Brooklyn Roll Call

[mkaufman1]

For the 4th and remaining double bye spot

so basically Mason has to beat Fordham, and Fordham has to lose to Duquense and Mason has to beat Richmond so that Mason finishes 11-7 with Fordham.

In addition, Duquense has to lose to Umass and finish 10-8.

Unless I'm missing how GW factors in here and what I'm saying above is all moot.

I’d rather play Fordham again than Dayton again assuming we make the semis.

If everything you described happened and GW wins both their games and there is a three-way tie we might wind up fourth? 1-1 vs GW and 1-0 vs Fordham (2-1); Fordham would be 1-0 against GW and 0-1 against us (1-1) and GW would be 1-1 against us and 0-1 against Fordham (1-2). We’d have the best winning percentage against the teams we are tied with.

Of course if SLU loses one more game (they play Dayton in their final game) then there is a 4 way tie: SLU is 1-0 against Mason and GW and 0-1 against Fordham, which might also give us the tiebreaker as we’d be tied with Fordham and then it goes head-to-head I think? SLU finishes 3rd we finish 4th? I think that’s how it would play out.

Hopefully by 11 pm tomorrow night things will be a bit more clearer and a bit more in our favor

Mason matches up better against Dayton than Fordham.

 

[Falco]

I’ll give mason a shot against any A10 Team.

But it’s hard to beat good teams twice. So honestly give me vcu in the A10 tournament!

3/1 Updated Standings
1) Tied for 5th place
2) will end up no worse than 7th place
3) need a win and a GW Loss and we are no worse than 6th place - vcu at GWU
4) same for a GMU win and a Duquesne loss - Dukes at Fordham
5) even with a Fordham loss we may be out of 4th place

Is there any scenario that has us matching up against SLU in a quarter final game? Think that’s probably our best matchup of the top 4 with how it’s shaping up.

If:

Fordham beats Duquesne
Dayton beats SLU
vcu beats GW
Mason beats Richmond

Then: Fordham is the 3 seed, SLU is the 4, Mason is the 5 and Duquesne is the 6

I can see all of that happening.

 

[gmujim92]

I can see all of that happening.

The two teams we need to stay away from as long as possible in Brooklyn are vcu (duh) and Duquesne. Both are awful matchups for us for different reasons. Stay alive and hope somebody else knocks them off.

 

[jessej]

another/graphic look at where we stand
win and some help = #5 seed
win and no help = #6 seed
lose = #7 seed

What is the help we need to get to #5?

Thanks Jim!

Dayton LOSING to SLU by 9 at the half

other 3 relevant games are tomorrow

---
Dayton loses by 4

 

[GMUYoda]

So we escape with a win in Richmond... that guarantees us the 6 seed at least right?

 

[mkaufman1]

Gw wins- we are 6
Gw loses- we are 5
