Would not be surprised to see us to go 0'fer. Needs to be a big weekend.

Surely WSU will rise to the challenge. Not sure about UNI right now. MSU needs to prove it can win on the road.

Unsure wins: WSU, UNI, MSU

Unsure losses: UE, ISUr, Loyola, ISUb

Losses: Drake, BU

My guess
Boise State @ Evansville Win

Fresno State @ Drake Loss

San Diego State @ Loyola Loss

New Mexico @ Illinois State Win

Nevada @ Bradley Loss

Wichita State @ Colorado State Win

Northern Iowa @ Wyoming Win

Missouri State @ Air Force Win

Indiana State @ Utah State Loss

5-4 would be the best case scenario

Gonna be a tough game for Loyola; had another bought of bad luck as Donte Ingram went down with what looked like could be a serious injury against Norfolk (early word is the ACL is okay; concern after the game was much less than when he went down on the court).

Not sure if he'll be able to go but we already lost our other wing forward Matt Chastain in the third game of the season to an ACL (Killer; our fans keep saying but kid was gonna be a stud this year).

If Ingram suits up and can play meaningful minutes i think we can keep it competitive, but SDS is a stellar program. If he's not there the Ramblers front court depth will realllllllllllly be tested...

I have not been on the Loyola bandwagon, but they have certainly had more than their share of season-ending injuries over the past couple of seasons. Hopefully that is not the case with Ingram.

I feel good about us getting the W at home.
I would attack Oliver early and often down low with Koch. Oliver has 9 fouls in his last 2 games.
Hopefully we can force Marshall into taking and missing tough shots all night.
Win the free throw and rebounding battles. We are the deeper team. Run Run Run.
Defend our house. This game can set the tone that we can beat anybody left on the schedule at our place.
Go get it done guys. InWardleWeTrust.

We will be lucky to win 4.

I could realistically see us winning anywhere from 2-7 wins. It's interesting because it seems like the stronger teams for both conferences are all on the road and the weaker ones are all at home.

Could be very one sided one way or the other.

Eugh. MCL sprain for Ingram. SDS could potentially bulldoze us; he's a major glue guy who's taken some big steps this year.

Bummer. Best of luck on a full and speedy recovery to Ingram.
