This illustrates pretty clearly that the top 2 or 3 are above the rest of the league right now.

The next think you know, Elgin will propose renaming to the Ohio Valley Conference.

I voted Evansville. Although they are the MVC team I know the least about. I just don't think UNI will fall this far.

So you think UNI will fall from 4th all the way to 3rd?

Both teams have major question marks, but again, I defer to UNI with their coaching. They haven't fallen below 4th or 5th in a while and when I compare them to Evansville, I just can't see the Aces finishing higher at this time.

Close call, but I voted Evansville.

I put the Aces here because I think they will go as far as the freshmen will take them. Both Sawvill and Rokas will be 1st team All Valley before they are through, but relying on freshmen is like playing Russian Roulette. They could be very good or very bad in any given game. These kids are both 6'8" and know how to play the game. They won't be pushed around. The Aces will have an inside game this year. How good it will be is yet to be determined. They could finish 4th or play on Thursday. All depends on how fast the freshmen progress, and how much better Ned Cox, Lewis Jones, Troy Taylor, and Denver Holmes have improved. Of course, Colt will be Colt, and the hope is that he will be a consistent 18 to 25 points every game. Peeler is a huge ?. Has the body of a Valley player, but reminds me of someone who just started playing basketball in his senior year of high school. 5th for now. Ask me again on Dec. 31st.
