Around the A-10: 2024–25 Edition
- Thread starter SFspidur
- Start date
Huge 2nd half comeback for the Flyers - I can't help but root for Malachi Smith - given his multiple injuries that started when in the A10 tourney game against us in '22
A-10 goes 7–2 today with Dayton over Marquette, Bona over Providence, and VCU over Colorado State. Only losses were La Salle to UNC and of course us.
Spiders dead last in the A-10 in KenPom at 209, though Duquesne (205) and UMass (206) aren't much better.

Good wins by the A10 tonight with Bonnies over Providence, VCU over Colorado State, and Dayton over Marquette. Bonnies, VCU, Dayton, Loyola, and Rhode Island in good chance to be at-large with a good A10 performance. Key OOC games left for at-large bids:
Loyola v. U. San Francisco
VCU v. New Mexico
Dayton v. Cincinnati
Dayton v. UNLV
George Mason v. Duke (if Mason pulls this off they will certainly be back in at-large convo)
Temple v. Rhode Island
Less key for team getting at-large but still good wins for A10
SLU v. Illinois State
SLU v. Grand Canyon
Davidson v. Temple
Virginia Tech. SJU
Arizona State v. UMass
Loyola v. U. San Francisco
VCU v. New Mexico
Dayton v. Cincinnati
Dayton v. UNLV
George Mason v. Duke (if Mason pulls this off they will certainly be back in at-large convo)
Temple v. Rhode Island

I won't disclose my exact conversation but suffice to say I dropped a few Woj bombs on him. Good sized contingent made the trip, or maybe a lot of area Bonnies fans.

He uses kenpom for reference, and then says A 10 is stacked? Not according to kenpom, they aren't.
