So when did we become a 11 team league

[shaunguth]

Must not be showing up on my computer.....I don't see any problems.

[shaunguth]

Very strange! When I looked at the post in edit mode, it showed up.

Better now?

[Da Coach]

Too much computer language when you look at the edit mode with all those colors and columns. But thanks for the update.


Here are the other games from tonight-

Northern Iowa beat Missouri State in Cedar Falls 48-37 . This qualifies as an "ugly game of the night" candidate with both teams shooting poorly, and nobody on Missouri State scoring in double figures.

And a real "shocker"- Wichita State goes down at Southern Illinois 64-62 on a shot by freshman Jalen Pendleton, from Evansville, with 2 seconds left in the game. SIU trailed by 17 points in the first half, but lead much of the second half. Wichita State lost for the 3rd game in a row, since pounding Bradley 73-39 back on Jan. 26.

And the basket that won it for SIU never went in, as they called a pretty controversial Goal Tend call on WSU. I could see the call going either way, but the one replay I saw from the other end of the court looked like the ball was still going up or at the peak of it's arc. In a tie game, I think you let that play go as a block and let the teams decide it in overtime.

It was close, but I think it was the right call. Wichita should not be complaining about that call, as there is no way they should have even been in that position to lose that game.

The controversial goaltending call can be seen about 1:30 into the highlight video-

Another view- here it is about 1 minute into the video--

one other note about the standings...

did anyone else note that ISU has been well behind Bradley in the MVC standings all year...right??
..but still I have never seen even one thread, nor even one comment from anyone trashing ISU, rubbing it in, or piling on or chanting "ISU su*ks"...etc..

...anyone care to know how much of that went on among ISU fans during the extremely short interval that BU was doing poorly and ISU actually was doing better? (if "better" can be described as finishing .500 last year in the league and getting an NIT bid)
Ahem...the difference defines the class of the fan bases.....

---------------------
We now have more wins than anyone else in conference (12)!!!
Bad thing is we have more losses too (12)

[tornado]

we are four games back of Creighton with six to play - so not only can we catch them - we actually kinda need to so we can get have top seed and get what looks like is gonna be the only bid the MVC might land..

I believe - and I think Geno does, too - that every remaining game is winnable

[real fan]

You have to be joking, the rest of us will settle for 3 more wins in the Valley plus winning at UIC.

True dat real fan.

And the rest of our games are very loseable too. The odds are more favorable to finish 0-6 than 6-0...but stranger things have happened!
