As putrid as Bradley looked today, Evansville looks even worse against Belmont. Now down 30.
Woeful first week for most of the league.
Evansville getting absolutely dismantled @ Belmont. I'm watching the game and Belmont, at least in this game, is living up to the lofty preseason expectations.
SEMO got drubbed by Youngstown and Missouri St isn’t exactly putting away one of the worst teams in all of D1 at home. The MVC looks like hot garbage so far. Really surprising..

Missouri Valley Conference games for Sunday, November 14th:
Hanover @ #187 Indiana State 12:00 PM ESPN3
Indiana State looks to rebound from their loss at Purdue against Division 3 Hanover from Hanover, Indiana.
#185 South Dakota @ #68 Drake 2:00 PM ESPN+ (Drake favored by 15.5)
The only all-Division 1 game of the day in the MVC comes in Des Moines as the Bulldogs get their first Division 1 test of the year. South Dakota is a decent team picked to finish 4th in the Summit League. The Coyotes beat Air Force by 6 on Thursday.
Dubuque @ #141 Northern Iowa 5:00 PM ESPN3
The Panthers look to get their first win of the season against Division 3 Dubuque
Drake looking pretty good against South Dakota. Their press is having a major impact here in the first half. Hopefully SIU can improve in that area as the season plays out.
Drake wins 99-50 against a South Dakota team that's really not all that bad.
Missouri Valley Conference Games for Tuesday, November 16th:

#116 Murray State @ #210 Illinois State 7:00 PM ESPN3 (Murray St favored by 3)

#357 Chicago State @ #32 Loyola Chicago 7:00 PM ESPN+ (Loyola favored by 33)
Did you know Chicago State is 2-0? The Cougars have wins over the newest D1 school, St. Thomas and SIUe. Chicago State is still ranked by KenPom as the 2nd worst D1 team ahead of Mississippi Valley State. Guessing everyone will be tuned in for this battle of the unbeatens in Chicago.
Just read where Loyola will be joining the A-10 after this season. This one hurts.

Missouri State gets a tough road test against a Sam Houston team that lost by 9 at Nebraska. Sam Houston was picked to finish 7th in the WAC in the preseason poll.
I watched Illinois State game. Muller must want to get fired, one of the worst coached games I have ever witnessed.
The advancement and diffusion of knowledge is the only guardian of true liberty.
