MVC Teams
Northern Iowa at North Texas, 7 p.m.
North Texas may have lost Conference Player of the Year but they are still good and super quick. Northern Iowa is going to have their hands full on the road here. They're shooting really well but still down. Would be a nice win for the Valley if they could steal one on the road.

James Madison scored 5 points in less than 5 seconds at the end of regulation to send their game at Kent State into overtime. Kent State forced double overtime after being down 6 points with less than 1 minute remaining in the 1st overtime! James Madison ended up winning by 5 in double overtime. It was a crazy game! Both of these mid majors are very good. JMU is talented, athletic and deep. They look like a top 25 team after winning at Michigan State and at Kent State. They ended Kent States 26 game home winning streak. Former SIU commit Chris Payton had 25 points and 17 rebounds for Kent State.

I watched the James Madison game. They are a team to watch all season, including March Madness. SIU will have their hands full, and then some. It will be a GREAT test and hopefully a lot of fun.
