2018 Elite Eight - (11) Loyola vs (9) Kansas State

by **MissouriValleyUnite** » March 22nd, 2018, 11:30 pm

The wildest Valley season ever has rippled into the wildest March ever. The parallel universe divined to us has turned Sister Jean into an overnight American icon. An 11 battles a 9 for the first time in NCAA history. The Fighting Chris Lowery's have overcome the Maryland Baltimore County Retrievers and Kentucky to play for the Final Four. Meanwhile, the Sister Jean machine has dispatched 4 top 25 teams - 3 in a row - to play for the Final Four.

Sister Jean!
Chris Lowery!
For the FInal Four!!!

Kansas St. has Bruce Weber. He was a really good SIU coach. But because you threw out Chris Lowery’s name, I am compelled to vote against him. Go Loyola!!

This matchup feels like looking into a mirror. Two scrappy defensive teams. This will be a battle and a grind. Limit turnovers and take smart shots. Go Ramblers!

Go get 'em Ramblers! You're one step away from some pretty rarified air in college hoops. Keep repping the Valley and raise the MVC banner to an even higher air.

ROCK IT LUC and the MVC! :Cheers:

UMBC almost beat KSU so I'm not real worried about tonight. Loyola is going to the Final four. Book it.

No gimmes in the tournament. Loyola better come to play and I believe they will. A lot will depend on whether Wade can go for Kansas State. Go Ramblers!
