I suspect Coach Wardle welcomes teams to think they are a push over at anytime. You have to play close to perfect to beat them at Peoria. They are one of the toughest teams, no doubt.

What's everyone's read on tonight's game? Loser ends up in the play in games for sure?

I think Indiana State wins handily. Seeing them in person on Saturday, they're still playing hard and defending plus Barnes is coming off a game where he didn't shoot well. Missouri State may have given up at this point.

I get the same read from Indiana State. Watched them in Valpo last Wednesday and that game was an absolute dogfight. Nobody got anything easy that night and both offenses struggled mightily at times.

Keyshawn Evans is out 1-3 weeks with a bone contusion if that affects anyone's Redbirds selections...

You guys could play your manager at PG and my Salukis would still have a hard time playing in Normal--we haven't won there since 2007

This could be your best chance in years then.

A loss would help cement the Bears as a PIG team and get rid of Lusk...so I expect them to find a way to win tonight...

I knew it had been a while since SIU has won there, but I didn't realize it had been that long... With the lack of depth that the Salukis have, and no dominant scorer, I don't see why Thursday would be any different for the Dawgs. Should be an exciting game though for sure!

I didn't say SIU wasn't going to win--just that it would be a tough game
