ITS GAMEDAY!!!

Today Tulsa Men travel to California to take on the Loyola Marymount Lions. This is our last Non Conference game of the season. We open Conference play on Dec 28.

Only one big change in the NET. Temple who was a 180 dropped 22 spots after losing by 8 at home to University of Maryland Eastern Shore who was a 305 NET.

Todays games

Detroit mercy travels to Cincinnati which should be a good game
High Point is at East Carolina. They are fairly even on the NET so this could be a good game as well.
Houston is taking on some cannon fodder in McNeese before the start of conference play.

And One

The winter storm that has come through the northern states this week has postponed or cancelled 4 games today. The one that impacts this thread is the South Dakota vs Oral Roberts game. The SDSU and ND games were also postponed.

Also Hall of Famer and hero of the Immaculate reception Franco Harris passed away today. His number is supposed to be retired this weekend in Pittsburgh during a ceremony on the 50th anniversary of that game.

GO TU!!!!

I don’t see many wins in conference I hope I am wrong. I watched some of SMU games in Hawaii tournament they looked good.

Well SMU has only won 5 games. So apparently they are not that good. They just probably looked good that day against that team.
 
I hope you are right we need to show much improvement to get many more wins. Our 1st shot defense has been good just can’t get the rebound. We shoot the ball pretty good just poor rebounding costs us too many games.

I hope so as well. We all knew this would be a rough year.
 
So they beat #58 iona, #22 Utah St, and lost a close one to home team Hawaii at #111.(net scores) Not a bad tourney for them. Guess they started to figure things out.
