No. Hopkins won, 69-68.  Gametracker messed up and then was corrected.

The F and M season has come to an end. I have watched all season long, emphasis on long. I really feel for the kids on that team. My question is, when kids enter the year/program are they better athletes by the end of the season?? I'm not sure if this is truly the case. Are kids being developed throughout the season individually, are they sure of their respective roles, and does this then translate into better team play and chemistry. I think F and M needs to take a long look at their program. This team had more talent and potential in November, whether they were young or not doesn't really matter.

thanks sonny and I will change my message.

no point spread stuff, just straight up basketball.. Hope to have a lot more people joining in with us.
Watch for preseason warmup picks just to get thing going..

I have had a blast doing this and will keep posting during the off season.. Watch for the playoff pick-em's.
Thanks to everyone!!! ;)

Reserved Seat

Old Ends, thanks for your work in keeping track of our 'educated' picks.  My crystal ball worked well, except for the blinders on my F&M picks.  Eight of my sixteen wrong picks were on F&M.
However, no one can question my loyalty.
Looking forward to next year.
I hope Ursinus can make a good showing for the Centennial Conference in the NCAAs.  I hope their close games at the end are not an omen for a quick exit.

Only 1 pick-em for 2/27/08--

This is the second season of pick-em's. If you want I will run it for us till the Final NCAA game for DIV III.
I will know from the responses.

Dickinson  @  McDaniel


My Pick would be McDaniel

So what exactly happened to F&M?  I can really only follow the records, but they looked like they were doing well at the midpoint of the season, and things just fell apart.  Why?

The positive is that they were 4 games better than last season, but the negative is that in the end, they were under .500 and got spanked in the CC.  I know the team is young, but what does the future hold?  At the beginning of the season, the talk on these boards was that the young team was built around some incredible recruits.  Is that still the belief?  Did these players disappoint, or do they just need another year to develop? 

I expect a lot more from F&M.

2/27 Pick'em

I am going for a mild upset and pick Dickinson. I am sure that they are feeling pretty good at the moment with some momentum after spanking F&M.

crambam, it's hard to say what the future holds.  The last-second loss at Gettysburg sent the Dips into a spiral from which they never recovered.  In some games, the offensive philosophy seemed to be "feed it to McNally and stand around and see what happens."  There was no guard production—zero points—from the starting backcourt in the most important game of the season on Saturday.  The level of guard play is really far removed from what Ursinus has now, and not close to what the Dips have historically had over the years.

Maybe Reserved Seat or someone else can add more on what happened to the Dips, because that was quite a collapse.  As for me, I'm excited about the possibility of two CC teams going dancing next week.
