UNI would have to win a road game to get to 11, not happening

I noticed that UNI is 2-2 on a neutral court this year, but their only road win is at UE, making the Panthers 1-3 against RPI 200+ opponents on the road and 0-5 against all teams below 200 RPI. The Panthers have four roadies remaining, all against teams with RPIs of less than 200. 10-8 looks right for Jacobson this year.

Feb 18th at Drake ?

Life is tough on the road accept for WSU who as we all know is a ELITE program right now.

ISU blue has the "winnable" Rd games out of the way. So still IMO unproven.

I think the MSU win in Peoria is gonna be huge but deceiving because they were healthy.

Hardly heathly, pick was out then Marcus was playing. Now pick is gonna be back this week which will help rebounding and defense but he is not the scoring threat that Marcus was.

I predicted the Aces over Bradley. I thought the combination of Jaylon Brown and Duane Gibson would slow down Lemon. It looks like Bradley goes as Lemon goes.

Free throws were the difference. The Aces wisely figured that they should foul Xzavier Taylor when BU got in the bonus. He missed front ends in back to back trips.

The Braves can't afford to lose to ISU Red on Wednesday.

It's quite interesting that the third place team(s) are closer to tenth than second. There's a lot of room for the third and fourth place teams to emerge from the pack.
