  1. As bad as the seeding appears to be, it’s evident the committee took into account the MWC’s past poor showings when getting multiple teams into the big dance. SDSU’s #5 seed is a good example of being rewarded for last years run into the championship game. Win some games and maybe the conference will get some respect.

    I actually like UNLV’s chances against Utah. I think the Rebels have faced and beaten better teams during MWC play.

    The last time i checked the Aggies and Broncos are the first place teams with the Aggies holding the top spot since they beat the Broncos twice.  I am having a hard time remembering the humiliating loss the Rebels gave the Aggies.  All I recall is the Aggies making clutch plays like making a 3 point shot while another player was crashing the boards got fouled, made 2 clutch free throws and the team playing solid defense on the last second shot.  It was really humiliating for the Aggies to win that game.

    You should be embarrassed to even call it a win. I prefer to call it a gift.

    That gives Kevin five spots to fill with stud Freshman and the best D1 transfers in College Basketball. UNLV will be unbeatable next year. Nobody is going to beat us now.

    UNLV is the biggest spoiler this league has ever seen. Quite honestly, they are very good. Problem is too many stinkers on their resume to allow for an at large bid.

    No doubt, even if they manage to make it to the final game, there’s no way they get an at large bid. The frustrating part is, there’s only 7 points that separates UNLV from being 11-2 in conference play and alone in 1st place. 1 pt loss to USU, 3 pt loss to CSU and a 3 pt loss to UNR and in all 3 games UNLV should have won, but gave them away in the end.

    And UNLV still looking up to the Rams in the most important metric. The NET rankings. CSU stayed at 25, UNLV moved up to 86. Rams still on track for an at-large. UNLV not so much.

    But can UNLV play the spoiler in the MWCT? With the exception of SDSU, I feel like the Rebels are the team nobody wants to play

    What team would you most not want to play right now?

     

    Rebels are on a hot streak right now winning 4 straight including a road win in the Pit. Rebels have shown they can play with, beat and compete against the top teams in the MW. Rebels lost to both USU and CSU by a combined total of 4 pts. Win those 2 games and The Rebels are 8-2 and sitting alone in 1st place. So I’d say the Rebels are the team nobody wants to play right now or meet in the MWCT.
