After yesterday the standings are:

Richmond 11-2
Temple 10-2
Xavier 10-2
St Louis 9-3
Charlotte 8-4
Rhode Island 8-5
Dayton 7-5


Focusing on the teams that are still in the hunt here are their remaining games. Plus a forecast based on Sagarin and Pomeroy.

Richmond @ 11-2 Gets a week off to rest and then

@ Xavier Loss (should be a heck of a game)
Dayton Win (flyers need this and temple game, so they could be fired up.)
@ Charlotte Loss (ratings say loss, but niners have struggled recently.)

Results 12-4 3rd place by themselves


Temple @ 10-2 Nothing new since last week where they took care of biz.

Dayton Win (flyers need this but can't win on road. X needs Temple loss)
@ La Salle Win
@ SLU Win (will SLU continue to be the dragon slayer?)
GW Win

Results 14-2 Tied for 1st and #1 seed in A10


Xavier @ 10-2 Also took care of business

@ SLU Win (on paper a win. Need to avoid the dragon slayer and get home)
Richmond Win (Protect the home court against a rested Richmond team.)
@ Fordham Win (Trap Game? NO!)
St Bonny Win (Senior Night)

Results 14-2 Tied for 1st and 4 time repeating A10 CHAMPIONS.


OTHERS:
Charlotte and Rhode Island are scheduled to finished tied for 4th. But it could change if Charlotte pulls an upset @ URI on 3/3. Charlotte could then tie Richmond for 3rd. But if they lose at home to Richmond at the end, then we're back to where we are.

SLU is slotted for 6th at 10-6, but an upset or two at home against Xavier and/or temple could really stir things up.

Dayton's biggest factor right now is winning road games at either Temple and/or Richmond. Either or both would help Xavier. The way they play on the road, neither will happen.


Good luck to us as this closes out.

God, it's depressing to know what it's like to be a Dayton fan for just a game. I want them to beat Temple. NEED them to. I want us alone at the top of the A-10 by seasons end... But knowing just how terrible they are on the road, and how the midgit can't coach to save his life...

Damn, how it sucks to like Dayton.

I also feel dirty for typing what I did. I need a shower.
