A win on Saturday would move UCF up to a tie with Houston for third in The American.

Important game against Houston Saturday.

UCF needs to finish 6-3 or better and win a couple tourney games to get in as an at large. Only games where they will be big dogs will be Cincy and Wichita State. Saturday’s game is basically a must win though.

Wichita State and Cincy are the only games where ESPN BPI gives UCF less than a 30% chance. However the Wichita State game is at 27%. Presumably because it is a home game. Still think it would be a big upset to win that one. Does Kenpom factor the Tacko injury?

No kenpom doesnt account for injuries. Goes both ways because the sample size of this seaons data only accounts for 5 games of bj. I still think wichita is a very good team, but they're looking fairly pedestrian right now. Just lost to a temple team that we trampled.

HUGE game today. Hope a big crowd turns out to support the guys. (Free double header with women's game vs Memphis to immediately follow the UH game).

WSU just beat us by over 20 2 games ago. Pedestrian?

Noon, ESPNU.

If we beat UH don't we go ahead of them by tie breaker?
