Stat geeks— if we beat WSU
- Thread starter unihorn
- Start date
WSU is a perrineal bottom dweller in the PAC 12. They did have a good start before their last 2 defeats to lesser teams?
I would compare it to our win over Nebraska a few years ago.

2014 Washington State
2013 Tennessee, Washington State
2012 Oregon, Nebraska
2011 Clemson, Auburn
2010 Michigan, Texas Tech
It hasn't happened in 4 years, so it would be a great win.

Memphis was in CUSA when we beat them. That doesn't count. Plus, the AAC isn't a P5 conference so you are wrong either way.
There was a very similar discussion not too long ago. Don't remember the count. Maybe somebody else does?
So what are the Zags and Uconn? Also what is Utah? When Memphis was in CUSA they were always ranked. Memphis could play in any Conference. Also what about the Big East and A10? I think in College Basketball you have some big time programs that dont play in P5 conferences. Instead of talking about Utep beating P5 teams. We got to talk about Quality Wins. To me Tim Floyds biggest win is when they beat Memphis at Memphis.
We aren't talking about ranked teams, we are talking about beating teams in P5 conferences. Gonzaga plays in the West Coast Conference, which is obviously not a major conference. Utah plays in the Pac 12 and are a P5 team.
Also, Memphis wasn't always ranked when they were in CUSA.
Memphis wasn't even ranked when Floyd beat them in 2011 @ Memphis.

I would say Floyd's biggest win was in 2012 against Oregon in a triple overtime thriller. Oregon ended up going to the Sweet 16 that year.
Beating P-5 school in basketball doesn’t have the same clout as doing it in football. There’s a lot of good teams in basketball that aren’t in a P- 5 conference.
We did. We have played a lot of P5 schools the past ten years as well as a lot of good mid-major teams like New Mexico, UNLV, Fresno St. Colorado St., Boise St., BYU, Murray St, Richmond, St. Mary's, Butler and of course Memphis.

Plus, in the grand scheme of things, it means nothing if you aren't going for an at large bid.
Of course, but in the grand scheme of things, it means nothing.
Grand scheme= making the Big Dance
Dang I had forgotten about that game. Liked their coach Tim Miles. Guy was class act there and colorado state.
When do UTEP lose to Iowa St this season? I think you meant South Carolina?
