2 MVC games Sunday, January 20

UNI hammering Drake - up 15 at half

Drake shooting poorly - just 9-30, UNI shooting 52%


IU wins at Northwestern but it wasn't easy - after losing a big lead - the last 7 minutes were mostly just a 5 to 7 pt lead than Indiana hung on to

We'll see if Phelps survives this year or not. I would think he will be on the hot seat at Drake if they don't improve drastically before the end of the year.
 
UNI pouring it on and Drake looks awful. UNI has now pulled out to a 59-31 lead after 14 straight points.

We beat Drake at home fairly easily so UNI clobbering them at UNI is not a surprise as they hammered us also up there, SIU and ISU will be interesting and from what I have heard lately Diamond Taylor might return to action.

I am getting a bit suspicious. Why don't you post the PENNY's picks before the games are finished, like everyone else has to do? I think he might be....nevermind. 8)

THE PENNY's picks:

Can't get any worse than last week when I flipped out..... 1-4 :mad:

BU ------ GO BU, back above .500 with WE on the floor
WSU ---- Home Team has to be worth something
ISUB ---- Defend Colt, Colt, Colt
UNI ----- UNI needs to play like they did vs BU
ISUR ---- 50-50, Deadbirds can't lose them all, can they?
 
safe to say that ISU's likely to get their first Valley win tonight
they have a 23 pt lead late in the 1st quarter - I suppose they could blow it but I doubt they will
 
UNI can look dominating at times - and despite their record (10-9 overall and 3-4 in MVC) - all their losses are to pretty good teams..
Louisville, Stanford, Memphis, Iowa, UNLV, Wichita State, Indiana State, Evansville, Creighton.
They will probably, in the end, battle Indiana State & Evansville for 3-5th

not a Valley game but saw that Loyola needed overtime to squeak by Chicago State ...
how weird is this - Loyola won 10 of their first 13 games - and now they can't beat anyone -
Cully Payne 1 basket, 1-5, 3 asst/6 TO in almost 40 min
 
The same phenomenon is happening to UIC- Chicago newspapers were posting articles about how great a turnaround Howard Moore had made this year when UIC jumped out to a 9-1 start. But now they have lost 7 of their last 9 with wins over only Youngstown State and Loyola.

And how far has Rob Jeter and Wisconsin-Milwaukee fallen? Just a little more than a year ago he was being mentioned for some pretty good head coaching jobs, including Bradley. But this year they are in last place and are the worst team in the Horizon League with a 5-14 record (the only Horizon League team with a losing record) and a 300+ RPI. And 2 of their 5 wins are over non-Division I schools (Mary & Dominican). Maybe his window of opportunity has passed?
 
Jeter lived off Bruce Pearl's successful recruiting - reminds me of how successful Lowery was with other guys' players-
once Pearl's players started to leave - Jeter never made the NCAA again

Right about UNI. And the sad thing is all they had to do was win three of them and they would be on the fringe of the at-large discussion right now. That said, they will be very dangerous in the Valley tournament.
