I would love to beat Butler with a buzzer-beater. We owe those bums.

Youve got to be kidding me

I didn't notice VCU projected to make the Tournament. I also didn't see them listed among the teams that made it last year but weren't projected to make it this year under their "departures" list.

That would be an epic twist of fate if we got put against each other again. Ugh, I just felt that all over again.

We were VCU’s signature win this year?

ANYONE but Butler!!

Butler would be a good matchup for us. They don't have a ton outside of Baldwin and Martin. Caver could play well vs Baldwin. Martin is a matchup nightmare, but I think Haynes might be the best guy to go against him.

Just get to the dang tournament. I'll worry about the matchups after we cut down the nets in TX.

ODU is projected to finish the 2017-18 season with a 25-5 final record. This according to RealTime RPI.

The projection has us winning our games at home against Marshall, WKU & MTSU. However it predicts that we will lose at Marshall and WKU.

Why is MTSU not predicted to make it?

Vcu won't get in this year unless they win the tournament

I believe departures is based on Chris's preseason prediction, not last year's field.

This, their best win is ODU by a good margin and we are now out of the Top - 100 after Rice.

This conference would be tough to get 25 wins with the travel.

Thanks. That would explain them being absent from the departures list.

College Basketball is a simple game. You give ten guys a basketball, let them dribble it around for 40 minutes and in the end, Butler always wins against ODU.

This could be a nice redemption story if ODU beats Middling Tennessee in the CUSA final and follows that with a first-round NCAA win against Butler. Any other bugbears in ODU's modern history?
