2025 SoCon Basketball Tournament
UTC can win the regular season tonight with a win at UNCG. If UNCG wins it won’t be decided until Saturday.
Very sparse crowd in Greensboro for the battle for #1.
UTC wraps up first place with a 75-63 win. Samford at UNCG Saturday for second place. Would rather play uncg than Samford if we wind up 6th despite thr fact we beat SU twice and lost to uncg twice. Only a few hundred in attendance in G’boro.
No way. We seem to matchup well vs Samford but UNCG has our number.
Attendance in G’boro was reported as 1,288, probably half that really. I think uncg has it worse than Furman. We have CU close by but they Duke, UNC, NC State and Wake all close by. No wonder they get no support.
Don't want to play Bucky ball early in that tourney. Let Samford tire themselves out.
Problem with Bucky ball is the refs don't call half of all the fouls they commit. If they did, we'd be in the bonus in the first five minutes.tim wrote: ↑Fri Feb 28, 2025 9:46 amDon't want to play Bucky ball early in that tourney. Let Samford tire themselves out.

Interesting that five picked the fourth or fifth place finishers. That was as many as picked the first, second, or third placed teams combined. Nobody picked second place UNCG.
Repeated in some other conferences. Five picked third place Charleston to win the CAA. Three picked second place UNCW and only two chose CAA champ Towson. In the Patriot league there was a first place tie between Bucknell and American U. but seven made Bucknell their favorite and only two picked American. In the WCC St.Marys easily won first place over second place Gonzaga but half of the picks were for SMC and half for Gonzaga.
