Good, sell Southern short. I like our chances when we're the rested team. Not 100% sure on the Missouri State figuring it out thing. True, Missouri State won at Indiana State and beat Murray at home, but they lost to UNI at home the game before that. Also, I wouldn't sell UIC short. They have a shot against the Bears Thursday night. It's going to be a fun Arch Madness!

 

Not sure who this guy is, (and I get this is tongue in cheek humor).

That said, it is still full of douche baggery. No disrespect intended. 😎 

 

 

He's the beat writer for the Springfield, MO newspaper. I think he has a show on a local radio station, too.

 

Makes sense, he's showing his bias toward the Bears. Needs to be a little more funny and clever if he is going to write an ongoing satire/humor list.

He has taken plenty of shots at the Bears over time. I would not call him a homer by any stretch.

Personally, I welcome the irreverence ... not every quip is going to be a crowd-pleaser, but I think it's refreshing to not take everything so seriously and gush about everyone and everything 24/7.

The line about Murray fans parking their horses is absolutely hilarious.

Southern not getting a lot of love in Vegas. 14-1 to win Arch Madness, while Belmont and Indiana State are much shorter odds despite being lower seeds. Drake is the favorite despite being the 2 seed. I can see Southern getting some action at 14-1.

Wow, you don't usually see Vsin and FanDuel differ that much. The Vsin article was from this morning. Wonder if the line has moved that much already. If so, that's a huge move!

Could the Bears go back to Cuonzo Martin if they fire Ford?  Seems like a natural fit

I don't know. I get the sense that he wasn't liked very well in Springfield. Did he go straight to Knoxville from there or did he make a stopover at Cal first?

I would have thought he got one more with their rebuild. The recent Sexual misconduct charges might have sped up the time line though.

Bears board seems fine with Cuonzo but their favorite seems to be Kansas State assistant Rodney Perry.  He has ties to the area, played for Missouri State, and has an impressive track record.

just 6th place he could survive. Add the Sexual misconduct charges and he is done.
