Southern Illinois was selected as the 10th place finisher (results: viewtopic.php?f=2&t=1292)

Week 2 - Who will finish in 9th place during the 2011-12 MVC mens basketball season?

I am going to have to go with BU. New coach, new system, no post play.

Appears that this one won't even be close. I am curious to see how the middle of the conference shakes out in this poll.

Same here. I think the bottom 3 are fairly easy to pick and the top 2 are fairly easy. It's those middle 5 that I think could go anyway. (Not saying the pics will be right in the end, just the way thinks look right now)

I am not a Wichita State fan but still can't imagine why people would have voted for them for 9th place. That is just not going to happen.

Bradley it seems to be this year. Oh, and if the WSU haters have the guts to put into a post their rationale for picking them 9th and 10th, I'd love to see it, as moronic drivel is always worth a chuckle.

It's the internet guys, just let it be. They did it just to get a rise out of you, don't give them the satisfaction of acknowledging their foolishness

It was a toss-up between BU and SIU for last, SIU was picked last so just BU is left for ninth. I think they will turn things around, but not this year.

I think its going to be hard to place teams like MSU and UNI. No doubt they are going to take a hit with what they lost from last year into this year. It will be interesting to see how far they fall. I think UNI's stranglehold defense is going to be the weakest we have seen in years and MSU is going to need to have guys step up around weems otherwise they could just as easily be in the gutter too.
