4 MVC games Wed., Feb. 26

Drake had their hands full the last 17:00 of the half as Evansville actually took the lead at 49-48 with 9:33 left. That was the only lead of the half for the Purple Aces though. Drake led 59-54 with 4:35 left but didn’t make a FG the rest of the game. Evansville had a number of chances to tie and or get the lead but just couldn’t get over the hump. Drake is the regular season MVC Champs.
 
Belmont clinches a buy with their 74-65 win at Missouri St. I for one am very happy that in their last year in the Valley that the Bears are last, with just 2 Valley wins

precendent from other conferences - should dictate that since Missouri State is leaving the Valley, they should be banned from participating in the Conference Tournament. Wouldn't it be a public relations nightmare if a last place team that's not even going to be here next year actually made a run and won? Other conferences have avoided that potential by banning them and we should, too.

This is not unprecedented-

If you weren't going to let them play in the tournament, should have had them leave before the season.
 
the contracts for the games were likely already signed well in advance of the season so cancelling all those games in all the sports would have been impossible
 
One thing for sure, there won't be many fans sitting in the yellow section-
