Tuesday might be the most important day the league has had in non-conference. A winning record would be a big win.

I'm picking far too many away teams.

3-2 for Tuesday would be great, but difficult. For the week 12-7 might be possible but I would settle for 11-8. 13-6 would be a rocket launch with 9-10 a severe disappointment.

If Connor Hickman is a no-go I would not pick a Bradley win @ Akron.

Need UNI to beat Richmond. Let's go 2-0 vs. MTSU as well.

Indiana State is a juggernaut right now. Given how mediocre Michigan State looks, they could really give them a game.

Did anybody watch the SIU debacle and the ridiculous lengths the officials went to in a desperate attempt to make SIU lose? I have never seen so many ridiculous calls, replays, eliminating baskets and other nonsense to try to make sure a team did not win. I can't believe that Mullins was able to control himself. Even the announcers were baffled.

That was the worst technical foul I’ve ever seen in my life. I’ll leave it at that. Complete crap.

Yeah, it turned full ref show in the last 90 seconds. Brutally bad.
