Indiana State will win the MVC Tournament

[Aces1982]

All of that said, I do think Indiana State has a legit shot. If the Sycamores can find a way to beat Wichita State, they can take Missouri State down.

Did they get a by straight to Saturday's game?

Nothing like over looking a team that beat them twice.

Fair point, but there's no way the Sycamores overlook the Aces this time. ISU has to be favored.

I agree, I think 5 or 6 points, but favorites don't always win.

Aces fans while I do respect what you are saying about ISU being able to beat a team they haven't beat all season, unless your team is quite a bit superior to the other team it is VERY tough to beat a team 3 times in one season. When the teams are equal there is a better than average chance the team that lost twice will win. That is part of the reason I wasn't as disappointed we lost to Creighton on Saturday. I legitimately cannot see ISU beating WSU. To me it will be tough for anyone outside of WSU win this weekend simply because they have so much more depth.

Overall, it should be a great weekend at Scottrade! Looking forward to going for the first time since probably the mid 90s!

GO PANTHERS!!

Why is it tough? Do you have any data to support this?

Drake lost to UNI 3 times last year.
SIU lost to Drake 3 times last year.
MSU lost to WSU 3 times last year.
Evansville lost to MSU 3 times last year.

So it doesn't seem that it is all that difficult.

I think ISU will beat UE, but I disagree with the premise that it's very tough to beat a team 3 times in one season. Typically, if Team A beats Team B twice during the season, it's because Team A is better. If Team A is better, they should be favored to, and expected to win if they play again. There are always exceptions, but I think that's true in the majority of cases.

So, some ISU-B fan picked the Sycs to win it all. What does that matter?
