Onto to MVC rounds 3 & 4. Should be a crazy week of games...here goes on the winners:

Wednesday...
Ramblers > INSU...not a sure pick here
Braves > Valpo....Crusaders are finding some tough sledding so far in the Valley
Aces > SIU....complete toss-up
Redbirds > DU...depends on if ISU gets their PG back

Thursday...
Bears > UNI...Panthers drop to 0-3, while MSU earns another couple of days in the Valley penthouse

Saturday...
Sycamores > DU...ISU gets their first Valley W and Bulldogs go even up in MVC play
Aces > BU...Aces also earn their first W in MVC action, but the Braves make it very tough
Crusaders > SIU....tough game to call, but I see VU getting their first ever Valley victory

Sunday...
Redbirds > MSU....this season's Valley champs will absolutely have to protect home court, so going with ISU
Panthers > LUC....going with what now looks like an upset

Man, this season is completely chock-full of terrific MVC action...love it! Really looking forward to catching all the games across the wild-and-wooly Valley on ESPN3.

Keep it rockin' MVC
