    Missouri Valley Conference Standings through 2/21/08

    Sorry, I'm a day late here ... not much really changed, other than BU acquiring a TON of tiebreaker points with the win at Drake.

    Why we can win the conference tournament

    Here's a new observation I came across this morning. If Bradley can beat SIU next week, it will be the first time in Jim Les' career and first time since the 2000-01 season that Bradley will have beaten every MVC team in the regular season. It makes watching film a lot easier when you can cue...

    Missouri Valley Conference Standings - 2/19/08 with tiebreakers

    After the huge Bradley win tonight, we've all but locked up staying out of Thursday now! Now if we can win our next two games, we WILL finish 3rd in the Valley. Sure that's a tall order, but after tonight, anything is possible!

    Missouri Valley Conference Standings - 2/13/08 with tiebreakers

    Wow, what a crazy night in the Valley! All sorts of things are changing in the standings. BU could have a chance at a total stangehold on 4th in the Valley ... instead we're battling to stay out of 7th. LOTS of basketball left to play and I'd be stunned if a bunch of things aren't determined...

    Missouri Valley Conference Standings - 2/12/08 with tiebreakers

    Though some are concerned, I don't think BU will have to worry about the play-in game. But, 6th is now a definite possibility...

    Remaining MVC Schedule (Predictions / Key Games)

    Upon analyzing the final three weeks of the conference season (5 games per school), both Creighton and Southern Illinois have the most control over what seeding they will have in the conference tournament. The Bluejays sit perched, pardon the pun, on top of the congested heap of teams from 3rd...

    Missouri Valley Conference Standings 2/9/08 with Tiebreakers

    This assumes a Missouri State victory (up 18 with 8 to play) ... Bradley has 4 more games against the teams ahead of them ... 3rd place is very possible with victories over Creighton/SIU.

    "Rivalry Week"

    I find it kind of humorous that ESPN has so many good rivalries on this week (UNC/Duke, the marquee) ... yet one of the best and most important rivalry games today is BU/ISU. And honestly, you can't really buy the argument that "nobody expected this to be a good game," like past seasons. Both...

    Missouri Valley Conference Standings with Tiebreakers - 2/6/08

    Bradley moves into a tie for third place with a win tonight over Missouri State. Overall, Bradley would have the fourth seed in the MVC tournament if the season ended tonight. See the spreadsheet for details!

    10 Valley Games Remain

    I think BradleyBrave's comments about 7-3, 3-7 and now ten more to go (plus the Bracketbuster) are worthy of expanding this to a new thread. Here is the remaining conference schedule: Sat., 1/26 @ Wichita State Wed., 1/30 vs. Indiana State Sat., 2/2 @ Evansville Wed., 2/6 vs. Missouri State...

    NCAA Tournament Automatic Bids

    I know the NCAA rewards one NCAA bid to every conference tournament champion (one regular season champ - Ivy League), but I've never quite seen as compelling of an argument to not allow anyone from a conference to be in thournament. The SWAC has every team with an RPI of 240 or higher. Outside...

    Marcus Pollard

    Former Bradley basketball stud turned NFL-pro Marcus Pollard was on the losing side of a 42-20 snow bowl beatdown of Green Bay over Seattle. I have lots of respect for the guy and have even had him on fantasy football teams ... but wow, he really had a poor game for Seattle on Saturday. It's...

    Wichita State @ Bradley - 7:05 p.m. Saturday

    Da Coach is slacking! j/k ... Where's the sticky? :-D I'll do what I can to help ... Wichita State is 7-6 overall, 0-2 in conference. The Shockers have lost four of their last six games, three of those games being at home. They are coached by Gregg Marshall, who is in his first season in...

    Passing / Offensive Sets

    Here's a strange observation that I don't believe has been discussed much. I brought it up in the chat room this evening. What has happened to our passing? The game that sticks out for me was last year's game against Wright State. We massacred them because of amazing passing, in and out, and...
