IanforHeisman Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 Nevada/Boise/CSU Big game coming up with Boise @Nevada. Broncos will have to play MUCH better this time around to have a chance. CSU and Boise exceeding expectations this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I think they do too.. I could see Fresno getting hot again and winning it, the above 3, maybe UNM. Hell San Jose will probably win a game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been saying it's a fun ride and that the conference tournament will have some upsets. I don't know if I'll be able to make it to Vegas for the tourney, but I'm definitely going to try! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mad_Hatter Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 This year the bracket means a whole bunch. I'm a bleed blue Nevada fan and I think Fresno or SDSU find their rhythm and get it done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BacksThePack Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 I'm sure just about everyone is pulling for some SJSU magic, I'd love an SJSU run to the finals. 1 seed will come down to final game of the season probably. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Los Lobos are only 1.5-games behind the 3-tied-for-1st, and New Méx handled the Rams decisively earlier this yr on-the-rd. Both games are key match-ups going down the stretch run.

sdsuphilip4 Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 Toughest SOS remaining by kenpom 1. CSU 102.25 2. BSU 149.5 3. Nevada 153.5 Also Nevada gets both BSU and CSU at home, they should be pretty heavy favorite to win the regular season conference crown 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wolfpack1 Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 Nevada has Boise st, UNLV, San Jose St and Colorado St on the schedule and none of them are give me games especially with Nevada struggling a bit on the road this year. My co-worker and i were talking last night saying unless Nevada pulls a job, it really could come down to Boise game and Colorado st games for them to win the conference. However I still stand by saying, I will be surprised if the #1 or #2 seed wins the tournament, I don't see it happening. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SleepingGiantFan Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 Finishing first, second, third or fourth doesn't matter. NOBODY is dominant this year in this league. What matters is finishing in the top five and entering the tournament with positive momentum rather than negative momentum. 1 Quote Boom goes the dynamite.

wolfpack1 Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 You could still finished below 5th and have momentum going into the tournament, all you have to do is get hot in the tournament. However to me it does matter if you do finish first and maybe possibly second for the conference because then you are still looking at playing basketball after the MWC tournament. Finishing below that who knows. However right now I think San Diego St and Colorado St could be playing the best basketball at this point in the season.
