There is not an Atlantic 10 team I dislike more than Massachusetts-Amherst Try living in the shadow of such arrogance...UMass still has a banner in Mullins for their vacated Final Four appearance. Gone [Thankfully] is TJ Weeks who torched us at home with the 3Ball...playing at Rider [grad student] now with his younger brother. We must limit touches for Rahsool Diggins and box out Cross & Cohen [UMass' rebounding machines]. While they're at the conference bottom in 3PT % they went off in 2nd half against GMU at a 45% clip. Diggins can heat up in a hurry and Cross not afraid to step back from the lane to hoist a shot as well. Go Bonnies!!! Cohen played in the RC just last year with St. Francis. 9-11 from the field too, he can really play. I am a bit worried about the Cross & Cohen combo

Might it not be a good option to put our defensive gem Barry Evans on Cohen, and let Venning and Brown mark the other big man? Looking forward to this match up. Go Bona's beat the Minutemen

FWIW-it is showing on my USA Network App that the game is being shown. If you have cable(Fios) and the app, it should be free.

BONNIES open as 4.5 favorites. I would bet that they will shoot well at home. They shot bad at Dayton so I'm assuming they shoot lights out at home but you never know with this team.

Surprised at us favored by 4.5.
They lost to Dayton by only 4 in front of their 13K+ fans and at Loyola by 1.
In the A10 they are #1 PPG at 80.6, #1 Rebound Margin +4.7, #1 Off Boards, #1 TO Margin and #1 STEALs.
Making and defending TREYS is not their strength. But any team can get hot from deep on a given night.
Their board play and TO Margin created 5.4 more shots a game in conference play.
I expect a tough physical game with foul trouble playing a role with our bigs. COHEN hasn't fouled out in 20 games.
They have taken 155 more FTs than us this season but hit 69% compared to our 78%.
No doubt the students will help to defend our house.

Got to have it. This game really shouldn't be 4.5 pts close. If the Bonnies have any hope for top 4, this one is a must. Let's run off 9 to close out regular season.
Go Bonas!

Agree, can't even dream of Top 4 without TWO wins this week. If we can't beat these teams at home how do we expected to get to semifinals on neutral court in Brooklyn? If we lose, it places us squarely and deservedly as, say, a 7 or 8 or 9 seed.

17-4 run, mainly after Banks, Barry, Brown in....and Cohen out for much of it...
