Good win Aces.

Bears have a lot to still figure out. 3 losses at home is not acceptable. Had 3 total in last 3 years combined I believe

Apparently nobody taught these Aces the meaning of the word quit. That's a gutty win on the road.


14 and 14 for Troy Taylor. Colossal failure by the Bears, at home against an inferior opponent.

There are now only 2 teams in the Valley that can even consider an at large. And if CU sweeps regular and post season titles, it could be one again.

Bears lay it in to cut it back to 3. 85-82. 53 seconds to go.


You realize you are sticking it to a fellow WSU fan with the Colt Ryan "garbage points" comments? I'm not complaining though. It's funny as heck.

Congrats to the Aces! Just when Thursday looked like a sure thing for EU and BU they go and pull off the upsets. Indiana State is my other pick for Thursday (along with SIU)...Ugh!!! To Terra Heute we go.

Great win now UE needs to take care of business at home in the next 2 and put this Thursday talk to bed.

So nice to see the Aces get a few breaks and win one of these close ones after all those gut-wrenching loses.

They fought hard to the very end and finally got rewarded!

Go Aces!
Wishing I was back home again.

The Bears simply aren't in the same league at the top of the Valley with WSU and CU at this point. This loss makes that obvious.

Thanks buddy. Our players needed and deserved this win for all the one possession games we could not put away. Our performance against Drake scared me. We needed to know that they would not "lay down" in Springfield. No way are we supposed to beat the Bears when you look at their roster and their post men.

Time to drink a beer!

Good luck, I think Terra Heute is somewhere in Afganistan.

I disagree. I believe there is more parity in the MVC on any given night. The Aces took the Shockers to the wire and there is no way in hell that we should do that. The Shockers then barely beat Illinois State on their own turf. We have more parity then some of us want to admit.

I still believe that CU, WSU, and MSU have the balance teams and depth needed for the NCAAs. The rest of us have too many warts. That said, if CU, WSU, or MSU do not play well, any team will beat you in this league.
