As the Atlantic 10 conference season heats up, George Washington finds itself in desperate need of quality wins to build a tournament resume, currently sitting at 92 in the NET rankings. A win over Rhode Island, who boasts a slightly lower NET ranking of 118, would be a significant boost, especially considering the Rams' decent quad record, including a 1-2 mark in Quad 1 games. The Colonials, on the other hand, have struggled against top-tier opponents, going 0-3 in Quad 1 matchups.
