    SOS help tonight

    It was good to see Bucknell knock off Xavier at Xavier tonight. Xavier was 8-3 (now 8-4), with losses to Alabama in the Paradise Jam, and at Creighton and Cincinnati.

    Also, Iowa won. Washington is up on LSU right now in the first half for those with Fox Sports. Pepperdine lost to UConn. And SIU won.
    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. Fire goes before Him, and consumes his foes on every side; His lightning lights up the world; the earth sees and trembles; the mountains melt like wax before the Lord of all the earth. The heavens proclaim His righteousness and all peoples will see His glory.

    Washington is up by 14 on LSU at half. Come on Huskies!

      Would a Washington win reduce LSU, thereby reducing WSU, thereby eventually reducing the whole MVC?

      I don't know how it works? Does the 'bump' we get from a 'better' loss outweigh the hit to a conference member?

        See, this is why I think its important just to win our games and not fret about all these other scores. If I have to think this deep about something then I'm just borrowing way too much worry.

        Like the Bradley/ISU or Iowa/Drake games... I shouldn't have to sit there and worry, "Who better helps us? If this happens does it mean X. Or wait, if this happens does it mean Y?" (and please, no one explain to me which I should have cheered for -- I dont care.) It takes a lot of the fun out of just watching the games and enjoying them, IMO.

        The real season starts next week. I think 12 wins makes us a lock. Go Panthers!

          Yes, it hurt Wichita a little bit, but not much. Last night bolstered our RPI to 80, and Bucknell is on the verge of cracking the top 100, so that will help UNI even more when that takes place. If UNI were to have won last night against a low D1 team, it would have hurt the RPI. However, since UNI didn't play a D1 team, it didn't factor into the equation, and thus gives us the win on the resume (even though not in the RPI formula), and doesn't hurt our RPI numbers. Plus, the fans that Wartburg brought helped the bottom line.

            RPI sure has made the pre-conference schedule a little more interesting. IMO, the concentration needs to be on the MVC schedule. If the Panthers can be strong at home and steal a couple on the road, I think their resume will speak for itself this season. Any wins against "good RPI" teams will just bolster the UNI side of the argument at selection time, if the Panthers are truly on the bubble at that time.
