Postby jkflamebo » Mon Nov 06, 2006 4:21 pm

Men as a 3 seed are set up to go against the winner of UC Santa Barbara/San Diego St. and the women are set to go against Mcneese St., if they win we go against A&M yet again this year in the tourney

This is the link. UAB only other C-USA team to get in. Again, no respect. This is a championship the Mustangs need to win both for SMU as well as the conference.

The men's team got jobbed here.

We're No. 2 in the country. We won the conference tournament. The No. 1 team lost in its conference tournament. And SMU ends up as the No. 3 seed?

Make 'em pay, Ponies!

Looks like our first game will be at home on Wednesday, November 15. We need a big turnout.

Does anything happen on campus to promote these games?

Not really. Maybe a few random posters in the dorms that get torn down pretty quick.

Just look at it like we one of the top 4 No. 1 seeds in the tournament. My gosh, we get Wescott all the way to St. Louis so you can't argue with that. Now, we have to take care of business to get there. There is probably more pressure on this team than any other Shellas has coached.

By the way, should our women just book tickets to College Station every year. This is such a beating. But now, let's beat the Gaggies.

Best wishes to both.

People will come, there was a big turnout for the South Carolina game and it was freezing...

And word of mouth goes a long way on a college campus...it can just be people sitting eating or in class or walking and if they're talking about it, people will over hear

Orsini should place a fake student on campus that is marketing and talks about sports all the time :)

The team that should be angry about getting screwed is UK. It is hard to believe that the ncaa found 26 teams better than UK to selct.

both kentucky and south carolina were worthy of bids. i think they'd wallop gardner-webb and/or western illinois each. i thought south carolina would definitely get a bid, they looked very very impressive

UK and USC are definitely the two teams that got screwed. Even though we didn't end up with our rightful #1 seed, we still get homefield throughout and hopefully can turn it into something special
