We need Hartford to get into the W column much earlier than they did last season. Hopefully the can pull it out today, but should be another close game.

why?

There really are no more OOC games that the AE realistically is going to pick up conf RPI points, and once AE conf play begins then the elevator will be going down fast.

Just go ahead and book your travel to Dayton and enjoy the rest of the season, as now that your AD voted BU off the island, the only thing you need to do is to root for them to win every game they play accept when they play you guys, because that will help you obtain the #1 seed.

If I'm a UVM fan, I'm rooting for BU to win every game but 2. It's not rocket science!

UVM Hoop Cat

This is one of the most wrong things I've ever read on this board- and that is saying a lot.

You clearly have no concept of how RPI works.

And the stuff about BU....makes zero sense. Serious question: Who let you out and gave you access to a keyboard?

Learn to think outside the box, hoop fan. Think about it. If BU wins every game beside the 2 against you then that means the rest of the team's in the league would have 2 losses, which is a 2 game swing per team.

It also would give you guys the tiebreaker against everyone if it came down to that. Are you following me yet?

In short, if BU goes 16-2, with those 2 losses coming to you guys then that's 2 games that will be hard to make up for SBU or Albany for instance, who are really your competition for the America Least #1 seed.

I'm going to have to nominate you for the "C'mon Man! " segment

Yeah, BU would get the AQ into the NIT, but that's like kissing your sister. You have bigger fish to fry, because you're focused on Dayton.

UVM Hoop Cat

Ridiculous. All of it. Observation-You also seem to know about sister- kissing. Just saying.

...and here I thought all along that UVM was considered a high
academic institution. Obviously that isn't the case based on your lack of understanding on this very basic premise.

ccd494

Stop responding to him, hoop cat. He's a troll, he hates UMaine and anything associated with it, and belittles anything he doesn't see as suitably big time as being without value.

Nostrajimus

I absolutely love UMO. Heck, not sure if you remember, but I was the one who came out first and stated that Mr. March needed an extension ASAP!, remember ccd494?

BTW, the reason hoop cat hasn't responded is because he looks like a fool for not understanding this basic premise I presented.

I was looking for the tail between the legs emoticon, but can't find it. Maybe Hoop Cat knows where it is?

lsbal84

Tell me about it.....I know the team is basically comprised of fresh & soph but I can't go through another start like last year. One difference this year is they have been winning these games so far and lost them at the end. Last year they were just getting blown out. Not sure Sikma will be there tonight as his grandfather unfortunately passed away this week.

Nwakamma and Moore are the real deal so far. The frosh PG Cooper should have a great career here. He looks very impressive. We need to close out a game here and get into the win column.

UVM Hoop Cat

No, I understand it fine- I just think it's a stupid/pointless scenario to be discussing.

The #1 seed doesn't really matter to me and doesn't guarantee anything, regardless- we haven't been the #1 seed our last two trips to the Dance.

I can't find a working feed to the Army/Bingo game. Anyone have one?

Catcountry21

I'm using the live stats link.....nvm that doesn't work either.

Oh well, it's over now. Army wins easily. Tough year for Bing, I'm afraid.
