Fairleigh Dickinson 78 Quinnipiac 77 (another bad loss for Q; FDU hits a game-winning free throw with 2 seconds left) St. John's 79 St. Peter's 69 (down 73-50 at the 7-minute mark, Peacocks go on a 19-2 run to make it interesting) Rider 89 Bucknell 69 (another good OOC win for the Broncs)
William & Mary 63 Old Dominion 43 (Tribe is 6-3) Oakland 72 Western Michigan 62 (Golden Grizzlies are 5-4, including a 30-point loss to Maryland) Arkansas State 78 Omaha 73 (Johnson scores 22, 5-6 from three)

Quinnipiac started the game down 21-3 and fought back to tie the game with 5 seconds left. Then they fouled with 2 seconds to send FDU to the line for the win. Was following on gamecast so not sure if that was a mental error or not but a tough loss to swallow for the Bobcats.

It is interesting to note that 13 other conferences have worse OOC records than the MAAC does, yet most of them are rated higher. That appears to be due to the fact that our OOC schedules are the weakest in the country.

MAAC is #28 according to Sagarin, so a little better than RealTime RPI, but not much. Behind Atlantic Sun (#27), America East (25) and Patriot (23).
27-42 as a conference. Only 4 of the 27 wins are schools rated in the top 200, per Sagarin: Vermont (#112), St. Bonaventure (#154) (twice), Radford (#188).
However since November 2118, the NCAA does not use RPI, Sagarin, or Pomeroy as the official Computer Ranking. They now use the NET which ranks the MAAC at 28th . warrennolan.com/basketball/2019/conferencenet

Where is Warren Nolan getting his info? He has the OOC record as 41-92. That's 133 games. That would mean, on average, each MAAC team has played about 12 games ... but no one has played anywhere near that many games yet.
I think those are last year's numbers.
