JMU leads 50-47.

One of their fans is claiming it is 47-46.

Probably better source than some random JMU fan / pizza delivery boy.

Bill actually has talked about this topic, I remember he brought it up during the game last year.

Essentially it depends on who you ask. Jmu has one record book, Mason has another. No clue why the discrepancies but it’s quite odd.

Their record book has 2 pages missing because a chicken got to it.....

Perhaps one includes games played before we moved up to Division 1 while the other only recognizes against Division 1 opponents?

I like JMU's count better. Win on Friday and we are tied.

Sagarin: Mason by 5.5
Kenpom: Mason by 6.

Vegasinsider opens with Mason favored by 6.5

 

[CHRISTOPHER JAMES JOLLAY]

Somebody get me JMU plus 6.5 please....

Saw a conversation between Bill Rohland, John Vaughn and Folarin Campbell on Twitter this morning. Campbell is in town and might come to the game tonight.

If I'm working on our coaching staff I would do everything I could to see if he'd be willing to come in and talk to the team for a few minutes. What better way to light a fire under their asses than hearing from a Mason great who went to the Final 4?

Vegasinsider line drops to 5.5. Must be due to Jollay's bet!

Worrisome stats from Kenpom:

Madison is 37th in steal % on defense (although somewhat paradoxically, 169th in defensive turnover %). Also they are 75th in offensive rebounding %, something that we seem to have trouble defending recently.
