With 14 of our first 15 games at home, we have to go 11-4 at minimum to stay on serve.

Barring an upset along the way, we will likely enter the bulk of our B1G schedule having only 4 losses, all to teams in the Top 20.

After that, I like our chances in all 8 remaining B1G home games, and I think we get one or two on the road as well.

Tonight gives us one more challenge to gauge our progress. Hope we play well and at least keep it close.

This beginning B1G schedule reminds me of the gauntlet the B1G put football through those 1st 3 years. With the crossover games being the best 3 in the West. This time the top 3 in the conference 4 of the 1st 5 games. That's tough on any team in any league.

I have a fear of a letdown for NJIT or FDU and then next week against Fordham...these 3 games are a test...they will be the toughest games that RU was expected to win...the previous 6 were dregs so even the cupcakes are improving in quality...those are dangerous trap games before SHU

I am liking the fact that the guy NJIT plays the most is a 6' 10'' player. The minutes get a lot more workable when there is 40 minutes for Shaq, Sa, and Duocore. The small lineups makes it hard for us to match up based on our lack of depth.

A 3-game winning streak coming up here will get the media talking and the hype will be through the roof for next weekend .... a 4-game winning streak, well ,... I can't say but it will be one for the books
