This will be a good test. Getting a victory here would be really nice for the Valley with as many road wins as they're piling up early, tough not to start expecting the league to be up this year.

Hopefully we can get this one for the valley. UAB lost 3 starters but return Moore who is 6-10 and is the conference USA preseason player of the year. UAB also doesn't lose at home very much and Creighton hasn't won a true nonconference road game in a few years. I think this one will be a tossup.

I just dont see any way that a team from the lowly MVC can hang with a CUSA school. UAB by 20+.

The top team in the Valley should beat a middle of the pack team in CUSA. If preseason predictions are accurate anyway...

Wish this one were on TV.

The Valley has to have these games if we are going to get back to 2-3 bids in March. Time for CU to show them what's what and to take care of business like the preseason MVC pick should.

CU should win this game tonight. They are the valley favorite and if the valley is as good as I hope the preseason champ should be able to take out a so so team from CUSA

If the game was at home, I would think CU wins convincingly.

Until the team shows it can win on the road however, I'm not real confident.

I think we have the better overall team, but it is hard to be confident against an NCAA team from last year on their floor, especially when they are something like 54-8 at home the past 4 years.

These are the type of games this league absolutely has to have, the games we consistently won during our multiple NCAA bids run.

These are the games the #1 team in the conference needs to win.


Go Bluejays!
