In basketball, I hope the games go on. I enjoy playing you guys. Good luck, it would be odd not ever having your team make it to the big dance.
Agree on basketball. I think we should even consider playing the game annually at the Hampton Coliseum and make it a bigger event for the entire area.
Not happpening however in football unless we choose two FBS OOC (personally wouldn't mind that). No way W&M is going to substitute games with UVA, Tech, Stanford, etc. to play ODU.
And no way we’re playing on a neutral site/Hampton Coliseum. Keep dreaming.
As if Scope wasn't bad enough. I'd much rather schlep up to W&M every other year and let them schlep down here.
Absolutely - their post is trying to say they’re on the same level as us in basketball, and thus merit higher status at a neutral site for the benefit of the community. Which is an absolute joke. However, the poster above is indicating they have higher level options at football (Stanford, UVA, Tech) and wouldn’t dare stoop to change their football schedule to play us. They are not as good as they think they are.
W&M isn't on the same level as ODU in basketball. We're better than ODU in basketball and the CAA is a better basketball conference than CUSA. And, playing VT, WVU, and Standford for our FBS game trumps playing the Monarchs.
I'm sure you'll post an argument to the facts I just presented then turn around and reply to your own post. It's a little creepy that you reply to your own posts but that edit button in the upper right hand corner has confounded many a poster so don't feel badly.

When's your guys' last tourney win again? Unfortunately for the Monarchs it's been a whole eight years since our last tourney win, which I imagine is absolutely unacceptable to a basketball program with as much prestige and prowess as The Tribe's.
And I'm excited to hear your guys are playing VT! What year will they be playing in Williamsburg?

RE: 2017-2018 Basketball Games of Interest
I'm glad to know that ODU fans are astute at history. For those interested in current events, based on a variety of on-line sources ODU's current RPI range is 88-95 vs W&M's of 53-58. After years of lopsidedness, this has developed into an interesting rivalry.

That is pretty interesting. That makes a pretty strong case for the committee to continue moving away from RPI as an indication.

They wont make that first dance. They'll lose in the CAA tournament. It's what they do.

"Recently" is limited by time. W&Ms failure to reach an NCAA tournament is not.

Yeah, 0-9 in conference finals is awful. Especially the one to the eventual national champion. 6-1 vs. the Norfolk Division is sweet however...

64-19 is even sweeter. This run for the Tribe is a blip that will soon be forgotten as everything returns to its' normal state of ODU dominance.

Naw, I screwed up. I was thinking of the loss to WVU in the Southern conference tourney finals when Jerry West was @ WVU. WVU did not win the championship.
I assume this is what you meant, not your schools name from 1930-62.
W&M is 0-9 in conference finals all time.

Don't forget your awful NIT history. Only three births ever and zero wins. Impressive.

So you are 19-64 vs. a team and have never been to the big dance and feel compelled to trash talk? That is an interesting strategy.

Pretty sure we would all be trash talking UVA or Tech if we had beaten them 6 of the last 7 times we played.
