How did GWU get so high??

After their bad home loss to Delaware--put them in the 80s, I think--they lost by 10 to Florida (#13) on neutral court.
But subsequently beat Richmond away by 14 and blew out LaSalle by 22 at home. Put them back in the 60s. Losing by 7 at Dayton dropped them from 63 to 67.

Their overall offensive efficiency is 31st nationally--7 games with 90+ pts--and 1st in A10.

Billikens crack the ESPN top 25:

24. Saint Louis Billikens (14-1)​

Previous ranking: Unranked

Saint Louis landed a statement win Wednesday, going to vcu -- the Billikens' stiffest competition for the Atlantic 10 title -- and knocking off the Rams by nine. Saint Louis led by 14 before vcu came all the way back to take the lead, then the Billikens finished the game on a 10-0 run. It was Saint Louis' most impressive win of the season, and the Billikens' lone loss was by one point to Stanford in late November on a 3-pointer with 0.8 seconds left. Don't be surprised to see Josh Schertz's team go on a long winning run, either; it's likely to be heavily favored in every game until at least late February.

Next seven days: at La Salle (Jan. 10), vs. Fordham (Jan. 14)

Fordham beats St. Bonaventure 81-77

What happened to St. Bonaventure? Went in to conference play on such a high

What happened to St. Bonaventure? Went in to conference play on such a high

They’re the only team without a win in the conference. They play St. Joes, La Salle, and Loyola in their next 3. If they have a losing record in those 3 games they just might be cooked.

Spread was 7.5. We won by 8

This is what happens when Mark Schmidt loses his right hand man, Steve Curran, to Tony Skinn.

The Bonnie's descent and Mason ascent in the A10 coincide with Steve Curran's arrival and tenure in Fairfax Virginia

[GMUgemini]

It was a coup to pry him away for sure.

But I also just think Schmidt hasn’t adjusted well to the NIL era either.

But this is surprising to me this year. They looked pretty good in the OOC games I watched of them. I have no idea what’s going on over there.

Wild end to Tech vs. SMU. Tech pissed down their own leg. It double screws us because SMU is just slightly ahead of us in getting votes.

Never understood how St. Bonny was good for so long and how decent, good players would want to go there prior to NIL. Upstate NY with ton of snow/middle of nowhere, a joke of an arena and court, School campus is tiny and very small enrollment, big "religious" school.

They had their time at being good, now they can suck.

Went ahead and picked up St louis @ mason tickets, gonna be a big game!!

An answer your question. He should be the next in line.

Nothing wrong with being a big religious/Christian school.

 

[GSII]

Dayton seem too low. They have played a hell of a schedule.

Nothing wrong with it. Crazy this religious school is in the A10 with how small their enrollment is and location - should be like a D II or D III school even.
