St. Joe's gets revenge for Fairfax 77 - 65.

St. Joe's is a more balanced team this year than La Salle, but their defense is just as suspect. This is going to be a fairly high scoring game that could go either way, but I'm going to guess St. Joes gets this one 79-72.

 

[PoorManProfit]

I’m not sure the Patriots are ready to sweep anyone.

Kenpom, who had our game spreads with Fordham and LaSalle on the nose, has St. Joe's favored by 9.

In fairness I should note that site had us as a 5 pt underdog against Dayton and only a 2 pt favorite against GW (won by 7).

I think St. Joe's takes this one unfortunately. I'm hoping for a 2-2 finish to the conference schedule.

Every game is winnable. Every game is losable. This team can go anywhere from 4-0 to 0-4 to end the season. I'm still holding out hope we can finish with 3 more wins and .500 in conference.

 

[MasonCrew]

It's literally impossible to predict games with this team. Haha so I'll just say we win, and then be either disappointed or happy.

 

[GMUSig03]

No frickin clue. Win by 20, lose by 20, or anywhere in between.

Not optimistic - which probably means win by 20.

Could be a rough one, St Joes enters winners of 3 in a row, and is 9-2 at home. They play 5 out at times and can shoot from deep. Mason always seems to match up well with them for whatever reason.

Feels like another loss unfortunately.

Feels like another loss unfortunately.

That's what I thought but it was just some bad Chinese food so I remain hopeful.

Pretty similar to both Kenpom (9 pts) and rpiforecast (8.5)

I had little beet. I really like this place. Been going a fair amount recently.

See, there's hope!

 

[CHRISTOPHER JAMES JOLLAY]

I like them St. Joseph's boys to cover in this one and will bet accordingly.
