Houston held off Southern Miss 74-66 in the other C-USA Semi-Final to earn the chance to play for an automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament. The Miners will have a chance to avenge their only loss to a C-USA team this year. Remember, game is at 9:30 a.m. MST and will be televised nationally on CBS (Hooray for not having to watch UTEP over an internet stream!)

Upset City: UAB Falls to Southern Miss 58-44

Angelo Johnson and Gary Flowers were too much for Mike Davis' futile Blazers. 44 points? Something told me that USM would finally get past the Blazers (they had two tough losses earlier in the year), but I had no idea that they would get beat like that. Mike Davis: four years in Birmingham and no tournament appearances. Remember when Davis wouldn't make a guarantee to DeMarcus Cousins that he'd stay in Birmingham if he committed? Now, you have to wonder if his seat is warming. Conference USA is now a one bid league unless UTEP loses in the C-USA Tournament. It's a shame. UAB and Memphis were both in excellent positions to get into the tournament but it seems highly unlikely either team gets in now.

The Bubble Goes Pop: Aubrey Coleman & Co. Stun Memphis 66-65

N-I-T! N-I-T! Aubrey Coleman hit a shot with 4 seconds to go to knock Memphis out of the C-USA Tournament in a shoot-out. Memphis beat writer Dan Wolken now knows that it's NIT Time for the Tigers. The game was not without controversy; Willie Kemp drained a shot as time expired, seemingly giving the Tigers the win, but the referee's called a double dribble just before he got the shot off. An incredible game.
