Hard to figure these rankings sometimes. We beat a 12-3 team and drop 2 spots while ETSU beats an 8-10 team and jumps up 6 spots. It's not who you beat but by how many you win by. In othere words if you want to jump in the rankings beat a not so good team bad.
We played SOFT

Besides our Friday game there are a couple of very interesting games Saturday night. ETSU visits WCU and UTC Visits UNCG.
We have matched our record through 19 games of a season ago at 15-4

That game should draw one of the largest home crowds in FU basketball history
Anyone know the top 5 largest crowds?

Will be interesting to see what the Vegas line will be for tomorrow nights game, guessing Paladins will be favored by 2-4 point range

KenPom forecasts a 3 pt FU win 72-69, and the Vegas lines are usually right on top of the KenPom #s.....
We had a game or two back in the late 60's and 70's with sellouts at Memorial Auditorium listed at slightly over 6,000 when we played Clemson or South Carolina. Some other sellouts in the Auditorium, too. The DePaul game in 1982? was another. The attendance max varied depending on how the seating was set up and what the fire marshall allowed.DungeonRealm wrote: ↑Thu Jan 16, 2020 3:29 pmSingle game tickets for Paladins home date with Wofford in downtown Greenville on Sat.

I think the attendance was over 10,000 for the semi-finals of the SoCon tourney in 2000 when we played App. State in our game and CofC played Wofford in the other game. I don't know that we can count that since there were 2 games.
The attendance was around 14,000 in the first college game played in the "Well" or" BiLo Center" (as it was then) when we played Clemson. Technically, that might have listed a Clemson home game.
Very interesting matchups, indeed. I think UNCG's athleticism at guard and shot blocking in the middle will be a challenge for Chattanooga.Besides our Friday game there are a couple of very interesting games Saturday night. ETSU visits WCU and UTC Visits UNCG.
