13 Down and 5 TO GO

2 at home (AWP and LC)
3 vs. teams we have already lost to (CU, AWP, and LUM)
2 vs. teams we look to sweep (AU and LC)
It gets dicey now that we enter the home stretch aiming to: (1) stay out of poll positions 7 thru 10 and (2) hopefully climb the ranks to garner a home playoff game on Thursday, March 1. Of course, the latter would probably require a near sweep – if not a full sweep – of games yet to be played but also a fair degree of help from others. With the present 4th place team, Navy, sitting just a game ahead of us at 7 and 7, it’s certainly not out of the question. For those who enjoy such excitement, you may wish to root for home-standing AWP to take down Navy on Saturday and for Lafayette to send visiting LUM packing on Sunday. After watching us put down Bucky in OT on Monday night with a revitalized and energetic Zone D which held the Bison to < .40% FG% and < 30% from “deep,” and a League-leading scoring offense that continued to click, there’s no doubt in my mind that we’ve got talent at present to move up the charts and secure a spot at home in the Playoffs. The climb continues tomorrow.
