I'll predict not this. Ha. Hopefully it isn't the Shox to blame, but we'll have to see.

Wisconsin-Milwaukee @ Loyola
Chicago State @ Bradley
Western Kentucky @ Indiana State

Could go Either way
WSU vs. Oklahoma
Murray State @ Evansville
Valparaiso @ Missouri State

Upset Watch
North Dakota @ UNI (UNI's reliance on 3s puts them on upset watch for every game for the rest of the year)

I don't think we should be putting Drake in a "Should Win" category until at least 2018.

Big day today, SIU starts us off at 1:00pm

everything is watchable online, WSU on ESPN2

Indiana state, Evansville,and missouri state lose.

Interesting comment on the upset watch.

North Dakota is just 7 points from being 7-0 albeit with 3 wins over non D1 teams.

Wins over C-B and NDSU won't turn heads, but NDSU had an "easier time" at Mo State than at home against UND.

Can't put too much into like opponents but if UNI gives another Mason effort they'll be in trouble at home. Are the Panthers back to full health yet? I still expect a comfortable UNI win.



I think it's about 50-50 the Valley goes 10-0. Maybe 40-60.

ISU and UE aren't losing unless something tragic happens. You may not have seen UE play this season but they are completely different. Missouri State may very well lose.

I think the order of likelihood to lose is (from most likely to least):

1)MSU (Valpo has only lost to Oregon and Kentucky & has beat Rhode Island, BYU and 'Bama)
2)WSU (until they beat a good team they have to be questioned, playing the best or 2nd best team today)
3)Drake (just because they're Drake. New coach should have them excited to win though)
4)UNI (especially if still shorthanded)
5)Evansville (Murray State is a play in Valley team at best)
6)ISUb (seem better against best teams, and WKU isn't good)
7)SIU (SHSU is awful)
8)ISUr (only chance to lose is poor coaching, so there's a chance)
9)Loyola (Milwaukee is bad, the Ramblers are not)
10)Bradley (Chicago State hasn't beaten a D1 team not named Western Illinois since 2-18-15, and even then, you have to check Utah Valley's status)
