. . . your numbers are even, but your analysis is odd . . . ain't nobody making the tournament from the Sunbelt with a 16-14 record, trust me . . .

Only thing to trust is my final analysis. You win the final game of the SBC tourney you're in. Your regular season record does not matter at that point.

If we were fortunate enough to have southern miss drop another one, who has the tie breaker, if we have same conference record and split the home and home?

We have the tiebreaker if I am reading everything correctly. That is assuming Marshall wins out as well.

Lack of defense and too much one on one dribbling. Never could find an open man. Sloppy basketball. I said before we would lose to a good team if we played like this and tonight we did.

I think we had a gameplan, which was to go to JB and we executed it, ultimately at the expense of getting everyone else involved. When JB got that good start early in the game, coach just started feeding everything through him and the ball slowed down a lot. At times, when we did run nice motion sets, we got good inside looks but we never took advantage of the double and triple teams on JB with kick out passes to shooters. In the second half this worked in their favor. They could let JB get the ball and dribble around the lane with it and just cover our shooters
