#1 Tennessee plays at South Carolina shortly on the SEC Network.
This game is of no significance to us, but the transitive
victories get pretty interesting should SC pull off the victory.

Rutgers nabbed its third straight win tonight, beating Indiana
at the RAC. It's the first time Rutgers has won three straight
conference games since 2004. 4-6 is nothing to write home about,
but at least there's some reason for optimism there. A sophomore
led them in scoring, and two freshmen joined him in the starting
lineup. They lose just one player after this year, and he's
replaced on the roster by one of their biggest recruits ever.

If they can win a few more games and can get into the top half
of big ten standing, I imagine they will be in the at-large bid
conversation. That will be huge for the program.

They'd need a great showing in the conference tournament and the
Big Ten is stacked this year, so it'll be a challenge, but you
can't write them off. Grea to see Pikell do well.

Perhaps NIT is a more realistic goal for them. I can't remember
seeing them in any tournament last 10/15 years.

Hartford with a 3 point lead over Vermont at home roughly half
way through the second half. There have been times during this
game where Hartford just can't miss.

I have to believe us against Vermont is more mental than
anything. If Hartford can pull it off so can we.

Duncan, Duncan, and Duncan plus Lamb is just insane when they're
all on the court together. We've got depth, but for the AE,
that's just another level of insane. If everyone hits their
shots like the Binghamton game I think we've got a shot, but
yeah it'll always be tough playing UVM.

IMO, UVM is the best coached team in the league. They are
disciplined, play a real team game, hit their free throws, and
play tough D. They are the class of the league; we will need to
play our best to beat them - they certainly aren't infallible.
Lamb had an off-game tonight, and he still had 25 and 6, and was
nearly perfect on the line. He is definitely the league's POY,
and he is a one-man wrecking crew.
Hartford is a dangerous team; their one major problem is their
coach, IMO. Not very strong. Anyone who saw Hartford's last
possession with 21 seconds left tonight would agree. But don't
be surprised if they bump someone off in the Tournament this
year.

Vermont struggles to come away from Binghamton with only a six
point win. It was a five point game with under a minute left in
the game. Between their loss to UMBC on Thursday, and their
struggle against Bing today, are there weaknesses in Vermont's
game that are starting to come to light? We should study the
hell out of those last two games to see what was working against
them. They're no longer as invincible in the AE as they once
were.
