Would be sweet to end up with a 2 game buffer from 3rd place if home teams sweep. (I pray we can keep a single thread on topic and not use it to bash the team/conf/coach/players/each other)

I could live with 1 home team (BU) losing :dance:

Bashing bradley is encouraged!

:text-+1: Home teams in every game would be ideal. Except the BU/SIU game doesn't really matter and I would prefer BU to finish 10th. I think (hope) SIU comes out with a chip on their shoulder after blowing it at home a few weeks ago.

I just want to see some separation so that 7-10 isn't an option come Arch time.

Just win baby.

Interesting that outside of our game - the bottom four are hosting the next four. I still subscribe to the Stallings thoughts on conference play involving other teams - you always want the home team to win - let our team be the only one with road wins.

Currently Thursday Play-in odds are about 6%

Current odds of the #1 seed are only 10%.

LETS SEE WHAT HAPPENS WITH BOTH OF THOSE WITH A W on SATURDAY NIGHT !

That still doesn't make me feel great Mel. There was only .1% chance Valpo was going to beat us in the league opener and we all know how that turned out.

Just keep winning.

5 close to toss up games. I can see either team winning any of them. That will be the way it is in STL. Lets get that top seed or at least a #2 and play a team on short rest!

For what it's worth ISU's NET ranking is 177 now (not 193) after our win at Drake.

BU Loses!!!
So do the trees and Alpo

I don't see how BU avoids Thursday now. 4 loses at home seems impossible to overcome. BU fans had some hope. Good road W for Drake.
