The Undefeated and the Winless

[diehardfan]

lol...  that's what I get for making random quick posts at work 

true, and true, and thank you (x2) 

[John Gleich]

North Central leading 66-58 against Illinois Wesleyan with under 3 minutes to go

[Mr. Ypsi]

IWU falls to still undefeated NCC.

Only Hope and WPI left in the pool.  One less in the overall undefeated tallies.

[hopefan]

Most perfect teams stayed perfect tho some of our losers came close to winning and some of our winners (ie Calvin over TriState in ot) came close to losing.   But when the dust settled, only IWU came off the undefeated group, and Wartburg came off the undefeated vs d3 group, getting nipped by Loras.

New counts after last night:
Undefeated   8
Undefeated vs D3 only   4
Winless  12
Winless vs D3 only   10

[hopefan]

nice job hoops fan  -  your list is more complete than mine  - I somehow omitted Willamette along the way, and had not included provisionals and UMAC teams in my data base.

[smedindy]

I bet Presentation will fall off one of the lists on January 6th!

[Greek Tragedy]

Of all those undefeated teams, only HOPE and WPI remain in our survivor pool!  I HOPE WPI WINS! 

[Ryan Scott (Hoops Fan)]

It's still a bit full, but its a good list heading into the bulk of conference play.  We'll see how small they get by the end of the year.  All the lists were down pretty small by the end of last season.

[Flying Dutch Fan]

OS - You go ahead and Hope that WPI wins - I'm going to rely on the play of Hope to win   

[iwumichigander]

Comparing the Hope & WPI schedules over the next four games, the schedule favors WPI.

[Ryan Scott (Hoops Fan)]

I'm not sure any of the unbeatens have a more favorable schedule than WPI over the next 15 games.

[hopefan]

actually Babson on the road for WPI tonite could be a test...

[Ryan Scott (Hoops Fan)]

If it is, you were all dumb to pick WPI.  Babson is playing ok this year, but they shouldn't scare a true top ten team one bit.

[hugenerd]

Looks like the WPI-Babson game was a close one. 57-52 final in favor of the still undefeated engineers.
