If we can win on Saturday, Belmont has to contend with a Drake team in Nashville - would love to see Drake win one there to give Belmont a 3rd loss and create even more breathing room in first place.
Even more? It's tied. 😆
Hoping for some help from the Thursday squads tonight.
Saluki Insider? I barely know her!

Entertaining start to the Evansville/Belmont game.
Evansville is nailing just about everything from 3 from the start.
Belmont up 4 at the half over Evansville
Northern Iowa up 17 at the half over Valpo
Bradley ends the half fouling a 3 point shooter and then Wardle got T'd up. Illinois State hits 4 free throws and leads 40-36 at the half.
Illinois State up against Bradley in Peoria? Am I reading that right?
I know certain folks on here don’t want to hear it, but we need Bradley to win. If they can keep in the top 75 in the NET and we somehow win at their place, that becomes another quad 1 win. May not help us much with NCAA, but certainly could help us get a NIT invite should we not make the tourney.
Bradley is getting outplayed badly by Illinois State. Redbirds are getting every rebound. Can't believe this.
Belmont beats Evansville 73-64
Bradley current trailing Illinois State by 5 with 5:02 left
