Re: 1/9 | Davidson | 7:00PM (ESPN+)

If the game is on, I believe we get the win. Against Davidson, on the road, against all odds, Massey and kenpom only giving us a 1/4 chance to win, etc. This is a team on the upswing. No way they don’t come out swinging in North Carolina. Seeing how everyone here likes to beat their chest when they...

Re: 2023-24 bracketology

Losses ranged from:

“Good” loss: NC State

“Absolute Stinkers by one point”: Quinnipiac, Providence

“Something in between”: Maine, St. John’s


With St. John’s, I don’t think the result was too too surprising, it’s just the way in which they lost that was the major problem.
