Commentary:

It would be nice if Old Dominion beats George Mason at their place today. I am thinking that our “BB Opponent” teams should go at least 7 wins and only 2 losses today.

Davidson's winning games doesn't help us much when they are playing teams that have a RPI of 300.

Helps a lot more than losing to a team with a 300+ RPI

That is for sure! Another loss to a 300+ team and Davidson might have trouble staying in the top 100.

Didn't want to create a new thread since there is a lot of RPI talk on this thread, it seemed a logical place for it.

Tony Mitchell suspended indefinitely for Alabama. Without him, they run the risk of falling flat to end the season and damaging our RPI.

There again he may have caused so much distraction, Bama might get better

In Doub Gottlieb's bubble watch video that accompanied the Alabama story he mentions the Shocks upcoming games with UNI and Creighton.

[Capitol Shock II]

Bubble watch?! Are you serious. We should be in, especially as of right now.
