Dukes will play Fordham on Friday at 7 pm in A-10 quarter-finals

Fordham beat UMass in OT, 73-62.  I''d rather that the Dukes will play Fordham rather than UMASS.  Glad the game went into OT!

No TV in Pittsburgh, A-10 video is subscribers only, & Red Zone broadcast isn't working.

We're up 18-8 after 1.  You can hear Fordham's broadcast here:

Change team to "Atlantic 10" on the A-10 site and it's streaming free.

This game is making me nervous. A loss might mean the WNIT again.

Had 'em all the way.  I was never worried.

26 wins equals the 1954 men's team for the most ever by a Duquesne basketball team.

Fordham just wasn't missing in the 3rd quarter.  Luckily they cooled a bit at the end and the Dukes are moving on.

Unbelievable game.   Fordham just couldn't miss great win.   Go Dukes!!!

Dukes hung tough when Fordham got hot; never panicked, hit their free throws down the stretch. A very good, well coached team that deserved this win. Workman is a MVP workhorse. Go Dukes!  I'm thinking that we now might be playing with house money, if the bid is secured (and from most indications, it is).

I don't want to leave anything to chance.  Win the A-10 tourney and lock it up on your own.  Too many people out there trying to put the A-10 down.

It's been that way for a while with folks downplaying the A10, yet the A10 still has remained a 2-3 bid league for the women.  The Dukes women should be a lock at this point, as there's no bad losses yet to potentially hit them.  Today's win moved the Dukes up to #20 in the RPI all else equal (Edit..probably 21st after Michigan State will be in front after a win over Purdue).  A loss to SLU would leave their RPI at .61214 all else equal, which would be 25th in the country.  With a pair of top 50 wins and 7 top 100 wins, there's not really teams that the committee could put ahead even with a L to SLU.  Compare DU's resume to Auburn, Rutgers, St John's, Indiana, Duke, NC St, Purdue, and USC and I don't think you can make a case for Duquesne to be below those teams - and they would likely have to be below half of those teams.

At worst, the Dukes will be 26-5. No way they would leave us out with a record like that.

I was so impressed seeing those ladies hit their free throws in crunch time, and thinking, Yep if this was the men's team, they would go about 1-5 and end up losing by 5.
