Dayton basketball fan fest on Saturday, Oct. 14, 2017, at Welcome Stadium in Dayton.

Fans of the Dayton Flyers still like their teams chances in the Atlantic 10. I asked fans on Sunday to predict the standings in advance of the preseason poll, which will be released on Tuesday at A-10 Media Day in Washington, D.C.

Rhode Island is the expected favorite. I picked St. Bonaventure in my own preseason prediction. Eighty nine fans voted in my poll, and as you might expect, they picked the two-time defending champion Flyers as the preseason favorite.
