Official MVCfans.com Prediction - 3rd Place

Postby MVCfans » September 26th, 2010, 7:31 am

Each week we will open a poll for users to predict the end of season finish for the MVC 2010-2011 basketball season. We will work in reverse order, concluding with the predicted MVC champion chosen by our users between the last two teams remaining in week 9 (just in time for MVC media days).

Last week, Northern Iowa was predicted to finish in 4th place.


Week 8 - Who will finish in 3rd place during the 2010-2011 MVC mens basketball season?

-You are choosing the team that you believe will finish in 3rd place for this regular season. Poll open until the evening of Friday 10/1.


Official MVCfans.com - Predictions:
10th Place - Evansville
9th Place - Southern Illinois
8th Place - Drake
7th Place - Illinois State
6th Place - Indiana State
5th Place - Bradley
4th Place - Northern Iowa

If Echenique is as good as advertised, I'd pick Wsu or Msu here. Just not sure though, so Cu makes the most sense.

I have to go with CU here. The returning guys don't have the ability to finish top 2 without substantial help from the freshmen and Mr. Echineque. McDermott may well be able to put this together without the P'headache of a certain disfunctional player. But I think it will take a while for it to gell. My guess is they will be maybe a game ahead of .500 at the half way point and come on strong to finish 3rd and garner an NIT home game - if not the start to another string of St. Louis celebrations.

Seems like the only close vote was between the ISU's. The MVC must be a in for a predictable and boring year.

I picked MSU. While last year was certainly close, 7 to 2 is a tough job when most teams look to be improved from last season.

Creighton obviously has the best 1-2 punch in the post in the Valley, if not all of D1. MSU has Creekmore and the other guy. Edge, CU.

Since MSU beat CU 2 of 3 last year and most of the main players return for both I voted for CU 3rd.

Since WSU has most back and swept MSU, WSU 1st and MSU 2nd.

There, poll over. :D
