Old School MVC wrote:I agree with both of you. Like Bradley Fan 71 said, If Bradley finishes 6th again this year their fans will not feel happy or as if it is a major step forward. On the other hand, I agree with the Redbird posters who think they will finish playing on Thursday again which will make Brave fans start to question Wardle.
I just think that if they avoid Thursday, it will be a happy day in Peoria. 7 years in a row is a long time!

https://sports.yahoo.com/ranking-colleg ... 30364.htmlI expected to see the MVC at #8 and then was shocked when I didn’t even see them at #9. Might be worth an e-mail to the writer to figure out what his methodology is because it’s not RPI or KenPom. The article would trigger me if I were a member of an MVC school.
Seems this guy got a bit lazy to finish this article off and just selected historically better conferences without doing some homework first.
He has been emailed! Thanks for the share.

Valpo having a rough night. More turnovers in the first 7 minutes than shot attempts. Trees lead 11-2.

In typical Indiana State fashion, the Sycamores bolt to a 12 point 1st half lead, only to coast, lose the lead, and trail by 3 at the half to Valpo.

These two teams appear destined for Thursday night from the looks of this one.
