New posted total: 11-1

When I say upset- I am speaking soley in terms of standings. Hoever, if I were to throw out the ranking and conduct a "BCS like" formula- I would have to admit I would consider the Beavers beating Defiance an upset as well. Bluffton does have a nice club, but it is clear that Defiance has more "talent" 1-8 than anyone in the league. However "talent" does not always covert to wins.

Anderson fan.. Glad to see you join in picking the winners. I will wait to post mine...

Sorry Darryl....not sure which way I am going this week.... but if I had to pick 1 upset for Saturday.... Bluffton would on my upset special watch list. We'll see though...I need to sleep on this one!

Picks for tonight: Posted Record: 7-1
Defiance 71 Bluffton 63
Hanover 51 Franklin 64
Transylvania 72 Mt. St. Joe 60
Anderson 81 Manchester71.

Don't see any major upsets tonight...If I had to pick one...Bluffton has the best chance...

Good Luck!

Posted total 7-1!

4 teams tied for 1st! I wouldn't have it any other way.

Defiance rebounded nicely with a big win over Franklin. Mt. St. Joe with a big win over Bluffton. Transylvania defeated #22 Anderson. Kudos to Joey Verax of Transy who will no doubt be the HCAC player of the week.. 10-10 on Wednesday and posted 39 yesterday in 2 big wins for Transy. Manchester beating Rose was a bit of a surprise...It's evident why the HCAC struggles to get national recognition-they all beat each other up all year. Any thoughts on who is the best right now?

Picks for Saturday!

Bluffton 54 Mt. St. Joe 62
Rose Hulman 62 Manchester 50
Franklin 68 Defiance 78
Anderson 57 Transylvania 64

Knowing the history of the HCAC- I went with a couple of upsets this week. As a fan...I hope I am wrong..As a realist...I know history....

Anyone else intersted in joining in picks, please feel free to post. It will give us all the more reason to visit d3 hoops and get some activity going on this board-afterall, it can only help the league!
Best of luck to the HCAC!

Looks like 4-0 last night on picks!

The Defiance score was a little closer than predicted as well as Bluffton taking Anderson to OT. Transy beat Franklin to cause a log jam in the rankings from 1-5. Any thoughts on what happened to Franklin last night?
Lots of changes coming on Saturday as Franklin travels to Defiance and Anderson travels to Transy-

Picks for this week!!

Defiance 92 Mt. St Joe 72
Rose Hulman 64 Hanover 60
Anderson 76 Bluffton58
Franklin 62 Transylvania 68

OK-didn't mean to cause this much of a stir. I guess it is all relative- its obvious my definition of "front runner" is not the same as yours. When I think of front runner- I think tournament winners....not 7-5 with 1 trip to the "dance." I would have to think that past HCAC champs wouldn't include Defiance as one of the "front runners" in the past decade-certainly a "contender" as of late in my opinion. Grizz backer-I agree to disagree pal!
