Game thread - @URI 2PM SAT Feb. 7th. ESPN+

[*23*]

Kenpom has this as a 74-68 loss. I think prior to our most recent slide this was a 1 to 2 point margin by KP.

I feel like - for this season anyway - this is the team and Mooney's last stand. Either bounce back in a big way and play with fire. Or it goes the other way.

Prediction:
Spiders 78 URI 69

Archie is just terrible since at URI. Not convinced of this outcome for the Spiders. If it goes the other way buy some puts on the rest of the season. It might get ugly.

The 23 special: predict an unlikely win, and then slam Mooney when it doesn't come to fruition.

You can't possibly be predicting a 9-point road win against anyone with a straight face given what we've seen the last 5 games.

Rhody 77, Spiders 59

Now now Kneepad, I wouldn't do that.

I actually give my scenario a one in 5 chance in happening. And dont forget, Archie has been awful at Rhody. I am not being facetious when I say Mooney may be a better in game coach.

But this one will come down to pride and whether the players are going to suck it up and show some. And if Mooneys message following the last game is heard.

this game could go two ways. Richmond can play really well with a sense of urgency. Or continue to play into the other teams playbook.

I’d be very surprised if we pull this game out.

It might get ugly.

"might get" implies that it isnt already...

"might get" implies that it isnt already...

Might get "uglier" maybe should have said?

Maybe fugly…
