Nothing worse than scumbag refs with an agenda.

Yeah. God forbid employees get fired in the officiating profession. Let's just send them to screw over athletes in another league.

I’m really hoping the Pokes can win a tourney game but I watch games like this and they are so sloppy.

I’ll give them a little slack because they’ve been blowing out guys lately but I’m curious what their highest seed could be? 13? 14?

No Southland team has ever been above a 12 I don’t think

I don’t care what we are. I just want to show everyone we are a good team in the first round of the tourney. Our net is still only 54

If they win out, they should get a 12 seed. Only thing that scares me on the seeding is the NCAA hatred for Wade. Do they try and screw McNeese with a 14 seed?

I think it will be a 13 or 14 just because their Kenpom and Net are in the 50s

Free throw shooting is a concern. They are gooing to have to hit some high pressure free throws and they haven't been great at that.

Totally agree. Other issue is they don’t have a lot of depth, you saw last night what can happen when Shumate gets into foul trouble.

That’ll be the strategy the blue bloods employ for the big dance with the willful participation of game officials.

La Tech was. 5 seed in 1985 with Karl Malone. They were Southland Conf at that time

Joe lunardi is pretty spot on and he hasn't had them close to a 14 seed for most of the year.

They actually do have depth having used 9 for most of the season and now starting to get a 10th in Berze for a few points a game (5-7) in 5 minutes or so.

Other than Shumate believe the rest of the team is in the 70-80% range for Free Throws. Collum and Felder are good from the line for being big men... Wells, richards, Garcia and Saunders all are more than adequate from the line.

Stating the obvious here but beating a 4/5 seed in first game makes them prolly a very slight underdog in 2nd round game IF they would get there. Can't wait for conference tournament see which of the other 4 (Corpus, Lamar, Nichols or SE) can give them the best game in Semis/Final
