I hope I'm wrong, but they better win tonight or 10-8 is what they will finish. I want to be wrong on this one, it's what I predicted.

Can't have faith they will go on road and beat both NE and SB. They could, but that would not be smart money.

And 8th place is possible.
Little frustrating!!!!!!! :shock: :shock:

The team can definitely grind out some wins but they are not good enough to compete for the CAA title from what I've seen this year. They are a middle of the pack team in a middle of the pack mid major.

I fully expect Drexel to win tonight by double digits.

The Blue Hens just aren't good enough. They don't have a capable big, no depth, and their guards are league average at best. Davis is a good player but he's not a guy who can carry the team on his back. In order to win they need Davis and Drumgoole to be on and get some real contributions from Trent, Ray, and Reilly.

Prove me wrong, Blue Hens!

Up 18-8 at 12 min TO. Hens getting to the rim. A very intense game and the refs are letting them play.

As has happened many times this year, an offensive lull to end the half. Drexel up 6.

9th is a possible avenue with a loss tonight. Unlikely, but possible. Broke down what best, worst, and middle cases could be with a win or loss tonight. Hoping I get to post the winning case scenario on my account after this one... we'll see.

Not looking good.
Tubby: 3 national titles, one won on the field, all D2
Keeler: 3 national titles, all won on the field, one as a player, two as a coach, 1 D2, 2 FCS
Carty: 2 on-field national titles, one as a player, one as an OC, both FCS

Carty - get an FBS bowl win!

Our shooting is abysmal and Davis is not having a good game again

Down 64-58 at 3:34 in a wild, very physical game. Just can’t make enough shots, as is pretty typical.
