A10 Thur 2/27
2 games tonite...VCU @ Fordham and Duq @ StL. StL leads the league with no losses so far. VCU is hanging in the 4th spot, with 4 losses, ..... tied with UMass and only 1 game ahead of GW and Richmond. A top 4 spot is critical for the A10 this year come tournament time. The top 4 will receive a 1st round bye.
VCU has lost 3 of their last 4. All 4 games were against teams at the top of the league. 1 of those losses was to StL. Just so happens they play each other again on Saturday at VCU. Should be a great game. You going, Ballin!?! Don't want to write too much about that one yet, but I think it'll be a big play for me. I see ..... Revenge!
Certainly should be a look ahead for both these teams. With VCU, ... can't see it. They simply can't afford to. Fordham just doesn't have the backcourt to handle the pressure. If you haven't seen Weber play one-on-one defense, you need to. The kid looks like a Spider Monkey with 8 arms. He should have 3 or 4 steals tonite. These 2 played a month ago. VCU was up 17 at the half. Coasted the rest of the way, to win by 16. That's kinda the way I'm seeing this one tonite. So I'm playing the 1h only.
As far as the StL game, they beat Duq earlier in Pittsburgh by only 4. Tonite, they're at home. They seem to be playing to the competition's level this year. They're too solid of a team to do that. They've won a lot of close games to inferior teams so far. But they could turn the switch and crush these guys as well. Duq has lost 5 out of their last 6. If I were to play it, I'd take the points. No play on this game for me.
VCU 1h -6
GL Den
CBB
12-21
