A Sea Of Red

With these last 2 wins we have set ourselves up nicely for the crunch run through the conference. 5 of our next 6 games are at home. If we can somehow go 5-1 over these 6 we would be in a terrific position to make a run at 1st place over our final 4 conference games. If we go 5-1 we would be 10-4 in conference. A lot of “ifs” but that’s what makes being a fan so much fun (and cause heartburn).

Next 6 games:
vs. Radford (6-1)
vs. HPU (1-7)
vs. UNCA (4-4)
@ G-W (4-3)
vs. WU (4-4)
vs. PC (4-3)

Radford and G-W are really the only ones I'm concerned about. Radford just because they're 6-1 in the League, and GW b/c its on the road.

We will win all our home games this year. The players love playing at home and the energy should be better then it has ever been here. And being that we only have one away game in that stretch - we should be able to carry that enthusiasm with the students to show up. GW is going to be a tough win though - IMO.

We have protected home court very well. However, I could see us losing anyone of these games, save the High Point game. The BS is so wide open and any team can win any game.

However, if RU loses to VMI this week and we're able to beat them on our home floor, it could be a big opening to make a push towards a top seed in the tournament.
