"Golden" Nuggets:

--Delaware is 3-2 in its last 5 games against the spread

--The totals have gone OVER in 5 of Delaware's last 5 games

--The totals have gone OVER in 9 of Delaware's 13 last games at home

Today's O/U is 147.5 in most places.

33-33 at the half. Playing hard and making some shots. We’ll see if the 6 can hold on for an entire game.

Up 63-61 at 7:47. Playing their butts off. Hernandez and Bliss are scoring machines. Will be hard to hold on with 6 and the pace of the game.

This team gives great effort every night. It is a shame that injuries and other issues had such an impact on the season. Mi and the staff have done great work under very difficult circumstances.

Been tracking tiebreakers for the year and if the Blue Hens finish top 10 to end the regular season, it will come down to multiple required outcomes just like on the football bowl-tracking finale. For basketball, this isn't as complicated.

We need a:
1. Delaware win against Louisiana Tech
2. Florida International loss against Western Kentucky
3. New Mexico State loss against Kennesaw State

(via https://x.com/FeathersFGsPod/status/202 ... 06567?s=20)

After UTEP's win against Kennesaw, they do not affect our path anymore (see here: https://x.com/FeathersFGsPod/status/202 ... 56486?s=20). New Mexico State was down to Jacksonville State the entire game, but was fouled on a 3-point attempt with 2.8 seconds in regulation and made all 3 to send the game to OT and eventually won it. Fortunately, an FIU loss to MTSU tonight keeps the Hens fighting for another gameday... if they didn't, the NMSU/UTEP wins would have ended postseason hopes tonight.

The Blue Hens tip off first on Saturday, so that will be where all the focus starts.
