By beating Houston tonight, I believe UTEP wrapped up the No. 6 seed in a three-way tie with Marshall and Tulsa. If I understand the tie-breaking procedures correctly, the brackets for next week’s C-USA Tournament will be as follows:

Marshall (8) vs. Tulane (9) = winner plays Memphis (1)
Tulsa (7) vs. East Carolina (10) = winner plays UAB (2)
UTEP (6) vs. SMU (11) = winner plays Houston (3)
Southern Miss (5) vs. Rice (12) = winner plays Central Florida (4)

We’ll know for sure tomorrow when the league releases the bracket and game times.
