The other Belt rep game just started.

WKU 98-97 21.3 to go ONE defensive stand

Big time rebound and push up the floor... WKU to the line!!

HUGE shot...then nice defense....then you get your pocket picked...and then a stupid foul....

WKU just needs to buckle down on defense. Only behind by 1 with 2:25 to go.

Overtime... Whew

Didn't I say no turnovers?? Jesus

Plenty of time to work for a good shot....just no turnovers...

Back in it BIG TIME

C'mon WKU....

WKU 80 Drake 73 3:56 to go

Drake climbing back in this....

WKU 74 Drake 59 7:42 left

WKU 68 Drake 53 10:46 to go

Hilltoppers 66-50!!!

WKU 51 Drake 43 15:34 to go Fouls really piling up on the Hilltoppers. Could come back to hurt at the end...

Almost made that...Holy cow!! Way to go Tops!!

WKU 47-38!!! About 4 seconds from the half

I'm watching the game. Courtney Lee is playing like the NBA prospect he is. WKU 34 Drake 32 3:57 1st half

Drake 28 WKU 26 7:44 to go Alot of early fouls on the Toppers...other than that they're playing really well.

Drake 20 WKU 16 11:49 1st half Both teams like to run. This game may be first to 90.

Up 8-7 15:49 1st half.

Just so we're comparing. Here's the overall strength of schedule rankings for the Sunbelt. MTSU 72 FIU 120 South Alabama 126 Western Kentucky 138 UL-Monroe 144 Troy 166 ULL 171 NT 183 ASU 198 UNO 216 Denver 222 FAU 245 UALR 288

You stated NT had one of the worst non conference schedules for any school in the Sunbelt. I was merely pointing out that wasn't so. BTW - NT had a 15 seed just as much because our conference record wasn't sparkling as anything else. If we'd been 16-2 or something instead of 10-8 our nonconference schedule wouldn't have mattered much. We'd have likely been a 13 or something. Not great, but within the realm of reasonable upsets.

I'm not sure it's that out of line with the rest of the Belt. New Orleans and UALR both had worse RPI's with 20 wins.
