Should be a challenging week for Valley teams, but we may see a couple of surprise upsets for the MVC. Alright, here goes on the winners:

Mon-
Minnesota > Bulldogs

Tue-
Sycamores > Green Bay

Wed-
Braves > UALR
Salukis > Jackson St.

Thurs-
Northwestern > Crusaders (NU has proven to be very beatable, so VU has a decent shot here)

Sat-
WKU > Sycamores (would be a good Valley W if ISU could take this one)
Iowa > Bulldogs (could be a heck of a game)
Ramblers > Milwaukee
Braves > Chicago St.
Ole Miss > Redbirds (can definitely see ISU pulling an upset here)
Aces > Austin PeaY
Panthers > Iowa St. (would help solidify an impressive UNI non-con)

Sun-
Salukis > Lamar

Bonus-
Murray St. > SLU (possible Valley team against an MVC hold out....go Racers)

Looking forward to seeing plenty of hoops action acros the Valley on ESPN3..ooo yeah!

I predict the Bears won't lose this week unless, of course, having Lusk still be coach at the end of the week is losing then, it is a certainty the Bears lose this week.

Drake up 28-24 on Minnesota at the Half.

Top scoring team in the Big 10 vs top scoring team in MVC.....not what I would have expected in first half, but I'll take it.

Just over ten minutes left and Drake hanging tough... Okay Drake!!!

Edit: Everyone should catch the last 10 seconds of this game. Shoulda had a chance for overtime as Woodward was fouled on a circus 3pt make after stealing the inbounds pass with 5 seconds to go. Nice showing!

Drake lost by 1 to Minnesota 68-67. Played tough.

Great effort, never gave up. Just couldn't stop the Gophers interior game.
