A look ahead at the most important remaining Atlantic 10 non-conference games

It’s crazy to think non-conference play is starting to wind down, but once the holidays pass us by, we’ll be watching conference games. The Atlantic 10 has done a great job taking advantage of significant non-conference opportunities against opponents worth beating: LSU, Saint Mary’s, and Wisconsin are just a few of the teams to fall …

Atlantic 10 Player of the Year Race: Who’s in the lead, and who’s in the hunt?

There have certainly been surprise candidates playing well this year, but there have also been rock-solid players that haven’t faltered from the preseason A-10 POY race. We often get lost in what teams are playing well in the non-conference, so it’s important to step back and remember what players are exceeding expectations as well. We’re a long way from …

Atlantic 10 Bracketology: 12/3/19

Way-Too-Early Atlantic 10 Bracketology: 11/24/19

It may only be November, but it’s always on our minds: the NCAA Tournament, March Madness, the Big Dance… whatever you call it. The reason it’s always on our minds in November is that a conference like the A-10 can’t do a lot to get more teams in the tourney once conference play rolls around …

One good, one bad stat for all 14 Atlantic 10 teams

Davidson Good: Davidson is 80.6% from the free throw line as a team. That’s good enough for 19th in the nation. The Wildcats were 20/23 from the charity stripe in their opening loss to Auburn and kept it close for most of the game even with Kellan Grady and Jon Axel Gudmundsson struggling. Bad: Davidson is …

Nothing like November

You’ll be hard-pressed to find a college basketball fan who’ll tell you March isn’t the best month of the season. I don’t disagree; seasons are made, and most importantly, completed, in March. But when you’re like me and you cover an entire conference and root on 14 teams night-in and night-out, it feels like the …
