FIU, Middle Tennessee, WKU, and Rice are the winners today

[STexMiner]

I think I'll put Rice through, seeing as they're up 26 with 6:00 left.

(10) FIU v. (2) UTEP 12:00 CDT/11:00 MDT

(6) Middle Tennessee v. (3) ODU 2:30/1:30ish

(5) WKU v. (2) UAB 6:00/5:00

(9) Rice v. (1) La Tech 8:30/7:30ish

So, we got the lowest seed remaining.

Rice looked really good tonight. That is a scary team right now. What if...?

Middle Tennessee beat Old Dominion and Western Kentucky beat UAB this year. However, both those games were at home.
But it proves they are capable. Rice seems to be playing good basketball (they are very well coached), but I don't see them knocking off Louisiana Tech. Then again, if La Tech has a shooting night like they did at Old Dominion, well who knows.
First things first, lets beat FIU and get to Friday.

I think Rice is going to make a game of it. They are playing good ball, minimizing mistakes and TOs, and making shots. If they can slow LaTech down and control the tempo, it could be interesting.

UNT played crappy perimeter defense. They need a lot of work.

In case you haven't noticed, the Rice guards, Guercy, Mency and Jackson are something special. They could easily control the game against La Tech.

Be aware of RICE

they scare me too and they have great shooters. They also have a very good recruiting class coming in next year so Rice will be tough.
