The Dayton Flyers and George Washington Colonials will meet in an Atlantic 10 Conference game at the Smith Center. This game will be televised on ESPN2. Dayton comes in off blowout win over Fordham. George Washington looks to get back on track after back-to-back road losses to Richmond and VCU. The Colonials are nearly unbeatable at the Smith Center and we should expect that dominance to continue.

Here are my keys to the game:

Colonials dominance at home-GW has won all nine of its home games this season and will carry an 11-game home win streak into Friday's contest against Dayton. The Colonials' current 11-game home win streak is tied as the 21st-longest in the nation and second longest in the A-10 behind Dayton's 17-game run. It is also the 10th-longest in program history.

Flyers struggles on the road- Dayton is just 3-3 in true road games this season with losses at Davidson (77-60) and Massachusetts (66-64) in its most recent road contests. Its best win on the road was against St. Bonaventure.

X-Factor- The Colonials are one of only 11 Division I teams to not allow an opponent to score more than 75 points in a game so far this season.

Selection: This is a play on George Washinton(10*)
