      I voted for UE; I think they will be a top 5 team. I would have said Drake, but the SVD injury has me bearish on them now.

            Of the options available to choose from in the poll, the ISU one seems most plausible. They should be better than last year, and could be the surprise team. I doubt a top 5 finish, though.

              The only way Indiana State is a surprise is if they finish in the bottom 1/2. They were the surprise team down in St. Louis.

                Here's an interesting proposal if we can work out the possibilities that the teams playing at different times might make this impossible...

                ..how 'bout if BU finishes higher than ISU then 45otseoj has to attend the BU pre-game rally and if ISU finishes higher then I'll go (incognito of course - so I don't get egged) to the ISU pregame rally? I am not yet confirming -- just an early proposal??

                  Sounds like fun, but I may not make it down to St. Louis in time; student-teaching may keep me away until Friday night or Saturday...

                    Y'all will think I'm loco, but I pick siu to stay out of the play-in games. Just a gut feeling, but my gut has failed me the past 2 years with the Salukis.

                        Also, UNI will finish Top 3, which may be a surprise 4 some.

                          I'll be down regardless; ISU fan first and Valley fan second.

                            I didn't know you were in education.

                            I'll be ST too.......good thing BU will get a bye.


                            I chose ISUred because "they stand a chance against ILL in Cancun"

                              Even spending an extra year at BU to be a Super-ST!

                              And a chance is all I can ask or hope for against the Almighty Illini.

                              I'll make sure to kick the back of Sam's plane seat all the way to Mexico.
