Undefeated or Get it Over With?

Would you prefer that the lady's lose a game before the MAC tournament or do you want them to run the table and push the win streak to 27 games?
Obviously, you'd like to see them win out and creep up the national rankings. But, I wonder if a loss somewhere before the tournament might take some pressure off them?

Never bought the argument that a team on a long winning streak should lose before the post-season. Of course a loss can sometimes re-adjust a team's focus, but I don't think there is a circumstance where a loss can be more beneficial than a win. I say win 'em all.

This is completely off topic, but i just NY-BG i just noticed ur pic is of the york revolution, i was just there to see a game this past summer and i sport my hat on campus all the time.....but i agree with the whole losing will give a team its focus back. I have more faith in Miller than that

definatly an interesting question, especially if you look at the 05-06 and 06-07 seasons

They've already lost twice this year.
Take it game by game.
My hope is they win out!

Win out. We might have an outside shot at an at-large berth if we were to lose in the MACC game.

As of yesterday our RPI was 65, and our SOS was 264. As of right now we would not be getting an at large bid, but with games still to come against Ball State, Kent State, and Miami, who are all sub-100 in RPI, we've got a chance to rack up some more big wins down the stretch.
So far, we've beaten 5 teams, St. Bonaventure, Hartford, Dayton, Kent State, and Miami, who are under 100 RPI, and Hartford is under 50.
Also, aside from one game at Buffalo, we don't play anybody else with an RPI of 200+ the rest of the year, so our overall SOS should be MUCH better by season's end. So if we were to win out, or even lose one against a team like BSU or Kent, an at large isn't out of the question.
