Yeah, I picked UNCA to finish eighth. They probably would finish eighth if Chuck South didn't lose its top scorer. UNCA sucks. And Liberty did get destroyed down there. I don't care that the final margin was seven points. UNCA was up 26 with 9:30 left.

I picked Liberty to finish third. And last I checked, there are 11 conference games left, so my "biased and ignorant pick" still has time to work itself out.

Winthrop
Coastal
High Point
LU (down from 2nd with 16-18 overall wins in my initial prediction. The bottom four blow or I'd almost go lower with this)
Radford
UNCA
VMI
CSU

Loss in the semis to WU, then the REAL debate begins.

With the way VMI is playing, they could finish as high as 5th.

Sorry, Chris, I didn't know that you were the one who wrote that whole page spread on the BSC teams. I retract my earlier comment and instead will describe your picking the LU men 3rd as "overly optimistic." :)

Sly, I hope you and Chris are both right. We all know that Winthrop would be number 1; if LU is number 3, who do you all see as the number 2 team in the conference--maybe High Point?

The next two games determine if we even have a shot at finishing top 3.

High Point is the second best team in the conference. I'm still not sold on Coastal, though they do have two road wins now. We'll see. All I know is that I wasn't making a prediction for how the standings would look after three games. If LU finishes well below third at the end of the year, I'll gladly eat my crow.

We need to stay out of the 4/5 spot. Realistically, 3rd is still attainable. 4th is most likely.

Hey, if we get a home game I think we're in ok shape.

regardless, the semis and finals will be at WU, so we can get them in the semis or the finals (granted we can win a game or 2)

I am wrong. The championship is at the highest remaining seed. Would that be funny we end up 3rd, go to the semis, knock off High Point, and Coastal beats WU. We would host the championship vs. Coastal. I love to dream.

Does anyone think that LU will get at least 2 road wins--in conference--in 2007?

I think its entirely possible. As we've now said approx 1000 times- we have the talent- they just need to stay/get motivated

I think they can find a couple...Radford and CSU to be exact, but those are their only chances.

TBGBG you don't want to ride a bus to VMI. You know how those mountains are. You need to ride in the SCAR mobile. But I will be coming from Richmond that night. It is wierd how Richmond is 2 hours away from Lexington and Lynchburg but Lynchburg and Lexington are 1 hour apart and in the same direction from Richmond. Strange. I will be there though. Who needs tickets in the VMI section? Those seats are prime...Of course you can still cheer for Liberty :wink: Just not too loudly.
