Leaving out the A-10 tournament, Richmond went 11-2 over their last 13 games. However, their 11 wins came in games they should have won. They lost to Temple and Xavier in the regular season, which was expected. I follow the A-10 very closely and this Richmond team can go cold very quickly. They struggle against teams like play physical and have some big men (like the home loss to URI).
I like Richmond to advance, but there is no way I'm putting my money on them after watching the hot/cold streaks throughout the season.
