Atop The Mountain

It's a good day to be a redbird fan, first place all alone. It may only last a few days, or may last a few years... regardless comma soak it in and enjoy the ride. We're number one! We are number one! That's about all the gloating I can handle for one day.

Flagship!

Best part about the way the schedule has worked out is that we've already played #2 and #3 once... and #3 in their barn.

Nothing's a given in the Valley though. I'm thinking we're 15-3ish when the season wraps up.

Loss at WSU
Loss at MSU
Another Redbird type loss

We have the horses to win St. Louis though, which is the only way anyone's getting into the Dance.

I will second that. Pleasantly surprised that we are even in the top 5 at this point. Future is looking pretty good too. As long as we stop having players transfer...

This is absolute hogwash. Winning out until Sunday would put ISUred in.

How many Top 50 wins does Illinois State have?

18-0 would certainly get them in. Lots of games to be played.
