Two down and one to go!

On D we have to play them very tight on the outside. Contest every 3. Let Grace defend the post. Not gonna be easy. They have many weapons but force them to beat us in another way. The press again worked great today in the second half. Might be good to use it earlier.

Gotta dance with the girl that you went with.
 
This one is the slam dunk based on history. A10 has Dayton in only if they win. This scenario plays out with the Spiders winning so we get 2 bids. Been a struggle all year but we made it.

if we lose I still think vcu is next A10 in line if it’s not 1 bid. Let’s not test this theory!!

If we win tomorrow any chance of an 11 seed? We are missing that win after 2 tries.

I think too many bid stealers but will be hard to tell.

who r the bid stealers? I think zero. There have bid earners who were on bubble. Bid stealer is term for someone who wins league tourney who otherwise had no chance, like us. We would be the bid stealer. Maybe VA Tech tho I actually feel they should be in.

the lack of bid stealers is keeping VCU alive.

maybe Texas A&M tomorrow too but they may have played their way in regardless.

St. Peter's of the MAAC. No way Iona gets an at-large.
 
Nope thats not a bid stealer if Iona isn’t in! It’s still 1 bid from the league.
Well, according to your definition here, St. Peter's meets your criteria.

That's St. Peter's. They won their league tourney to earn a berth. They had no chance of earning on an at-large basis.

You said nothing at all about shrinking the at-large spots in the post I replied to.
 
A lot of brackets have Michigan in. I don't see it. I have feeling the committee will punish the Juwan Howard thing. That could get a vcu or Dayton in, if we lose. Again I don’t want to test my theories!

Yeah because I thought that went without saying. Apparently not.

btw so u must think that every single low major 1 bid leagues r bid stealers too.

Sorry that’s not what it means. thought that was obvious but hopefully u get it now.

If that's not what it means, then why did you describe it so?

Professor Ed Dunford always stressed concise writing, because details matter. Apparently you never had him as a professor. Your loss.

Thanks Gramps. Maybe you should re-read some of your posts from Thursday night before bragging about how much you know about college basketball. Talk about embarrassing. This one aged especially well:

I will not miss the day I dont have to watch Grant Golden play for the Spiders.

You mean the guy who had 18 points, nine rebounds and four assists today? Most would say they were happy to watch him.

Proves many on this board are very novice when it comes to watching/knowing/passionate about college basketball. That there is even a discussion here about it is embarrassing.
Absolute naïveté abounds.It’s embarrassing actually and I never post on this board.
I’m a football guy.Now I know why I never post on this board.Yikes.

Agree young whippersnapper about Golden's game but the jurassic jokes by many are getting old (no pun intended).
 
Wow wood hall coming out of the woodwork after 2 of the first meaningful wins in the entire careers of this 6 year class.
Hey I hope it continues for the next 7 games. GG did play a good game but I think he has been helped by Grace taking the load on D. I have never questioned his offensive game. Almost all here who have watched him agree that its his D and lack of rebounding skills that sometimes make him a liability. Grace lessening that burden on D and rebounding have made GG’s ineffectiveness in these areas less noticeable.
And If 48 is now a Gramps what do you call a 60 year old? Petrified.

I already said why bc I thought it was so freaking obviously understood. Did dr dunford also teach not asking questions that have already been answered?

I even referenced us & va tech in the original reply. Acc & A10 that have at large candidates. If your league is a 1 bid league regardless there is no stealing. Then i even replied to you explaining why St. Peter’s was not accurate. Don’t see your issue but have a good night Wood.

Go Spiders!

GK stop trying to explain. Its beyond obvious. Woody will argue that the world is flat just because you say its round.
