Looks like Southern's late-year slide was not lost on Vegas. Even worse odds to win Arch Madness than one of the play-in teams (Valpo). Yeesh.

1) No, the same odds as Drake.
2) Hate to be the spelling/grammar police, but good lord, man.
Odds aside, it is a very difficult draw for Southern, starting with Bradley and then UNI on the same side of the bracket if the Salukis pull an upset on Friday.
Bradley is a rough matchup because they rebound really well, one of SIU's main weaknesses. Kennell is having a helluva senior year shooting the ball, Childs is a load, and Henry and the Finnish sniper give BU depth off the bench that Southern will be hard-pressed to match. SIU's best bet is for Darrell Brown to have one of his bad shooting games and Wardle's manic intensity on the bench to result in a technical or two. 😛
Oh, and the Salukis (Domask, McGill and Benson in particular) are going to have to look a lot more like the team from 3 weeks ago than the one we've seen lately, or it will get ugly.

It's good news that (some) people are actually upset a team picked last isn't likely to win on Friday. I think a lot of people are realistic though. No matter what happens, they made this season more fun than it could have been.
Why we will beat the Gargoyles!
- Bradley had a very tough, exhausting game against Loyola.
- Bradley will get one less day of rest.
- We floated through the last 12 minutes of our game and did not exhaust our dilithium crystals. (except Jones but his warp drive is in great shape)
- It's tough to beat a team three times.
- Domask, Benson, and McGill will not have a repeat of those last couple games.
- Lance Brown has found his shot.
- Trent Jones is unstoppable and will get at least 10 FT chances.
- Morris is wrong about darn near everything! 😆

Very well played sir
Nice, but we really might not win.
Let's just enjoy the season that none of us ever expected in our wildest dreams😉
But I think we can beat Bradley. 😊

My spelling and grammar are worse than yours...so don't worry about that.
But your reason for not going (poor odds of winning?) is silly.
Here's why.
This season's SIU squad is fun to watch...they're well-coached...and they generally play hard, and play the right way.
They played meaningful bball games damn near to the end of the MVC regular season--a surprise to virtually all of the 'experts'.
And careful examination of the play of a couple of SIU's freshmen can't help but whet the appetite of even the most cynical sports fan: the future is bright for SIU MBB.
But don't get me started on SIU WBB... 🤔
(1) US COVID-19 statistics (February 29, 2020-June 16, 2020): 2,124,000 reported cases and 115,052 deaths
(2) Donald Trump (June 15, 2020) told a group of senior citizens that there would be very few cases of COVID-19 if the US stopped its testing and contact tracing: "If we stop testing right now, we'd have very few cases, actually."
(3) Donald Trump [(Jan 20, 2020), when asked if he's worried about a pandemic]: “No. Not at all. And we have it totally under control. It’s one person coming in from China, and we have it under control. It’s — going to be just fine.”
Who cars... We were better when nobody believed in us. Let them doubt again, we are going to be ready Friday. Odds mean nothing, go show them!
