UE might be coming up against it now with SIU on the road and WSU coming up soon. Marty basically playing 6 players might be starting to take some serious toll on the Aces.
Looking at the rest of the MVC schedule, I could see the Aces losing as many as 6 MVC games, and then Arch Madness games would be a nightmare stretch for a worn down UE team.
Also MSU, playing without Cam Boone most of the game today, looked pretty awful against SIU. Think the Salukis are going to have some tough going the second half of the Valley season as it's roadies against all the top half teams.
Yes, SIU is 8-0 on the road, but really who have they played? But hey, Barry Hinson has done wonders with a couple juco additions and has the Salukis playing at a good level as opposed to the past couple of seasons.
Always like Barry, and think it was a HUGE mistake for MSU to can a coach who won a TON of games while he was the Bears headman.
Anyhow, enjoying catching most of the MVC games on ESPN 3 this season.
