With 2:50 remaining and being 24 points down. It looks like #3 seeded Indiana State will be the third "upset" today. Absolutely crazy. We are the best seed to make it out of the first game.
I predict a Bradley vs Missouri State championship game.Comment

Final score- Missouri State 78 Indiana State 51
The only blowout of any of the MVC Tournament games, so far. MSU was lead by their trio of big guys (Gaige Prim 17, Lamont West 14, Tulio Da Silva 14) and their All MVC guard Keandre Cook (13). MSU shot 50% for the game compared to 33.9% for INSU, and MSU outrebounded INSU 45-26.
The obvious advantage of a blowout is that Missouri State's players got a lot of rest. No player played more than 27 minutes in the game.
#6 seed MSU will play #7 seed Valparaiso, who upset #2 seed Loyola Friday.Comment

Just getting caught up here getting back from St. Louis. Indiana State just looked bad. Not sure what happened, but Missouri State took advantage. There probably should have been a few tech's called on Missouri State for taunting, but probably wouldn't have helped Indiana State much. I wonder if the refs had a talking to after this game regarding the taunting that led to the Childs and Penn tech's on Saturday.Comment

Yeah, I thought Indiana State looked worse than I've seen them this season. But to me, it appeared to have a lot to do with Indiana State's lack of inside presence, they play 3 guards and 2 freshmen forwards, nobody over 6'7", and Missouri State's abundance of big forwards who can score and rebound. When the Indiana State guards aren't hitting threes, they can be in trouble, and they were just 6 of 25 from three. Indiana State also got outrebounded 45-26, and outscored on Points in the Paint 40-22.-
