Re: Drake-WSU

I never saw this coming---eerily similar to what UNI did last year, albeit a little bit further into the conference season. The Dogs believe...

Re: Drake-WSU

Drake has already proven that they don't have to be a good team to beat us. It will be tough for us to win those games again this year, unfortunately.

Re: Drake-WSU

I hate both of them, so might as well root for the team that will give the better exposure to the conference and thus UNI. I disagree that WSU losing (or UNI running away with the title) somehow helps UNI's chances of an at-large, (unless UNI goes the rest of the way with 1 or maybe 2 more losses). More mediocrity in the league will undermine anything that UNI does in the conference season...parity in the conference = weakness to the commitee. If Drake beats WSU it makes our loss the other night look worse and a weak WSU at this point might all but assure the league of the automatic qualifier and nothing else come selection Sunday. *Unless UNI can go the rest of the way with 1 or maybe 2 more losses, but I hate removing pretty much all of our margin for error.

Re: Drake-WSU

WSU blew their entire load the other night. This team today doesn't even resemble the team on Tuesday night. Hope UNI doesn't have a similar hang over tomorrow.

OT: I hope Iowa State loses by 1,000+

I don't care if it hurts us or not, Go Kansas

Re: Drake-WSU

The only way the Valley gets two bids is if we get an at-large because someone else won in STL. With that in mind, the more space we open up in league play the better, hence, go Bulldogs.

If WSU wins the rest of their games except to UNI and wins two in the MVC tourney they would be 27-5. Really think that wouldn't get them in? Or maybe your saying you don't see them possibly doing that and hence only UNI has at-large chance.

Re: Drake-WSU

After this performance by Wichita today, you are probably correct. UNI could have beaten this team by double digits easy the other night.

Re: Drake-WSU

This is NOT the team that we played on tuesday night...

Re: Drake-WSU

I think I hate WSU even more for forgetting to show up at DRAKE. Really going to be pissed if we yet again fail to beat Drake in the McLeod Center

Both teams are trying to give this one away. Drake clinging to a 6 pt lead.

Re: Drake-WSU

Our lead is extended, and I am happy about it.

You are right. With a win tomorrow, our loss against wichita is basically negated.

A time honored tradition at DU stretching back a generation. Drake lost 8 games this season after leading in the second half. Last five games: end of always.
