Marshall Basketball: Important C-USA Games This Saturday

If you are like me and want Marshall to get a bye in the Conference USA Tournament you should be rooting for the following outcomes this Saturday.

Memphis @ UTEP : Go Tigers, UTEP needs to keep losing so the Herd and Miners finish with identical league records. If that happens Marshall will hold the tiebreaker with a (hopeful) win over UTEP next Wednesday.

Southern Miss @ UCF : This might be hard for Herd fans but root for UCF. The Knights won’t catch Marshall if we win out. If Southern Miss keeps dropping games tiebreaker projections favor Marshall with both teams finishing at 10 – 6.

Tulane @ Tulsa : I don’t think any one expects Tulane to beat Tulsa on the road but that would be nice. Marshall holds a tie breaker over Tulsa if both teams finish at 10 – 6.
