It's a bit concerning that Loyola will have no more quad 1 games the rest of the year. It leaves little room for error in the rest of the valley schedule. |

For whatever this is worth to anyone, someone on the CBS halftime show (I believe it was Rothstein) said that Davidson and Loyola have kept in communication about the possibility of making up their game. He acknowledged it would be difficult, but if the motivation is there on both sides, it seems like this is a card that could be played down the road. |

The way UNI is playing, they could sneak into the top 75 making @UNI a Q1 opportunity. They are now 5-1 in conference play with wins in the bank @MoSt and @SIU. Our two February matchups with them will likely decide the conference. |

The A10 seems to have a break Feb 13-18, but we have games Sunday-Wednesday-Saturday that week. If the conference could move the Wednesday Valpo game (after all, a Davidson-LU game would benefit the MVC), Davidson should be very available. But with our two postponed MVC games being worked back into the schedule, there's really no place to insert Valpo. I would do almost anything to play Davidson at this point, but it would probably require a three-games-in-five-days fix which would really put our conference season at risk. Despite our depth, we've already seen signs of possible exhaustion. |

Somehow last night's win @Evansville moved us up 4 spots to #18 in the NET. |

Guess so, but Evansville is 311 in the NET...didn't think there was anything you could do against #311 that would move you up. |

It's more about what you do (win by 29) compared to what's expected (win by 12). |

Another fun tool to play around with is Bart Tovrik's Teamcast feature. For example, if the team wins out through the regular season, and the conference tournament, it projects the second 6 seed. Another, lose at MSU, lose at UNI, lose to MSU in the tournament championship game, second 9 seed. Can look at prior years too. Such as if last year welost to SIU in the first round of the Valley Tournament, his model predicts we'd have still be a last 4 in as an 11 seed. And for 2018we're out if we lose the conference title game. Have fun! |

We know for sure the 2018 team would've been out if they lost the title game because they were ranked lower than the last 4 in at large teams on the seed list. If anyone wants a good laugh, look at all the teams the selection committee thought were better in 2018. https://www.cbssports.com/college-baske ... ding-1-68/ |
