Actually, you could look at it like we have a 100% chance of winning on Sunday. The only team on the list above where we won the third time after losing the first two is ....Towson. Who are we playing on Sunday? Towson!

As the famous orator Han Solo once said, "Never tell me the odds."

But, if we are talking odds, what were the odds we would win 18 games before the season began? Or win the ODU game, or the Hofstra game in December, or the JMU game in January, or the game this past Saturday after Riller's heave. Towson should not even take us seriously. After all, past performance always guarantees future results, right?

The Tribe clearly has no chance. Therefore, think how delirious we will be if they win this weekend.

Northeastern only loses Begley for next season.

They've really had the luxury of pacing starter minutes in their quarterfinal. Does not bode well.

Yeah, and we have struggled to force Northeastern to play at a faster tempo in both games against them. We need Hofstra/UNCW to beat them.

Just hope for a triple OT game between them and Hofstra tomorrow night

....and down goes Hofstra. Talley tied Marcus' record with 37 pts.

That is going to be one LONG train ride home for Mihalich, JWF, and one Eli Pemberton

The CAA version of Grayson Allen is finally gone. Goodbye Gustys!

Pemberton can stay and watch his original commitment play in the semis

Who is that last name you dare speak of who had an awful game? Don't imagine not being able to get out of LI by plane or bus and having to drag through that 16 hour train ride down helped much.

Hofstra losing is really good for Northeastern and really bad for W&M.

Don't forget, UNCW took them to OT twice. Lost in the end, but we are going in confident we can compete. Plus, UNCW WILL have a decent crowd there, while NU will have practically nobody. We perform better with some crowd support.

Didot know he originally committed to WM. That’s classic. What made him decommit to another CAA school?

The rumor that went around was proximity to his girlfriend, but I really don't know.

I agree that UNCW will be a much tougher game for NE than Hofstra and we would prefer to play NE over UNCW if we make it to the finals. I am hoping for a repeat of the Big East tourney classic between UConn and Syracuse on 3/12/2009 and a 6 overtime game, it was awesome BB to watch and will get both teams properly exercised for the final.

Why would you prefer to play NU, just curious? They seem to play better defense than us. Y’all beat us handily twice.

Yeah what? Northeastern is the one team I want to avoid the most.

Not thinking about Tuesday at all, just want to win today.

One game at a time. I will be happy for the Tribe to play who ever happens to be next on the schedule. Not ready to go home yet.

Go Tribe!

Win today and then take on who ever is left.

Go Tribe!
