An MVC team goes to the Sweet 16 and Bradley doesn't finish last.

When defections trim the Salukis roster to only 4 players, Lowery will try to suit up and enter games under an assumed identity.

His inability to find a uniform in a size that could possibly fit him will expose his attempted fraud.

In most cases, I could care less if a valley team tanks. Of course I wish all to do well in non-conference, but only because it helps the jays. However, I truly feel bad for siu. I thought we had it bad going from Barone to Johnson, but clo makes Johnson look like like a stud. The jays need siu to be good for the sake of a good rivalry. I miss our old friend.

And yes wsu, I'm glad you are back for the same reason. Try to stick around for a few years. :buddies:

I think it would be one of the biggest surprises in my mind if BU finishes last. Though Missouri St. has been the biggest surprise so far, as I had them finishing 8th or 9th with all that they lost.

And while I still believe Bradley finishes between 6-7 in the Valley, the way they've started at 3-0 is somewhat surprising to me. Tonight, not a very well played game in general, but they have found ways to win so far. The next 3 may result in losses, but I'm hopeful in at least 1 win, and that we play tough in the Chicago Invitational next weekend.

And that MVC team would be named "Creighton" if any team has a remote chance of going to the Sweet 16.
Doubtful, be we ARE talking about surprises. Even the great CU teams from '99-'07 didn't get there.
