MVC Games Week 9 2024-25

[DUBulldog]

Steve Prohm put on a coaching clinic.

Totally outcoached McCollum, who put his team at a disadvantage with a technical foul with the ball.

I'm real curious what the T was all about. Didn't seem like McCollum was very demonstrative on the sideline when they called it. Must have said something that really got under the bald ref's skin.

Nice win by the Birds, SIU is bootycheeks

The good news is, if SIU keeps laying down the rest of the season and losing by 30 every game. The rest of the league will get a nice NET/KenPom boost

McCollum said in his post game presser he didn't even know what it was for and got no explanation.

Drake isn't going to survive with the amount of minutes Stirtz, Abreu, and Mascari are playing. Stirtz and Mascari are top 2 in all of College Basketball in minutes

"...SIU is bootycheeks"

I don't know why (maybe it was the timing), but this is so funny to me!

Sadly, I haven't been able to watch SIU games this season. Why are we "#bootycheeks"? I thought we were suppose to be respectful this year? Is it the coaching? Lack of talent? Lack of team cohesion? Bad Luck?

Also, what are we to make of the Drake loss to Murray?

[just ducky]

I'm thinking the Murray win says more about Drake. The Bulldogs aren't deep in talent and it results in them being more predictable to defend. With the pattern established on how to keep them close Drake has now lost some of their early season advantage and this could continue as the rest of the league improves. Others have concluded that they could drop to 3rd and I am pretty much in agreement. With that said I still view them as better than the next 6 Valley teams but not by much.
