By Atlantic 11 | Weekly Men's Basketball Poll

Tuesday, February 17, 2009

With conference tournaments fast becoming the area's only shot of getting teams into the NCAA tournament, what's the point of paying attention? To keep track of Dan Steinberg's Atlantic 11, of course.

1. Virginia Tech (16-8)
461 (12) Next: Tomorrow at Virginia
Malcolm Delaney just moved up to fourth place on the Web site myfavoritemalcolm.com, passing McDowell and trailing Jamal Warner, in the Middle and X. (Bill Fitzgerald)
2. Maryland (16-8)
439 (20) Next: Tonight at Clemson
The last time Gary Williams was so pumped up by a three-part series was on 16, 17, and 18 at Congressional. (Markus Videnieks)
3. Va. Commonwealth (18-8)
424 (8) Next: Tomorrow vs. Delaware
Can the Atlantic 11 petition Congress for part of the stimulus money to come up with new Eric Maynor pith? (Jack Lambert)
4. George Mason (17-8)
335 (2) Next: Tomorrow vs. Drexel
Resorting to desperate measures because of recent struggles on the road, the Patriots all put on ruby red sneakers, tapped them together and chanted: "There's no place like home" before last week's game at James Madison. (Sean McLernon)
5. VMI (20-6)
316 (3) Next: Saturday vs. Radford
The East played more defense in Sunday's NBA All-Star Game than VMI typically does. (Scott Allen)
6. Georgetown (13-10)
292 (6) Next: Tomorrow at South Florida
Should be an interesting race to see what gets to .500 first: the Hoyas' record or the Dow Jones industrial average. (Chris Chase)
7. American (17-7)
284 (6) Next: Tomorrow at Army
American's RPI suffers for having to play so many Patriot League games. Next year it's going to combat this by scheduling a home and home with the Division II champions. (bsopchak)
8. Old Dominion (16-9)
169 Next: Tomorrow at UNC Wilmington
I wonder who has more fans, ODU or the Sacramento Monarchs? (Michael Palan)
9. Liberty (19-8)
115 Next: Saturday at No. 8 Old Dominion
A Flame war broke out during practice recently over an argument about whose jump shot was the most pious. (Jamie Paquette)
10. Mount St. Mary's (16-10)
58 Next: Thursday at Wagner
Hotter than Gary Williams's collar. (John Albers)
11. Morgan State (15-10)
56 Next: Tomorrow at Howard
