AnkielBreakers Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 Hard to believe that they open with Lindenwood and will face SLU 3 times during the regular season. Crazy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taj79 Posted August 11, 2022 Author Share Posted August 11, 2022 Just what Built said. They have nothing at home worthwhile to see except maybe SMU. I think someone over in the other thread did the kenPom rankings for everyone they play and nothing measures up as far as teams coming to Dayton to play. I guess they will get UNLV and VA Tech at home next year if these are home-and-home contracts. A lot of us complain about our non-con home schedule (and I might be one of them at times) but this is the plight of the decent mid-level program --- no one wants to come to your house to play because winning there is a tough road to hoe. This is the second year Dayton has gone to Chicago to play; last year I believe they lost to Colorado on a buzzer beater. What does Dayton have to do with Chicago? I can't believe 20,000 Chicagoland types are filing into the United Center to watch the Flyers and another team from the Rockies battle it out. I'll ask my Dayton counterpart what the feeling is in the Gem City over this schedule. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brighton Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 I know a loss to Lindenwood would hurt the A10, but whatever. I want chaos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, that, and the golden rule: Screw Dayton. In either case, Lindenwood is not going to win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Elrond Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 Lindenwood went 12-17 last year, and lost in the first round of their tournament. They played two exhibition games, and lost to us (SLU) 89-66, and lost to Northwestern 85-40. Very hard to see them beating Dayton. I will be curious to see how they do in the OVC.
