Atlantic 10 Predictions

By: Matthew Colvin

With Atlantic 10 play hurtling toward the end of the season, it’s time to discuss where each team will land for the Conference Tournament in Pittsburgh. Here are my predicted finishes and paths for each team.

1. Saint Louis

The Billikens have dominated A-10 play and would be undefeated overall if not for a miracle three-pointer in their November loss to Stanford. They still face VCU and a road game at George Mason, but I see them cruising to the No. 1 seed with at worst a 17-1 conference record.

2. VCU

The Rams are playing their best basketball lately, winners of their last seven games. Their offense has been elite in conference play, and I expect them to beat George Mason later this year to leapfrog into the No. 2 spot.
