Still crickets from the ticket office about Tech tickets. Has anyone heard anything other than what's been sent via email? I guess I'll check in with Myles at the JMU game.

Va Tech wins by 2. Minimal movement from #56 to #55, but good for solidifying their position.

How much would their net have dropped if they lost?

Some games of interest today on tv:

vcu (favored by 3) vs S Florida at 2:30 ESPN2
Va Tech (favored by 2) vs Col St at 5 ESPNU
URI (favored by 4) vs Temple at 7:30 ESPNU

URI wins by 15; Kenpom now has them at #95, making them the 6th team in the A10 in the top 100.

Can't tell as I don't know whatever algorithm is used.

It would depend on 2 things: 1) how much they lost by and 2) the ranking of Col St.
Col St had been as high as #50 but lost their previous game by 2 to a #261 Denver team for their first loss of the year. That dropped Col. St to #82 which is their current ranking as well.

I would suggest you contact Taylor Bosket. He is the Mason ticket guy. Myles is Patriot Club, so unless the PC is putting together a bus trip, I'm not sure Myles could help.

I guess we want vcpoo i mean vcwho to beat #24 Vandy today. Yuck.

Also Dayton to beat a surprisingly good Georgetown... as well as St. Louis to beat Santa Clara today

No! We do not want a vcu victory. They can go 0 for the season and I would be happy.
And yes, I do understand the conference stuff.

Huh?

I spoke to Taylor at the Womens game against FGCU - they were still waiting to hear from VAT then and I would imagine that is still the case. Having gone to most of the recent away games at P4 teams, we are always at their mercy for seat allotments.

Richmond takes their first loss of the season... falls 73-72 to Furman

Richmond had their chances though

VT playing St. Marys on ESPN right now... VT down 11 at the half, 31-20

 

[Walter]

I wanted Tech undefeated when we played them.

Dayton in danger of pissing this one away. Seems to be a pattern with Anthony Grant’s Dayton teams that they struggle to execute down the stretch…

Kenpom ratings of top programs in A10:

SLU #49
vcu #51 play as a 1 pt favorite over #62 Va Tech Fri morning
GW #61
GMU #64
Dayton #71 play as a 10 pt underdog vs #8 BYU Friday evening
URI #95
Richmond #108
St Bona #119

 

[NewPatriot]

Alot of teams in

GW #61
GMU #64
Dayton #71 play as a 10 pt underdog vs #8 BYU Friday evening

Here is some Irony

GW lost to Murray State...Mason has Murray State's former starting center, Nick Ellington, coming off the bench.

Dayton eeked out a victory over Georgetown; Mason are starting the guard, Jahari Long, who would have started of ahead Georgetown Guard Deshawn Harris Smith at Maryland.

It just goes to show how deep this team is.

SLU gets 5-1 Stanford this evening

I don't do betting, but am I reading the line right? Vcpoo is favored over VT? Line currently is Vcpoo -1.5
