They gotta move the Missouri State game on Saturday to earlier or later, right?
they just gave the chiefs the Saturday afternoon slot vs the jags. Springfield is chiefs country; they can’t compete against that. Hope they move it to a noon game or 1 pm. Might be 500 people there otherwise.

Screw them. Published attendance yesterday was 3,200 so there might have been 2,000 there max. I doubt moving our game will help them much since most of them don't go to the Dana Ford show anyway. Plus, most of them will be at pre-game football parties regardless. Attendance will be BAD.
One thing I will saw about the Dawgs is that, with the style of basketball they play (as ugly as it can be sometimes), I feel like they are less impacted by hostile road environments. They rely heavily on defense. If the team can limit turnovers and Jones, and to a lesser extent, Domask and the guys can hit a reasonable amount of outside shots, they can win anywhere in the Valley. That's not to say they will hit their shots, as we have seen, just saying when they're on, they can win anywhere, anytime (in the Valley).
Missouri Valley games for Tuesday:
UIC @ Valparaiso 6:00 PM ESPN+ (Valpo favored by 3)
Murray State @ Belmont 8:00 PM CBS Sports Network (Belmont favored by 3)
Just curious, what's your reasoning for giving a crap about the Valpo game?Hoping for Valpo win and a Belmont loss.
Murray State was actually up for a lot of the 1st half but Belmont finishes the half on a 14-2 run and they lead at the half, 34-30. Should be a fun 2nd half.
Belmont is going to be VERY tough to beat next season. They were a great addition to this conference
I've watched this game for 5 minutes and have NO IDEA how Murray St ever had the lead. This Belmont lead is now 13 and I just can't see a short handed Murray coming back.
Go Trees 😊
KenPom has a projected 3-way tie for 1st right now between SIU, Indiana State, Belmont
One of these top 5 teams is gonna fall to Thursday, I'd guess it's the Trees right now.

Pretty sure we win the conference with that. A 2-1 common record amongst the 3 teams. I assume that is first step in a 3 way tie.
