[Da Coach]

There are 8 games involving MVC teams today, Saturday, Dec. 6.

7 of the MVC teams in action are playing against teams with losing records. Only Wichita State is playing a team with a winning record (St. Louis). Could the MVC go 8-0?
6 of the MVC teams are favored- the only two underdogs are Ball State (-2) at home vs. Indiana State, and Memphis (-11-5) at home vs. Bradley.

given how weak all the MVC opponents are in today's games...
I say we go 6-2 or better with Drake & BU being the only games that might be tight

MVC starts off Saturday 1-2
Loyola beat UIC 77-67 Doyle 19
Indiana State loses to Ball State 70-63
Drake Loses to North Dakota 63-62

[Da Coach]

Tough luck for Drake. They scored the first 10 points, then maintained the lead for the first 39 minutes and 46 seconds. North Dakota took their only lead with 14 seconds left, then Drake missed a couple good chances on their last possession.

Wichita pounding Saint Louis by 25



edit --
Wichita won 81-52
SIU beats Austin Peay 71-49
Evansville beats IUPUI 89-62
UNI stays undefeated vs. George Mason 71-65

MVC will go 5-3



one game that was on ESPN, Xavier hammered Alabama at Alabama 97-84..Remy Abell was a stud - his stats (12 pts, 4 reb, 5 asst) don't
fully indicate how much he controlled the game and willed his team too win

[Da Coach]

By the way, for those who missed it, the same St. Louis team that beat Bradley last weekend, just got blasted by Wichita State today by 29 points.

So is anyone looking forward to 2 games against Wichita State?
