This appears to be the weakest this Conference has been in years. Creighton could be the only true legitimate NCAA team here. Southern Illinois doesn't look to be improving. I like what Wichita State has done. They have gone from horrible last season to competitive. They could really be a team to watch out for in a year. Illinois State is the sleeper. |

I will tip my hat to Northern Iowa. They are making a run NO ONE saw coming. A lot of the players on the Panthers have developed better than expected in the Conference season. UNI is a very guard-orientated team that is playing shut down defense- which it usually does under their heir of Coaching. The Panthers don't seem to be a fluke either with 3 quality road wins over Creighton, Southern Illinois, & Drake. |

Here are the Bracket Busters match ups. Friday, Feb. 20 Illinois State at Niagara Saturday, Feb. 21 George Mason at Creighton Miami (OH) at Evansville Northern Iowa at Siena Bradley at Loyola (Ill.), TBD Austin Peay at Drake, TBD Toledo at Indiana State, TBD Missouri State at Tenn.-Martin, TBD Southern Illinois at UIC, TBD Cleveland State at Wichita State, TBD These are favorable matchups for the Valley. I see no reason we shouldn't go 9-1 in this thing. |

I won't mention the WSU/Creighton Quarterfinal ![]() But I was there for the Tournament in St. Louis. Damn, that Finals was amazing. |
