------- NT 0 18:01 to go Not a good start.

Yes, they think FAU will defeat USF in the league tourney.

Rubin Jones has been a stalwart during his time here, but retiring a number is well beyond the HOF. I'm not sure I'd retire anyone's jersey since I've followed UNT and I grew up in Denton with with two alumni parents. At the very least I'd have to really, really think about it. It's not just about what numbers you put up, but it's about what you mean to the school.

I mean, I do think you need to give coaches a bit of time to get things established, but in the day of endless transfers, the leash is definitely shorter. Not that someone can't completely turn it around in Year 1 (Burton just did it), but I don't think it's necessarily realistic to expect going from the basement to a title at the snap of a finger.

Plenty of teams win their conference regular season and wouldn't be close to being on the bubble if they lost their league tournament.

Don't we usually have 3-5 home games over winter break though?

One could just as easily blame alumni or Denton area residents given there are hundreds of thousands. The reality is it's growth. We just need to to continue! We average 4100+ this year...shoot for 4500+ next year, etc..

I'd prefer not playing FAU as late as possible. Even should we beat them on Wednesday, they're the team I least want to play in the tourney - even over USF. Once the regular season is over and March Madness really begins, I feel like they'll flip the switch. We all saw what they are capable of last year.

Right now the 7 seed gets FAU. I'd rather play Charlotte than the Owls.

Yeah, I noticed that too. I suppose it's possible one of those years we may have averaged a bunch of people - impossible to know.

Memphis is dangerous when they're hitting on all cylinders. They went on a 22-0 run in about five minutes of game time.
