Delighted with the team thus far. They have surpassed my preseason expectations. That being said....

I'll pick Fordham until our guys show we can beat them. They win by 6 and disappoint a rowdy Homecoming crowd of 6,800.

Since Mason have yet to defeat Fordham since joining the A10 i dont know how i can predict a win. Lets hope the Fordham curse comes to an end on Saturday.

Please win so I can walk out of the Pat Dome with a smile on my face....

Having watched Fordham three times this year, they are not very good at all. Point guard can only use one hand. Chartuney seems to be playing alone out there. They are extremely thin so foul trouble hinders them worse than most teams.

They have to beat Fordham at some point.

If GMU does beat Fordham, the fans should totally storm the court.

 

[patriot2000]

Fordham has always been horrible when able to beat Mason. Like SLU. Like us, when we were terrible and owned Richmond. Can we actually get three wins in a row for the first time since joining A10??? Everything points to yes, yet I am dreading this!

Unfortunately, we have to play Fordham at home.

But only after the whistle is blown

I keep stopping at your posts... something must be important for me to stop and read them

And I hope we smack Fordham around... I am tired of losing to them

Big one for various reasons.

Its about time Mason beats Fordham
Many people only go to Homecoming games, and its important to win those
I really don't want to have the friends who I am bringing to Homecoming who are coming back for the first time in many years tell me "damn they suck"
A win puts Mason in better shape for the A10 tournament.

Fordham beat vcu. St. Louis beat GMU twice. Anything can happen. If Mason plays the way they did the last couple of games the losing streak against Fordham will be over.

That Sengfelder guy has been a thorn in Mason's side too - wouldn't discount him or Hawkins.

The leaf has been turned. Even with several key players out, we find ways to win. This team has heart, composure, and confidence. Watch out A10.

Is Boyd back for this game? Its the only game of the year i can see in person and was hoping to get the chance to watch him play. I think he has one more game but i'm hoping i'm wrong

One more game. Karmari Newman is back, though.
