The "Southern Illinois" maroon jerseys are in my top-4 favorite MVC jerseys, trailing only the ISUb powder blues, Bradley retro reds, & Drake retro blues.
Impressed with CBSSN's effort and production value. Quite a few shots of campus and Cedar Falls in -10 temps, quite a few shots of the fans.

BU is on an eight-game winning streak with an average margin of of 20ppg (even with a one-point win at SIU) and are scoring 80ppg during that stretch.
Will be interesting to see if they're closer to the 6-0 version that beat Utah State or the version that dropped its first two league games, then crapped the bed without Hickman.
ISU has two road games (@Murray, @UIC) before they host Bradley, but I think they'll win both even if they have a tough time at Murray.
ISU, aside from the Drake game, has been hammering some of the same teams Bradley has been hammering. ISU hit 14 3s during the game played in Peoria, which they're doing to just about everyone they play - they're shooting 41% as a team. Should be a fun one in Terre Haute.
