I think that the top 6 (excluding SMU) get a first round bye in the tourney?Here's the final scores from Thursday night AAC Games:
UCF 70, Tulane 62
Temple 83, Tulsa 79 OT
Cincinnati 88, USF 57
UCONN 77, Memphis 57
Current Standings for AAC Tourn (top 6 receive first day bye, SMU not eligible)
SMU 8-2
1) Temple 7-3
1) Cincinnati 7-3
3) UCONN 6-3
4) Houston 6-4
4) Tulsa 6-4
6) UCF 5-4
7) Memphis 4-5
8) ECU 2-7
9) USF 2-9
10) Tulane 1-10
So why does Memphis suck once they got out of C-USA and into a conference with real BB opponents? (yes I'm being slightly sarcastic)
Seriously. Memphis and Temple were suppose to be the big basketball heavy weights additions to the AAC. Neither has lived up to expectations. Then Tulsa, Houston and SMU start getting really good in the AAC. Makes no sense. But it kinda shows that anyone can get good in basketball.
Temple is tied for the #1 seed in this year's AAC Tourn...and is actually ahead of where all the AAC Coaches thought they would finish this season....as this was suppose to be a rebuilding year at Temple.
Here's the AAC Preseason Poll taken back in Oct (over 2 months before it was known UCF's BJ Taylor was lost for the season).
Here's how the current conf tourn seedings at the half-way mark look:
SMU 8-2 (not eligible for post-season)
1) Temple 7-3 (owns tiebreaker vs UC, as Temple swept UC this season)
2) Cincinnati 7-3
3) UCONN 6-3
4) Houston 6-4
4) Tulsa 6-4
6) UCF 5-4
7) Memphis 4-5
8) ECU 2-7
9) USF 2-9
10) Tulane 1-10
