Drake enters Top 25

[Da Coach]

Drake (16-0) moved into the Top 25 ranking for the first time since 2008. Both the AP writers poll and the USA coaches poll have Drake at #25 this week.

And Loyola is knocking at the door as well . . . third in line in "Others receiving votes." How long has it been since the Valley had two in a regular season Top 25?

Still, Joe Lunardi has us as a one-bid league in his Bracketology.

I would venture to say when CU and Wichita were both members of the MVC?

Just to be clear Linardi has Drake in as an 8 seed and Loyola in as a 10 seed.

He does as of today. Joe has obviously been influenced by this thread.

Hopefully both will keep it going until next weekend when Loyola goes to Drake for a 11:00 ESPN 2 game on the 13th and a 5:00 ESPN U game on the 14th. This weekend Loyola hosts Evansville and Drake goes to Valpo. Drake then hosts UNI on Wednesday.
