I saw that and was wondering the same thing...it must have something to do with the algorithm they use...VCU and URI seem to be the only remaining opponents with a chance to be in the top 25.

Lunardi's latest...still an 11...rematch with SMC...unrealistic first round pairing, I think the committee tries to avoid first round rematches.

Why not Vandy? Unlikely I know, but they are at 55 now and have played well as of late. Schedule will likely be top 10 by year's end.

They would need to finish 21-10 (were 6-6 noncon) to have top 25 RPI.. not likely. RPIForecast has them for expected RPI of 70 but I do think they will over perform that mark and have a chance at top 50

Forget that. It will take a near-miracle for this team to dance.

Hate to agree, but have to agree. No Top 25 wins + little chance of getting any = Must win A-10 Tourney to Dance. That's the winning formula as I see it (especially after tonight's debacle).

There are always bumps in the road...they are still on track for a bid.
Near-miracle is an overreaction.

I still think it's too early to say they can't make it but it's looking more and more like the A10 could be a one bid league this year so winning the A10 tourney may be the only way to get in.

It is like clockwork. It is pretty annoying after the past 3 years of success. What a bunch of crybabies.
