Something thankfully I have a dress rehearsal this weekend for an upcoming go-live at work so won't be tempted to purchase last minute seats - Hoping we keep it respectably close ..

respectably close. Mooney has beat us down this low.
Moon is 2-14 at VCU. His average loss there is 15 pts. His closest losses at VCU are 7 & 8 pts. Every other loss is by double digits. U will hear all about competing and the challenges vcu brings from Moon. Hello we don't even compete at VCU. maybe change it up, how we need to win to make a rivalry, how we expect to win even tho an underdog. maybe have Dusan or AP yell 'Eyebrows' after every bucket. I swear Moon's scared as schoolgirl vibe doesn't help us.
worst rivalry coach of all time. 9-25 overall and loses by 15 pts on average at vcu. Over 16 games. coach for life sample. nobody within the program cares. unless u count fans and this board but we know this board doesn't count. heck I bet many within UR think actually we do pretty well vs VCU. Little Ol' Richmond.
I think Moon has auto extension if he keep the @VCU game within single digits i.e. respectably close. idk checking with student17.
Message after the last game from Bob Black was just how close the league is and if you win a couple, you can go from play-in to being in position for a Top 4. True, but we have lost 6 in a row, and are going in the wrong direction. Hey Bob and Mooney apologists, we are in last place in the A-10. 15th. We are going to be playing in the pillow fight division at the A-10 tourney.
The VCU game will dispel any lasting myth that we are one of the worst, possibly the worst team in the A-10 this year. But I'm sure the apologists will still find a way to tell us, what we all see is really not as bad as it looks. News flash, it is. We are terrible. We have 5 Division 1 wins, it is February. Truly one of the worst programs in the country this year.

Hey, the simulations say we still have a 0.83% chance of avoiding the pillow fight!
Though they also say we have a 0.00% chance of a Top 4 finish, Bob.
If VCU did not lose this week to St. Louis and had we just eaked out a win vs. GW, I would feel 1% better about this game. Maybe we could sneak up on VCU as the look past us, but I doubt that will happen now. And I have a feeling Odom, given the recent loss will look to make this a 20 point game if possible for NET reasons. VCU needs that NET ranking to be in the 40's-50's by the end of the season and with very few losses. So if beating us by 20+ keeps them holding steady in the NET - then they will do it. Plus - given our lack of offensive lately, I think they will look to pressure us and cause turnovers.
Good news - if we get down by 20 early - maybe we get a GW3 sighting?

Correct. VCU is gonna be mad and they are going to take it out on us. Watching them play, it is not going to be pretty. They are aggressive all of the time, they attack the offensive glass, they out athlete us at every position.
1. Could this make it an 18 pt game instead of 25?
2. Isn't Collegiate in Henrico County? Someone needs to tell the VCU AD what Odom is doing.
If VCU just plays its normal game, & we play our normal game, then I suspect we'll get drubbed. With VCU's loss to St L this week coupled with our down year in general & with lackluster play last night at GW, I just don't see a close game. To keep the hidden homers happy, I'll say all of us based in reality are with you, and want nothing more than an upset.
