Thanks for starting this thread!

ECU is going to be good. Saw them live and they have added onto the year they had last year.

To win the conference you have to win the tournament, correct? Even if you have the best Win/Loses at the end?

The winner of the conference tournament, hosted by Wichita State on November 22-24, is the AQ for the NCAA Tournament.

Rice and Wichita are my favorites, maybe Wichita with home court advantage at the tournament.  USF and ECU outside chances.  Do you have to qualify for the tournament???

I'm surprised they gave a 6-2 setter the SOW award when the Freshman of the Week had almost double their average...
