I'm very interested to see the basketball configuration in their football stadium.  The NCAA has some balls to take the risk of bad weather having it outside.

Yeah I think we will be the 1st game & Syracuse will play after us. Ohio St. & West Virginia will get the prime time match-ups. Which I have to work Thursday evening & I want to watch K-State beat Southern Miss in beautiful HD & watch the other games on the computer at work.

1) Last in C-usa in eFG% offense.   Last both in conf games (16 of them) at 46.3% and in all (33 games) of their games (47.0%)

2) Last in C-usa in eFG% defense.   Last in both conf games (52.3%) and in all of their games (49.5%)

3) Ranked last and 262 nationally --- shooting the ball at a 41.9% clip.       

They shoot 35.8% from 3pt and make just over six 3s per game

3. Loss at #147 UTEP 76-68
4. Loss at #42 Marshall 79-75
5. Win (conf tourn) vs # 164 E Carolina 81-78
6. Loss (conf tour) vs #42 Marshall 73-62

3.  3 guys ave more than 30 minutes.   Those 3 all guards (5'11, 6'0, 6'2)

4.  Only 1 guy taller than 6'7...... and looks like he is lanky (6'10 200)

About 3 less TOs per game than their opponents and 5 more OR than their opponents.
