What an absolutely woeful finish for Chicago St to allow a wide open layup and then not going for the last shot until it was too late.
That was the worst effort by Chicago State in the last minute I have seen in a while! Absolutely played no defense on the last 2 Murray State possessions resulting in uncontested layups and didn't call a timeout or ran any kind of play with 15 seconds left. Murray has now won 19 games in a row at home.
Speaking of Murray, did anyone watch their game against Bellarmine? Rob Perry basically punched a Bellarmine player in the face late in the game. And those were the words of one of the announcers, who added that Perry should have been tossed from the game. The refs, oddly enough, ordered that the replay not be shown on TV. he did receive a flagrant foul, but it was totally uncalled for.

I only saw the last minute of Murray tonight but I did check the game cast earlier and notice that DJ Burns got a technical. Burns and Perry are extremely unlikeable players in my opinion.
Indeed Kyle, I've watched multiple games and they are an unlikeable team. Would LOVE to see a Saluki SWEEP this year for more than just the obvious reasons.
Murray should never have won that game. Chi State is really bad and Murray isn't much better.
And if you saw any of UIC, they are awful. Can't believe how bad the MVC is this year.

@salukiworld does siu have the best non conference win so far?
looking like another bad day for the valley depending on what drake and bradley do.
do you know anything about the pre game technical against indiana state? just getting home from work and trying to catch up for the day
Surprised Indiana St went down. They were leading most of the game.
SIU and Valpo have the only quad 1 wins so far.@salukiworld does siu have the best non conference win so far?

Shaping up to be another poor day for the Valley. Drake-Saint Louis is the biggest game of the day though, would be a great game to steal.
The odds of DeVries missing all three of those free throws was 125 to one. Against that is. I always liked stats.
