Creighton wins exhibition game against Missouri Western

[AZ BU Fan]

But we're the ones that are being picked 6th, based mostly on "question marks" in the frontcourt.

IF UNI crushes some preseason exhibition creampuff, and Egleseder and Koch go wild, would that validate some posters' proposition a top MVC team or champion needs to have a strong inside presence/game?

Pollsters may be picking BU 6th this year in the MVC because they don't think BU players collectively and JL are better than the other 5 teams picked higher.

But we all know better!

The only way to know is to play the games and see what happens.

Since several teams in the Valley have good guards, the difference may be which teams' bigs produce....or help disrupt other teams' offenses.

Well, just rundown who the projected starters are and rank them from 1-10.


I'm pretty certain Lawson, Carter, Harriman (sp) don't wind up at #1, but they certainly are quite a ways from #10


I may be biased here, but I don't see Egolf, Brown, and Roberts being lower than them though...

Why do you suppose P' came off the bench?

Gravity.....?

Coming from the other side of the fence, regardless of what pollsters think, BU along with a few other top teams always have a shot. This conference has always been that way.
