[tr][td]UTSA[/td][td]5-11[/td][/tr]

[tr][td]TAMU-CC[/td][td]5-11[/td][/tr]

[/table]

Going 12-4 in conference would put LU's record at 18-11 for the season, and IF we win the SLC tourney, 21-11 heading into the NCAA tourney.  I hope this team can keep improving and make it to 20 wins.  After starting 1-5 that would truly be amazing.

Agree but that is interesting to say the least. Would be awesome if Lamar could finish the season that strong. I think it would help boost the attendance numbers we have been talking about on another thread.

Something is wrong wqith pomeroy numbers. They project Lamar at 12-4, 3 more loses from now.

But the game to game projection is 1 more lost, 14-2

From Promeroy himself:

Projected record is based on chances of winning, and therefore may not conform to the

cumulative game-by-game predictions. This accounts for the unexpected results that

will inevitably happen during the season.

I am excited about LU as well, but until we learn to win on the road 12-4 is a pipe dream. If we can learn to win road games the sky is the limit. LU will be tough to beat at the Montagne in my opinion.

They get two very winnable road games this week, one of which I'd say that they should win.  Hopefully they'll show us something.

If....err when Lamar makes the tourney, guess who Lamar will face?

UT Longhorns.

It's waaaaaayyyyy to early to be talking NCAA tourney matchups, but playing UT would be fun.  That would be a high scoring game, with UT probably scoring a lot more the LU.

this would be fun, but texas isn't going to be a #1, and lamar won't be anything but a #16 if they get in.

I promise you if Lamar wins the East division, then wins the automatic bid to the NCAA tournament there is no way with the ranking of the SLC this season Lamar will be a 16 seed. Sorry but I disagree here.

Of course, talk of the NCAA tournament is premature at this point in the season.

Last year TAMU-CC was a 15th seed with a RPI around 80 and a 24-6 record.  This year both SHSU and SFA have RPIs around 85, so if one of those teams continues to win then they would probably get a 14 or 15 seed.  Lamar could get a 15 seed if they only lose a few more games, but with a low RPI now and with 8 losses already, I wouldn't be surprised by a 16 seed.

I don't trust the selection committee one bit so a 16 seed wouldn't surprise me one bit.  Back in 2000 win LU snuck in with a .500 record, they deserved a 16 seed.  But if LU keeps getting better and ends up 21-11 or something close to that, then they should get at least a 15 seed.  And there's a big difference between a first seed and the 2nd or 3rd seeds.  We're getting ahead of ourselves, but with the SLC being stronger this year than in year's past, any team the wins the SLC tourney should be at least a 15 seed.

    • This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up   I wish the Ohio AG much success...from the article: Ohio’s Republican Attorney General is pushing back against critics after warning that anti-Israel protesters wearing masks are facing potential prison time due to a little known state law. "The First Amendment protects you and saying whatever it is you have to say. Even hateful things are protected by the First Amendment," Ohio AG Dave Yost told Fox News Digital this week. "The First Amendment, though, was always designed to be a shield against the government. It's not a sword against your fellow students and they have rights too. Your First Amendment rights are limited by their right to be able to go to school, use the library, get the value of their education and the tuition that they paid for." In a letter sent on Monday, Yost warned university presidents of a historic state law that could mean masked anti-Israel demonstrators on college campuses could face felony charges.  "The law is an old law," Yost told Fox News Digital. "It goes back to the 20th century, and it was originally designed to make sure that people like Ku Klux Klan were held accountable, that, of course, the reason that the Ku Klux Klan wore hoods and masks over their faces is so that they couldn't be identified because they were committing crimes. So the General Assembly in Ohio said, okay, you can wear a mask, you can wear a hood, that's fine. But if you commit a crime with two or more other people, while you are masking yourself, we're going to see that as a heightened kind of crime, a worse kind of thing, because you're consciously doing this and trying to hide your identity because you know you're doing something wrong."
    • You keep pointing at the fact that Biden got so many votes as proof of cheating, when it’s actually proof of something else… Trump motivates people to get off of the couch, register, and vote for ANYBODY BUT TRUMP.  And instead of looking in the mirror and recognizing that the problem is you (the person who nominates a candidate that most people HATE) you blame the people who vote against him.    Haley pulled down 22% of the votes in the most recent Republican  primary. Those votes were cast AFTER she’d already dropped out of the race.    Trump is going to lose the fourth consecutive election cycle since he beat the even more unlikable Hillary in  2016. The Dems learned from their mistake (nominating a despised candidate in ‘16). The Rs keep nominating the same guy that most people hate and expecting different results.    Dems roll in November. 
    • Not yet, anyway. If you can't see that there has been a strong effort to create gender dysphoria amongst young folks AND try to keep it from parents in many instances, you're not paying attention. You may not care about this, but it's ridiculous to ridicule those that do. There is an agenda behind this, no doubt about it, like bullets pointed out earlier, it's just a name change...for now. And it was only very recently that girls were allowed to join the "boy scouts", they have been allowed to join certain other groups that weren't available to girls at the time. It's the frog in the slow boil.
