Conference Predictions

[UCalum08]

as hard as it is for me to say,you may want to consider X is not a bad team. Since beating us they have played very well.

I know what you are saying. They have won 7 in a row. But considering they have only played 1 true road game this year I believe they are pretenders. They are a home team bc simply opposing teams get homered there. Nice scheduling Eggs...what a bunch of dbags.

Im interested to see how they do once they get into the teeth of the little beast. Nova, Gtown, Providence, Marquette ect. will be a much bigger test than they have had in conference in the past. They are rolling right now but their biggest tests await. Really impressed with their talent though which makes me puke.

yea, me too. Lol! Truth is them winning actually helps us a tad.would really like to see them again in NCAA. Ending their season would ease the pain of that beat down they put on us.

They are a horrible team in a mid major conference.

Please stop referencing those losers

You can't really say that when we were thoroughly dominated by them a month ago

As much as I hate them, they have a good squad this year. I think that we weren't nearly as bad as we played in that game, we would play them much closer a second time around, IMO. We just came out flat and they couldn't miss. In fact, I doubt they shoot that well the rest of the year. Can't deny that they are good, however.

Xavier is a pretty good team, I would say they are probably the 3rd best we've played behind Memphis and Pittsburgh.

With that being said they had their best performance of the season during that game (99.5 on scale of 1-100). While Cincinnati had it's worst game (34.8). UC's best performance was on Saturday (rated 99.3).

I am right. Xavier is not a good team. They played out of their minds against us and in a rematch we would dominate. We know it, they know it, everyone knows it. AAC>Little East by far.

The top 5 is probably what I'd go with based on what I've seen to this point. I think SMU will get 2 of the top 3 teams at home in some combination but due to their youth lose some road games. UConn will be up and down depending on how their guards are playing. Memphis is very talented but has to make outside shots and Louisville is thin on the front line but has a lot of talent on their roster and Rick Pitino. Oddly enough JJ gives UC something the other top teams lack. An inside force.

Rutgers will finish ahead of Temple and UCF and battle Houston for that 6th spot I believe.

I think we are really fortunate this season because most of the conference is lacking in size. If the Big East was still together, we might be in trouble, but the AAC is almost strictly a guard-dominated league right now.

[bearcat jeff]

Those last 4 games could be huge Louisville @ home, @ UConn, Memphis @ home and @ Rutgers where they have played flat.

The shoe will be rocking when Louisville and Memphis come to town, which will really help, if were still playing like we have been I like our chances in those and in winning the conference
