Trivia Question:
How many MVC Tournament Titles has Wichita State won in the last 30 years since 1987?

Answer is below but mouse over to see- and it's gonna surprise a whole lot of people...

Wichita State has won only ONE Tourney Championship in their undefeated season of 2014 - but only one...
they have been upset in several of the past seasons!

http://www.news-leader.com/story/sports/college/msu/2016/03/02/valley-insider-wichita-state-looks-finish-deal-arch-madness/81110102/

In fact - Bradley beat Wichita State in the 2006 MVC Tournament and their record since that game in MVC Tourney play is a NOT-SO-DOMINATING 11-9 - basically only one game over .500!
UNI's record since 2006 is 12-6!
