Updated MVC Power Rankings - December 28

[isumvc1]

What we really need is for Drake, Bradley, SIU, and ISUb to stay completely dog s*** and not beat anyone other than themselves and the top 2 only losing to each other...and maybe 1 to third place who

that is pretty much a certainty, but I think SIU is better than some think, and will surprise a team or two.

It's not a certainty that it will happen that way.

There are a number of times bottom half teams have played out their ass against top 2 teams and beaten them is high enough that the terms like "Evansvilled" and "Bradleyed are real things that I've seen used multipe places multiple times

ok, let me put it this way, Indiana State and Drake will not be Evansvilling or Bradleying ANY of the top 5 MVC teams this season, bet the farm on it.

It was a tough decision, but I made a move at the top this week. I feel like the Shockers are still the favorite in the MVC, but Panthers are probably playing better at the moment.

I agree with the rankings and I'll bet anyone a dollar that Illinois State wins at least one game against WSU or UNI and loses to either Drake or Indiana State.

Just like every year there are going to be "upsets" every week, some weeks even more than others.
From what I have seen this year there probably isn't +/- 10 points between most of the Valley teams.
UNI seems to have played the most consistent in the OOC season, maybe a little more prepared for the conference to start.
There are no guarantees and that's what makes it fun and exciting.

Like I said....I think the Valley title is wide open.

I think UEs win puts WSU back on top of the POwer Rankings, UNI second and UE still in third.

We're halfway there!

Maybe but, it wouldn't be too hard to construct an arguement that WSUs performance against Drake was worse than UNIs performance against UE.

True.

Slice and dice it however you wish, but a win is better than a loss anytime. Especially in conference and on the road.

So bleach, since you are arguing/comparing which ugly girl you would rather take to the dance, which one is worse?


1. WSU's road win over Drake?
2. UNI's road loss to Evansville?
3. ISUR's home loss to ISUB?

I'll let you haggle over the uglies, and I'll take the win and hopefully at the end of the year, our wins will lead to an invite to the NCAA dance with the beautiful girl.
