You're cherry picking again Stever. Dayton was only a 3 point favorite in their loss to Hofstra. Saint Louis on the other hand was a 13 point underdog to Virginia Tech of the ACC and won. While a sweep would have been nice for the A10, I don't think they feel they had a bad night winning 3 of the 4 games tonight including one over a good ACC team.
it's a good win for SLU- but still- the loses are mounting for the A10. It's 10 now for the A10. None of the top 7 conferences have more than 6 losses. Nor do the MWC or MVC. All 9 of those conferences have winning percentages over .800. The A10 is sitting at .655. Tomorrow the A10 will be underdogs in 3 games big time. VCU/Virginia, Fordham/Florida St, SLU/Providence most likely. Dayton is a pick 'em vs Ohio. They could easily be 20-13 after tomorrow.
Dayton nearly lost to Ball State too, if it weren't for a last-second layup.

Will be interesting how Anthony Grant turns out.
Travis Ford already paying dividends for the Billikens. Much improved over last year.

make it Tulane 37-14 at halftime. Has Dunleavy made that much of a difference?
If Tulane is anything near good, the AAC is going to be a very tough conference with Wichita, Cincy, SMU, Temple, UConn. Not to mention Houston and UCF.

The AAC has steadily upped its game on the hardwood in the conference's short existence (well, everyone except East Carolina who has remained terrible and UConn and Memphis who have declined).

it feels like this year is a pretty big jump up. I mean last year after this day, the AAC was only 17-12. AAC is already 23-4 and is winning in 2 games here this afternoon. So 8 games better. And if that trend can continue, that's going to mean when you get into conference play, the conference games will just spread around that RPI.

It's like when a kicker is lining up for a FG attempt and the TV broadcasters mention that this kicker has been good on his last 11 FG attempts...

It's amazing the amount of times the kicker misses after something like that is mentioned.

It’s a P7 this year.

Adding Wichita St looks like it's a great move by the AAC.
