2014 Texas Southern Basketball Thread

In case you haven't seen "the fight" video, here it is:

Still waiting to hear an official announcement from The SWAC and TSU about if there will be any ejections/suspensions.

The video clearly shows that Southern's Pugh went on hearsay to The Advocate (which was picked up nationally by the AP) and pitted the blame on two of our girls out of nowhere, otherwise, this wouldn't have happened:
Southern dismissed reserve guard Keonia Parrish from the women’s basketball program and suspended forward Kenidi Robinson for the remainder of the season on Monday for their roles in a brawl with Texas Southern in a game last Saturday.

This is my favorite sports week until TSU loses (hopefully they don't)
 
If the Chronicle, print edition, has their information right Alabama State is ineligible for the automatic bid to the NCAA tournament just like Southern. So, todays match-up with PV is for the automatic bid folks. We need a good crowd today. You social media types start spreading the word.

Yes, this is correct.

We've been on it since last night! 
 
Ladies and gentlemen, it's Selection Sunday! What are your predictions?

WHOOO HOOO! GO TIGERS BACK2BACK IN YOUR FACE!

Texas Southern University, an institution building champions since 1927, will get a #15 seed likely.  The first #15 seed for the SWAC since the millennium I'm sure.  I have high expectations, I like the momentum we have right now, I like the chemistry, I like our uniforms lol .....

I was watching the E. Washington (team we lost too) vs Montana game last night. E. Washington won which punched them a ticket to the Big Dance so I'm hoping that strengthens our resume that much more and we end up maybe with a #14 seed but that's asking for much I know but you never know. I didn't expect for SMU not to make it last year, I remember being in shock ... they even had their fans, cheerleaders and band in the gym waiting for a bid LOL.

I'm also hoping Michigan State wins the Big Ten tournament, that's the strongest thing left that can get us to a #14 .... I'll be watching that game.

So I have the slightest idea who we will play but I don't understand why there's no rounds of games in Texas (like the biggest state in the country lol). Anyway, I'll be watching the selection show with the rest of the nation
 
OK you guys this game is within our grasp. UofA is not a Kentucky and the Pac 12 is the weakest of the traditional power conferences this year so they not all that.

Arizona beat UTEP by 5 points.

UTEP lost to NMSU by 7 points.

We lost to NMSU by 2 points. See where I'm going with this.
 
Time to get on our homework that's for sure. I see a lot of U of A visitors lurking around in here... Hi! Me personally, I have ties to ASU so I'd like to beat them that much more

I heard for the first time that we play to our opponent weaknesses and that's what made us special .... I didn't know that lol.  I'll be watching Bracketology 101 tonight to get better grasp of UofA and the whole lucky field in general.
