Drake has made back to back MVC Championships a total laughing stock.  Hope the Trees can make a run.

What a run by Indiana State.  They got down 18 I think at one point

Both of these teams should be in the tournament.

And now that Drake has won, I believe that they both will.  I also believe that if they do, that gives Bradley a better shot at the NIT.  Best case scenario of course.

Hope Indiana State is in but I fear the stretch where they lost to ISUr and us is gonna kill them.

Me too, but to me the “eye test” should be a bigger factor.  Then again, I’m not on the committee.

Jacobson has the tournaments he made in his back pocket. Also UNI is still a football school to a lot of folks there.

Indiana State to the NIT - book it! Screw job of course.

1 - 4 in Quad 1. The talking heads agreed that the Sycs have a chance but unlikely to make the NCAA.

As of this AM, Lunardi has the Trees getting a play-in game as an 11.  Drake gets a 10.  No such love from Jerry Palm...

If you're gonna reply to me in the forums, please quote what I wrote that you're replying to so I have a clue...thanks! 😀

Let's hope that several teams that normally wouldn't be in the conversation for a bid (for instance, Penn State in the Big Ten) don't go on crazy upset sprees and win their conference tournaments, which would push favored teams into at-large territory and might work against Indiana State. I think that's what happened the year one of Rich Herrin's teams won 26 games and didn't receive a bid.
