Might be misinterpreting others but I'm not betting on that. I'm just discussing the hypothetical that others are afraid of, where Drake runs the table in the regular season, loses on Sunday in St Louis, and gets left out. *If* that were to occur, I think they're still a lock to get in.

Overall, math says they're about 1 in 6 to run the table in the regular season, and 43% to finish 17-3 or better. I think i would personally would say theyre about 25% to go 18-2, 60% to finish with 17 wins or better. we've seen the offense get stagnant and we've seen some going through the motions on the road. they've handled athleticism better recently but it still can be a concern.


Drake's hope of running the table will hit a major roadblock on 2/26 at the Ford Center in downtown Evansville, Indiana. it will be a sellout of 10,000, with the team's game motto of "Light em up."

Drake already lost to Murray State AT HOME. Bulldogs are well coached and playing well, but based on what I have seen in the Valley this year, any team can beat any other team.

This right here. The very reason Arch Madness will be up for grabs!

UIC just finished the worst half of basketball I've seen since I became a fan in the 80's!

K-State up 11 on the Jayhawks. I’m sniffing a Q1.

Vanderbilt also took down Texas.

Nagy getting this mess turned around to the point where SIU is 7-7 in conference is a hell of a coaching job

That’s a good thing because Bradley is showing no signs of getting back to the top 75.

Drake beats Indiana State in OT, not sure what happened to Drake but they almost got burned at home despite controlling most of the game.
Northern Iowa comes back and beats Illinois State

But, just think of how much better they'd be with Chris Lowery :Cheers:
