Blers' last post has inspired me to create a contest: "SWELLA'S TRANSITIVE PROPERTY CHALLENGE".
This tweet shows what I'm talking about:
The first person who can construct a chain of games like the above which concludes with the Ramblers beating either Duke, Butler or Wichita State is the winner, and gets a hearty "Well done!" from me.
Davidson lost again today, they are 3-5. Am quite surprised by that, they were pegged by many to be a top 25 team. Like Loyola’s chances against them in a few weeks.

Except for Charlotte, their losses are all againat good teams though. But still, they're a long way from being ranked.
Meanwhile, Furman is 7-1 and playing at South Florida tomorrow. They are looking like a tournament team.

Tank, I am more than impressed, I am in actual awe of your SWELLA'S TRANSITIVE PROPERTY CHALLENGE entry. It is brilliant!
Of course I get that it is meant to be a joke, what with (ha ha) you claiming that Stephen F. Austin beat Duke, but still in all it was a noble effort and deserving of a hearty "Well done!" from me.
Tank, just curious. 1) Did you work backwards from the Stephen F. Austin-Duke game to construct your chain of games. 1) How many dead ends did you meet before you got the solution? 3)How long did it take?
