Haven't paid my respects to USM yet. They gameplanned well and came ready to play. Shut MTs bigs down with double teams in the paint and are super quick on both sides of the floor. Congrats!

Hilltoppers with 56 point swing against UAB. Good guys 98-70.

Yeah, I’m not saying to much since ODU kinda owes us for the thumping we gave them. It’s going to be a battle tomorrow, its really hard to beat a good team 3 times in a row

Hard to believe that big of a turnaround from our last game which was less than a week ago

Well, you kinda said the same thing before the last game. And to be honest you were right. The game in BG was different than the game in Norfock. I’m just not sure you meant it that way.

Well there's only a couple of ways that we haven't tried yet and I like the results of the ones remaining.

We need to play a lot better than we did tonight though.

Lol. I hear ya. When we lost to Middle I stated we might not win another game all year then UAB happened and I didn’t know if we’d even show up at the tourney. Especially when paired against UAB again. But I knew we had the same players we’ve had all year. When they play hard like they did tonight I’d give them a shot against anyone. Seriously. We go usually as Darius Thompson goes. He unleashed his Fro again tonight and it was glorious. More importantly on defense than offense.

Should be a bang up game. The two teams match up well and have generally been just a tiny bit behind Middle all year. And no shame in that for either squad.

Not with our coach. This wasn't surprising at all to me really. He's terrible.

Where were you last week, Answer? Only shows up after losses. I guess he's only terrible after losses

MT 3-3 vs top 50 RPI teams.They still have a shot at an at large if things fall just right.

This was just for UAB and MTSU, ODU scares me for sure...Its so tough to beat a team 3 times, however if we play how we are capable of, this team can do it and same with Marshall...

I would say the winner of ODU/WKU will take the title. The Herd doesn't match up well with either. jmo IF we can get past a solid USM squad. Impressed with their play against MT.

He is bad but he brought in Bryant, who is going to be a superstar.

Hell, if Bryant’s gonna be a superstar then wth is Tayveon Hollingsworth gonna be? A double secret superstar? Cause Tayveon has him in almost every single catergoy on Pomeroy.

Turn in your fan card sir. We can handle ODU. WKU is much tougher. ODU hasn't gotten Marshall's best shot at all. Herd playing very well.in this tourney and Williams gas emerged as a real stud late in the season and we can win vs either team, but for various reasons, id rather beat ODU.

I would guess it's cause we've beaten you 2x this year.

One can be a Herd fan and recognize that we'll be a slight dog to either opponent in the finals.

I'm sure that MTSU, ODU, WKU, and UAB all wish they could have gotten the lucky draw that Marshall ended up with in the Tournament.

In the first round they play the 5th seed that has just lost its star player to season ending injury and win that one in a cake walk as expected.

In the second round they get to play the 9th seed team that is playing their 3rd game in 3 days. Up 20 at the half and another cake walk is in progress. Lets face it, MTSU pretty much gave them a free pass to the final.

They should be well rested for the winner of the ODU / WKU game tomorrow. Whichever team wins between those two, I hope it is a blowout by halftime so the winner can coast in with the victory and be as rested as Marshall will be.
