Re: New ESPN Power Rankings
I think Lunardi has lost some love for the Valley recently, because we're the only team in his bracket as well . . . earlier there were two. -
Re: New ESPN Power Rankings
Lunardi is actually MoValley John from Valleytalk. Creighton, SIU, and Bradley are down so the Valley sucks!Illinois State Fan at a St. Louis White Castle 3:45AM Saturday March 6th:
"White Castle?" "more like Black Castle..."

Re: New ESPN Power Rankings
interesting if lunardi doesn't have us ranked yet as he had said something last week in his chat about seeing us play 3 times and we were pretty solidComment

Re: New ESPN Power Rankings
UNI, Wichita, and Illinois State need to start separating themselves from the pack. If those 3 teams can finish 1-3 with records of 12-5 or better, the Valley will finish with 3 legitimate chances at at-large bids.The Lord reigns, let the earth be glad; let the distant shores rejoice, clouds and thick darkness surround Him; righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne.

Re: New ESPN Power Rankings
I disagree about Illinois State. I think the three teams need to be UNI, Wichita, and MSU.Originally posted by Panthers to the Bone View Post
MSU has a decent non-non resume, and they would be at large candidates with a really good conference season. Illinois state did nothing in the non-conf, as usual, and even if they have a stellar MVC season, I don't see them getting an at large spot.UNI FIGHT

Re: New ESPN Power Rankings
Bradley had that big win over (then) #20 Illinois and squandered it, Missouri State is now squandering their hot start (lost 3 of last 4). Unless Mizzou State picks it up it's only going to be UNI and Wichita State vying for NCAA bids.GO PANTHERS!Comment

Re: New ESPN Power Rankings
The reason I had Illinois State in over Missouri State, is that I think the inexperience of MSU will cause them to slide a little down the stretch, where ILSU is less likely to do so (IMO). MSU probably makes a stronger case than ILSU, but I just don't see them finishing with only 2 more losses.The Lord reigns, let the earth be glad; let the distant shores rejoice, clouds and thick darkness surround Him; righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne.
