Regional Title Game Tomorrow

[Big Buds]

It's going down...I feel it...I hope these girls are ready to play!

Prather said an NCAA rep told Steve that yesterday at Tiger Park. So they're running that whole article off of hearsay instead of getting the NCAA rep on the record or quoting a rulebook.

I was surprised when I heard the above earlier this morning. It certainly is not what is in the rulebook.

How is it our fault that they could have started much earlier on Saturday and Sunday when they had the chance?

Back end of bad weather is in E. HOUSTON South thru Galveston.....it raised a lot of Hell over here this morning. Radar doesn't look good at all for us. We ____ in our own nest last night and we have no one to blame but ourselves....

Wild guess here..... the same NCAA rep who went against both coaches wishes to play the game this morning??

I believe he is yanking your chain............

Well he yanked it. I just started the Japanese suicide ritual just before I read your post......you saved my life.

Or also likely Stevie P heard wrong.

I've never seen an NCAA event get stopped based on time. It's always determined by start time not end time

A cell just moved over Tiger Park, small clearing that another one coming.

This is my experience as well. There have been situations in the past (NCAA baseball) where an inning cannot start after a designated time (1am) ... but that is in the situation where you can resume the following day.

The NCAA will have egg on its face if a game cannot be played today (given the 1pm start time) and LSU is advanced.

The NCAA will have more egg on its face if Game #7 is stopped mid-game (moreso if the Cajuns are winning) due to an 11pm curfew ... and LSU is advanced.

Polls arent factored into selections

[Cajunrunner]

This may be the case, but it still a ____ty way to end the season for our girls.

Agree. When you have two Top 20 teams facing off in a heated matchup, a game can definitely go either way. 2 out of 3 is fair.

LSU beats us again today, I'm satisfied that we at least got three shots at them.

That is easy. Polls have nothing to do with NCAA seedings. LSU had a stronger RPI than the Cajuns which is a large part of their decision making (although very flawed). Cajuns RPI ended up at #17.
