Oooo yeah.....looks like I still have a shot at the top of just picking the MVC games. Old School MVC is within my sight with this final showdown week of picks...love it!

Going to give this a day to think about before making the MVC week #9 picks. What a crazy year across the Valley, and this is shaping up to be an absolutely wild free for all at Arch Madness. Hold on to your hats MVC fans because the Arch may be the biggest surprise of the whole season.

KEEP IT ROCKIN' VALLEY!

[Old School MVC]

It looks as though ptownbraves will sit on his full season title without picking a MVC game, but the MVC conference season title is up for grabs. There are about 5 of us who can win that (I don't count MSUDuo since they have only picked 10 games). I will not play prevent offense, like our Birds do with a lead, and wait until the last second to see what everyone does and try to figure out how to win. I will be aggressive and put my pick out there for those in contention to see and have them try to overthink how to beat me. There are a LOT of games that could go either way this week. This will be a fun last week of regular season and an exciting Arch Madness!! Here it goes.
