Drake laid an egg in the 1st half at the bears. 41-26 at half following same covid layoff as ours. We'll see how they play in the 2nd half, but looking like loss #1. Bears are pretty good.

Drake wins and moves to 14-0.  Didn't seem like rust was an issue at all, especially in the 2nd half.  Won every loose ball.

They had rust and looked terrible in the 1st half. Don't think that can be disputed. They showed they are a great, top 20 team in the 2nd half with an incredible comeback. The amazing thing is Drake has had better halves several times this year than they had tonight against the Bears in the 2nd half. They are for real and barring a collapse should have an at large bid pretty much locked up, if they need it. Their net is around #10 in the country.

St. Louis Blues sent out an email to season ticket holders today saying that they will start selling tickets for the upcoming home stand with hopes of increasing available tickets for future games.  May impact Arch Madness...

Drake wins and moves to 15-0.  Missouri State is very good too but it's clearly Drake's season.  Valley is really looking like a 2 bid league right now with Loyola and Drake.

I noticed Mosley extends and leads with his left hand on almost every drive he made in the Drake games.  Some where he nearly straight armed his defender.  Offensive fouls should have been called multiple times on him.  Evansville will have him in foul trouble in the first three minutes of each half the way they hit the floor with any minor contact from a driver.  I don't like that aspect of Evansville's style of play, but that style looks like it would be a really good defensive plan to guarding Mosley.

Drake and Loyola will be a lot of fun to watch. Should be some high level basketball with two teams that could legitimately be in the top 25 by seasons end. Hopefully those games (which are at Drake if I remember correctly) will be nationally televised. It's exactly what the MVC needs.

Valpo beats Bradley in double OT.  Valpo lost Clay for both OT's and still pulled out a win.  Not sure Bradley is any good outside of Childs.

Not this year. They are the 4th best team maybe.  Mo State has the talent but not the coaching.  This is Drake vs Loyola  end of story
