Can I change my margin of victory prediction?

so I guess if UConn wins by less than Fordham than Fordham is the better team?

Do we know if Fordham is any good?
I'm a '79 Fordham grad and our women's team was really good a couple of my years there. Nationally ranked, even.
The only highlight of the men's season was the Notre Dame game when we could boo Digger Phelps for abandoning us for greener (literally) pastures. Although he did get the last laugh, as Notre Dame fans far outnumbered Fordham fans at the Garden.

Yes, you just have to state that it is a change to your original prognostication.

She was fired on very short notice. Reports from some of her former players, such as this one, likely give some reasons:

Wow! Assuming that is all true (or even part of it) which of course there is no reason to doubt, one can only hope that coach never coaches again! It always amazes me when I hear about these abusive, vindictive, power mad authority figures who are in charge of young people! How do they get away with this sort of thing? I hope and pray this young lady has managed to put this terrible experience behind her and is living a happy and fulfilled life.

I hope we can get some chat-room chat from folks in the building...let us know who looks good...and some
Dixville Notch impressions of the team. And....keep an eye out for anyone who looks 'interesting' behind the bench...hopefully there might be a couple of underclass kids who might be future Huskies.
