Sure, but only 3 have a realistic chance

That's why I said "statistically speaking," :lol:

Coastal Carolina 11-2
Winthrop 9-4
Radford 8-4*
Liberty 7-5
UNC Asheville 7-6
High Point 6-5*
Charleston Southern 6-7
Gardner Webb 4-9
VMI 3-10
Presbyterian 2-11

*Game tonight was postponed. If Radford wins, we stay in 4th and a half game ahead of Asheville. If HPU wins, we move down to 5th and only a half game out of 3rd.

CSU looks to be in a tailspin. VMI almost beat Winthrop today. Coastal's trying to run away with this thing with the way they played the last two games.

G-W shot 65% from the field, 50% from 3 point range, and only beat CSU by 9. That ought to tell you how bad we are.

CSU is slumping, but it was only their second home loss. Their last two wins are against UNCA Thursday and Radford a while back. UNCA has come back down to reality IMO.

Coastal is running away with it, their next two conference games are on the road at HPU and Radford, then they are home for their last three.

We have the same amount of losses as UNCA... a Presby upset of the Bulldogs and an LU sweep of the beach trip, and we're hosting UNCA (or High Point I guess?).

I really just want to see us at home by some minor miracle, or at Radford. Anything else, and 1) I don't get to see it in person and 2) We'll be in trouble in terms of finding a win.

I had a great blog post tonight breaking down all of the scenarios.

Wasted, apparently, because it seems our system is offline. The IT folks are hopefully on this.

I'll update the scenarios one last time after tomorrow night's games. Liberty can't win a tiebreaker with High Point without beating Coastal, FWIW.

I think maybe we've swept the beach trip twice in all the years we've been in the conference, and this year will be harder than most with CCU being good and CSU being so tough at home. This is one time we'd love to help you guys out though!

So you're saying there's a chance! :lol:

I might try to make it to the Libery/CSU game on Saturday. That could be a good game.

Good luck!

If you know the right way, no more than 5-5.5 hours.

Super, is the "right way" the back roads of North & South Carolina, where you can hear dueling banjos if you roll your window down? :shock:

29 South
Business 85 South
220 South
I-74 East
38 South (2nd Hamlet Exit)
501 South

That puts you right onto campus.

I-73 is open on parts of 220 now so you don't have to go through the towns of Elerbe and that stuff before you get to Rockingham but I haven't taken that yet so I don't know how much time that saves. I'm guessing at least 30 minutes.
