Polls/Bracketology

Post by InnervisionsUMASS » Mon Nov 11, 2013 2:27 pm

Well, today we received our first vote in a poll in quite a few years... I believe TF's last year was the last time.

I figure we can put any poll info here as well as bracketology as we get closer to the end of the season.

Beating LSU and YSU would at the very least put us on the brink of the top 25 going into Charleston!!!

I wouldn't be surprised if it was Shaka Smart, he's had high praise for us for a little while now.

My guess is that it was Shaka. He's been talking about us a lot when he gets interviewed about the A-10.

LSU also has a few votes in the coaches poll too.

I think a win today will get some votes on the board in both polls (assuming they also take care of Youngstown of course).

It's incredible that our schedule is devoid of the Holy Crosses and CCSUs and Hartfords of the world. And that isn't a complaint.

I agree but we need to take care of Youngstown State first,
