Barry Hinson reveals he is one of the voters who picked his own team, SIU, FIRST PLACE

SIU loses to Buffalo 62-53
all the talk going into this season was how the MVC was gonna be good because so many teams have so many players returning...

Barry Hinson voted his team #1 because they have all five starters returning...

ISU and Bradley had nearly everyone returning....

and yet with SIU losing, the MVC is now just 11-8...and we are just now headed into some pretty tough tournaments for the MVC teams..
Last year the MVC was 17-2 in their first 19 games and the MVC won 38 of their first 50 games
