Have people lost their damn minds? Every person I hear is talking about if Memphis can hang with MSU. St Louis will take Memphis out BEHIND THE WOODSHED. They'll slow the game down and expose Memphis and the shitty conference they play in. St Louis getting points is an absolute joke

SLU lost to a 5 win Rhode Island team a few weeks ago bc they couldn't handle their guards.Originally posted by TPowellComment -
Plus they just lost to a bad Xavier team that has no business being in the tourney.
St. Louis is a decent team at home.
Memphis is hot 11 of 12 and is the play in this game.Comment -
They handled Washington earlier in the year in a huge fashion. Washington and Memphis are pretty similar, roll the basketball out and hope you have enough talent to win. I would say SLU lost to RI because they didn't show up, not because of anything elseOriginally posted by FriscoComment -

Xavier was playing for their lives, St Louis was comfortably in the tournament. Memphis plays in an AWFUL conference, of course they look "HOT"Comment -
Go look at Memphis and Slu's out of conf schedules. Memphis played some really good teams to close games and won a few of them while Slu played bottom feeders in the power conferences. Have a feeling we are going to agree to disagree on this but SLU isn't the same team outside of St. LouisComment -
kinda disappointed in this matchup. thought both teams could have done some damage, since this is wat we have, would lean to SLU and the points.Comment -
Their best OOC win was against Tennessee without Stokes who couldn't even make the tournamentMemphis lost by nearly double digits to Louisville and also lost to Murray State. Michigan mopped them as wellOriginally posted by FriscoComment -
Memphis >>>>>>>> UWOriginally posted by TPowellComment -
You're really high on St. Louis.
I think this will be a great game. I think both teams are good and whoever wins should challenge Michigan State.Comment -
Really? Any proof to back that up? Washington's resume is just as good as memphis. Pac 12 sucks but cusa isnt even a good mid major leagueOriginally posted by HR PaperstacksComment -
How many teams from the C-USA are dancing? 2. Pac 12? 2 and 1 has to be in the play in game. Pac 12 is worse than almost all the mid major leaguesComment -
be careful fellas.....Memphis easy hereComment -
Theres a reason a cusa team in an 8-9 matchup is a 5 poimt dog. They are overrated. Memphis is still the same team who cant handle well coached teams who wont let them runComment -
Yea the reason is they are playing a team who just beat the best team in the nation to win the SEC. Not that difficult to figure out....Comment -
Did memphis beat vandy? Not a big deal, vandy blew early in thr yearComment -
Michigan St. alum/fans better hope St Louis pulls off the upsetComment -
Msu would beat memphis by double digits easy palComment -
Disagree strongly.....Memphis has final four talent, pre-season top ten, fully healthy and very very dangerous. Michigan St won't blow anyone out in this tourny, (besides the opening round), but could easily get beat by an athletic Memphis team. Buyer beware!Originally posted by TPowellComment -
Got a lot to learn kid. Games are won by gritty basketball in march. They are severely overrated. The jackson kid is an awful pg and the bigs have zero post moves.Comment -
Not sure any of us can learn from college kids, let alone the NBA. Time will tell. Guess you have UL in the Final Four ? I see 5 of the 7 teams in their region they can get beat by. That's garbage! Had Cincy beat them, i could see UL being a 5 seed and being in an easier region.Originally posted by TPowellComment -
No, they are facing msu in sweet 16 whos a final 4 lock.Comment -
i actually agree with you here, i havent seen memphis play since the beg of the year but from what i remember they DONT play defense! the only way they win is in a shootout which i dont think it will beOriginally posted by TPowellComment -
MEMPHIS takes this one easily
they can then commence the sizzurp sippin after the winComment -
Way too much love for Memphis.Comment -
What are you talking about? Memphis is favored, not a dog.Originally posted by TPowellComment -
Kansas St./Southern Miss gameComment -
I see. What does that have to do with Memphis/St. Louis?Originally posted by rm18Comment -
it shows how weak the conference Memphis dominates isComment -
This is a worthless arguement. If you believe this, explain how teams like Memphis, George Mason, Butler and VCU have reached the Final Four. Explain how Louisville and Georgetown from the Big East have lost to teams like Ohio and Morehead St. Explain how Kansas lost to UNI a few years back.Originally posted by TPowellComment -
No, actually it doesn't.Originally posted by TPowellComment -
they have nowhere near final 4 talent and get outcoached against any good team they play... both black and carmouche have injuries and the loss of antonio b. a few weeks ago really hurts the depth...they are my home team, so its easier for me to be more updated, but cmon buddy, do a little research first...Originally posted by CTOWNsCAPPIN
that being said, memphis is playing the best ball of the season and will dictate pace here...where other teams slowly started to run out of gas, even a banged up memphis got stronger at seasons end...and they are making free throws for a change and thats huge for them...a lot of heavy action expected to be on memphis...gl boyzComment -
Sorry but Memphis was loaded when they were making deep runs, this team is far from those. George Mason had a great coach, as well as Butler. VCU was lights out from outside every game basically and they play a difficult style of basketball.Originally posted by convickComment -
Washington is better than MemphisOriginally posted by HR PaperstacksComment -
i love memphisComment
