New polls- Creighton rises, Wichita State falls

and although they weren't getting votes - Indiana State's RPI drops only to 52...so there'll still be some thinking they're in the hunt..

There about 5 teams with a better RPI that I think that Indy St. is more deserving to get an At-Large bid, according to SOS & quality wins (vs. RPI top 50/100)

#32 Middle Tennessee
#36 Southern Miss
#37 BYU
#47 UMass
#48 Illinois

So as much as thought that the Drake loss about burst their bubble, going on a strong run to end the Valley season could keep them in the running, especially with 2 total wins vs. Creighton and/or Wichita St.

If season ended today though, I would have to say they are NIT bound.
 
well - now it's interesting to flash back...

hardly anyone doubted that Creighton & Wichita were the cream of the Valley...

but some quite accurately predicted that Creighton wouldn't go as far as Wichita...while the rest of the Valley were pretty medicre - even tho several predicted Indiana State & UNI - and maybe ISU (early on) were going to get at large bids.

I think Creighton struggles next year with quality opponents and Big East caliber recruits facing them every night.
Sure Doug McD is good - but remember how he sometimes played when he faced big time competition?
His draft stock could actually drop unless he becomes a more prolific 3-pt shooter - but that's maybe the plan - to play him on the wing more...
