We have 4 games after tonight against PIG teams, and another two that are against Richmond and Rhode Island - Richmond we proved to be nothing special, and Rhode Island has not looked good. I like our chances to win all 6 of those even though five of them are on the road. If we win all six of those and go .500 @ Mason/vs Dayton/vs & @ Bonnies/@ Davidson/vs VCU then we're sitting at 12-5 in conference play and that's a pretty comfortable spot. Realistically I think we go above .500 in those tougher games, and beating Davidson on the road would put us back in fringe at-large territory. Or, fock 'em, let's win em all billiken_roy and BuiltFordBills like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cowboy II Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 -why does the line from the preview blurb "GW is the worst 3pt shooting team in the A10 at 29%" ring as a warning? rgbilliken and billiken_roy like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taj79 Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 Saturday's game is a key indicator ----- can we win on the road in Pittsburgh where we traditionally don't do well against a PIG-level team in Duquesne? willie likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As right now I see the remaining playing out as: GW - W Dukes - W GMU -L UD - W La salle - W Bonnies - W Bonnies L La salle - W Davidson - L Joeys - W Richmond - W RI - W VCU - W If we beat @ GMU, I think I may change the @Bonnies to a W Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most vividly though, most of this team will remember last season's 82-75 loss at Gola, second game back after the Pause. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I know. But the game is still listed as an L with no asterisk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fraz Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 Anyone know the status on Ricky Lindo? All I can find on Twitter is game time decision. Will probably depend on if I bet -17.5 or not Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsBeliever!!! Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 I know UMass and GW aren’t very good but it is encouraging to see the energy that we are playing with in defense and offense compared to the Dayton/Fordham/@UMass games. Hopefully it translates to good games against the top teams in the conference Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A10Ref Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 Also, any Bona/Schmidt believers, don’t check their score right now. Just check after this game, they may go on a crazy run to finish the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taj79 Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 Davidson and Bonaventure are same team —— five deep, decent big man, decent point guard, decent coaches. And each is one major injury away from calamity. Davidson has better shooters; the Bonnie’s are more physical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
