I noticed NCCU (10-10, 3-3) is at NSU (14-7, 4-) on ESPNU tonight. Have other MEAC games been broadcasted this season? If so, what games are remaining?
I also see UMES and Howard are atop the leaderboard, What?

I also see UMES and Howard are atop the leaderboard, What? umes is "surprising" everybody, including me! not only because they're in first place, but also because they "upset" temple. mind you, temple ain't no doggone "slouch". temple is 14-9 with upset wins of their own over #16 villanova at the time and yes, "#1" in the country at the time, houston...

The MEAC teams are balling in basketball. That is why I got cussed out for saying the CAA basketball teams are no better than the MEAC teams with the exception of one.

One thing about Norfolk - they keep a tall team. Their backcourt length, especially on defense, can give legitimate DI teams fits. That's how they beat Missouri back in the day in the Big Dance. Missouri had a buncha shrimps trying to battle Norfolk's 6'6 guards. This will bode well for the Spartans moving forward.

NCCU had former Coppin 7' center who was MEAC blocked shot leader as freshman and soph. He left for ODU and left there for McNESSE State... now with the Eagles, guess the grass was not greener. .

I have been saying that from the start. And even that one is not as dominant as some on here think . We basically beat ourselves by playing Rec ball instead of controlled disciplined ball .

He’s got distractions thanks to the lawsuit and his now-wife’s job on The Real Housewives of Potomac, which she may be let go from.

No need to cuss you out when you're incorrect! Simple "You wrong." would do! Roy, you got your opinion and I got mine. I have not seen any teams in the CAA that are much better than the MEAC teams. Charleston is having an exceptional year and that is about it. Quit trying to make the CAA something it is not.

For what it's worth: Sagarin rankings: Colonial 21st; MEAC 29th RPI rankings: Colonial 18th; MEAC 26th
Bracketology has UMES as a 16 seed; College of Charleston is a 12th seed

But what is the CAA's record against MEAC teams this year Outside of College of Charleston ?

yes, "head-to-head" records are a better indicator of conference strength than "rankings" which are simply someone's opinion. look, as an meac "loyalist", i'd be the first to admit "from top to bottom" that the caa is a stronger overall conference than the meac. however, there is no evidence that the caa is "head and shoulders" stronger than the meac in basketball. other than coc, the top 4 teams in the meac are just as talented as most other caa teams.
and as an fcs conference, the caa is no longer as strong as it used to be before programs like james madison and odu transitioned to the fbs level...
