uri has their Jr PG back after a long absence for sickness. Their rotation is now deep bec they have played the people even though it cost them some games. Dayton beat them twice by a total of 4 points. Leaviunbg aside the automatic bid, every game is sudden death for them...they won't improve their rpi in a big way but I think they get it reasonably close to strong bubble at least. There is no question in my mind they will get to the tourney finals of A10...I actually think they will win it if Hurley doesn't screw it up.
There I said it. Believe me it's not saying much because I have been watching a bunch of A10 games lately and the league is a D-O-G this year.
Iverson and Martin can play with anybody in the league. Matthews has seemed to find his game a little and with Terrell and Garret and some nifty reserves, they compare favorably to Dayton and VCU. KAEO one of the reserves Stanford Robinson....he's coming on. URI can be wildly inconsistent and lethargic but their backs are to the wall the rest of the way...if tha doesn't keep them motivated nuttin will.
Dayton is playing for a lot because I think Miller would like to move up to a better conference somewhere....same for Hurley but I don't see that happening even with a Dance appearance.
Anyway we shall see how it all plays out.

Vtech gets a big win for us. Gave Clemson another heartbreaker and they fall to 4-11 in the ACC.
NC st up on Gtech in the 2nd.

Georgia Tech goes down at home to NC State, after almost coming back from 9 down with 47 seconds left. Watching that was painful, and it's obvious to see why Gottfried was/ is getting canned.
So far a good night for life on the bubble with Clemson and Georgia tech losing while Ole Miss and Indiana are in close games where a loss will probably eliminate both teams. Marquette and Wichita St both won, but neither was all that surprising. There is a definite path for PC, winning tomorrow would move us up several spots.

Indiana about to lose at Iowa. They are pretty much done. Ole miss wins at Miss st.
Overall, good night for us. Gtech and Clemson were the biggest ones, and Indiana falling off is big.
Marquette losing would have helped, but at the same time we want our road win and possible sweep to look legit vs them. 6 BE teams is starting to look like a legit possibility, but 7 won't happen, so we will have to jump one or both of them. Really hope SHU loses at home to X tomorrow.
A ton of big games tmrw.
Great opportunity ahead. We'll see what this team is made of.
