What a treat we have Saturday

Only seed set in stone is Evansville at 10 and Valpo and Ondiana St on a collision course. Anything can happen and no one better assume they are safe.

Loyola and Drake tied for 1st and neither may be 1 seed

Missouri St can the 1 seed to maybe the 5th seed

UNI/SIU/ISUr/Bradley all tied at 9-8 with very tough games this Saturday. Take your blood pressure pills because how that shakes out I just cant call it now. Someone out of these 4 have to play Evansville on Thursday Night. Good luck

Lets take guesses at who will be in the play in game........

I.... have no idea.

I do think Loyola will get the 1 seed though. Can't see them losing at home with a chance to get at least a share of a title in front of a sold out crowd on national TV... I will say Loyola by 8-10.

This is the only response worth giving. We don't know. Bradley is good. I can see them winning. I also could see Loyola playing their best game of the season. I just know that I'm rooting for the Bears and the Braves.

Beating any team on the road on Senior day is a tall order. BU will have to play really well if they are going to beat Custer and Townes on Senior day.

Most games, I agree. I feel pretty confident Loyola will win this one though. I would put a friendly wager out there and bet you a drink at arch madness if you'd take it.

I'm not really a betting man, but that's one that I could take you up on. I'll be honest, though, I was able to be at Arch Madness Thursday through Sunday last year, but there's no way I can get off work this year. I'll only be headed to St. Louis if the Bears make it to Saturday (which I sure hope they will!) this time around.

So this is what I'll take you up on: a friendly wager for a drink at Arch Madness, and I wager that Bradley beats Loyola (straight up, no spread or anything) - but with the caveat that I won't be around to fulfill that wager (regardless of which direction it goes) if the Bears don't make it to Saturday without shame or feeling like I backed out on you.

Deal?
