Haslametrics.com Haslametrics has us winning the first game by 8. Last edited by scduke (10/04/2023 6:11 pm) Seems as though this should be one of the years when Haslametrics is an outlier. Really, one has to be pessimistic to believe that a team with that much talent is the 93rd best team in the Country. If anybody wants to take the other side of that bet....

FWIW - Here are the initial Haslam ratings for this season.
61 - Dayton
82 - VCU
93 - Duquesne
95 - St. Bonaventure
98 - Saint Joseph's
108 - Loyola Chicago
109 - Saint Louis
115 - Richmond
123 - George Mason
148 - Fordham
162 - Davidson
188 - UMass
194 - George Washington
221 - Rhode Island
225 - La Salle
Over half the conference is in the Top 125. If all of the A10 teams can get their share of non-conference wins (and get a couple Power 6 wins), the A10 could once again be looking at 2 or 3 bids.

But it has only Dayton in the NCAA from the A-10. No play-in teams or First 8 Out teams. So there is work to do to get multiple bids.
