Re: Seeding

Big drop off from 4 to 5 seed, but 5-7 winning percentage doesn’t change a ton. 8 has losing record vs 9.

Re: No Court Storm

Didn't even cross my mind. You don't storm the court when you're above the other team in the standings and/or ranked in the same vicinity as them. Would be embarrassing had we stormed it.

I am just curious, why is everyone so confident we won't play the 3rd game? If the U goes into this agreement with every intention of canceling the last game, that makes zero sense for them. Either way, I feel like it is a win for USU. Exactly, why wouldn't they just schedule a home/home with no mo...

Only one site has games before then at 10:10 am and 12:30 pm, can’t imagine that site would be Sacramento with a 9:10 am local first tip.
