Tonight’s another reason moving to the ASun was good for is. We had TobyMac and Karen Kingsbury in the stands watching us.

Given our last few performances.Chances of a loss happening again, good.
I think we lose this one. I wish it were not true and I hope I am wrong but we are outmatched IMHO.

wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong.
Glad I was. Who the heck was that team out there? What a performance.
I was at church all night and I was pumped when I saw us up by 13 in the first half ----
We beat a very strong team and showed we belong.
Maintain this type of drive and we can make a splash.

I had to google who Karen Kingsbury was....I'm not sure what that says about me.

Same here. I was assuming she was a contemp. Christian singer. Wow! 25 million books in print. She probably uses her salary as an adjunct professor of writing at LU to pay her kid's allowance. Former sports writer for the LA times, so it makes sense she would be into a basketball game

Was this the BIGGEST win ever for our men's basketball team? Nah, I can't put it ahead of any of the 3 BSC championship games that got us into the Big Dance. I also would put our first wins over VT and UVA ahead of it (even though the teams we beat were really not very good) because they were milestones in showing we could compete with the state "big boys".

Was it the BEST win ever? I've been thinking about that, and I believe it was. I certainly think they are the best team we have ever beaten

+1 Thank you for reconciling this for me.

The UCLA win will turn heads of recruits, their parents, and LU fans/strangers; but for those who really know college basketball, Lipscomb was definitely the BEST team that we beat this year (and maybe ever).

[BJWilliams]

Here's the thing down the stretch. If we both win out, having both beaten each other on each other's floor, it will come down to NET to determine the top seed. Add to that, if we end up playing in a rubber match in the ASUN tournament final, you have to think both teams will be in the discussion for the Big Dance, regardless who wins

I was hopeful about the UCLA win when it looked like they had righted the ship with 3 straight wins following the coaching change. Since then they are 3-6 (6-6 under Bartow) and in their last game they needed OT to beat a really bad Cal team that has now lost 13 straight. It no longer counts as a quality win for any selection committee.

There is almost no chance the A sun is a 2 bid league unless something crazy happens.

gutty win with the foul trouble we were in down the stretch. I honestly thought we would lose. I will says Lipscomb has to be the whiniest team I have seen in a long time. questioning every call....

Darn, my sources had the same breaking news, but Super Jon beat me to it.

Especially after getting spotted 8 points off phantom calls in the final 5.

Those who totally dismiss at large opportunity for asun might want to look at recent history. Both liberty and lipscomb played the the
Non conference slate to get consideration. I would never say its a slam dunk but its 50/50 imho if both teams win their 4 reg season games plus 2 tourney games and then loser of title game.

Truth is net is new and we dont know how committee will regard it. Both teams should end up in mid 40s which will be enough to warrant strong consideration.

If we lose in title game and win the rest and dont make it that austin peay loss will make us sick.

[Class of 20Something]

The goal of the NET was to make sure that a Top 40 never missed the dance. Lipscomb is probably safe if they lose the conference final. Liberty is not. We control our own destiny.

[Jonathan Carone]

If Lipscomb loses to us again they likely won’t be top 40.

I agree with what was already said but the fact it's being brought up by the likes of Lunardi and other pundits is a big win. Hopefully this will get all the ASUN schools to limit the non d1 games to 1.
