ok folks the mvc has finished 7th overall in the conferences in last few years. whenever a power in the league goes down, there's always another to replace them. they don't have a single power team..but a very good conference. not an acc or big east..they'll hold their own.

THE VALLEY!!! That's what happened to Wichita State! In my oppinion, that's why our conference should be better respected. Don't get discouraged by losses within us... we are tough to beat. Especially at someone else's house. You gotta win at home though.

Wichita State is just as tough as they were before conference time. If they don't start wining from here on out though... their only shot to get invited to the dance will be wining the MVC Championship. And even then, if they only have 17-18 wins... they might not.

If UNI wins 2 this week they should get into the top 25 next week. I'm a little disappointed with Wichita State this season. I think the Valley is tough but what happended to there powerful preseason start?

it'll at least get some votes in the polls. but as long as it keeps winning... The key all all MVC teams to get to top 25 now is to win on the road.

For example, if Shockers can win the next two road games (Missouri St. and Indiana St.)..

Will Northern Iowa jump into the Top 25 on Monday? They had kind of a weak showing out of conference but a 4-0 start, even if three are at home, definitely helps.

I think all the teams in MVC now knows how to beat the RPI system - scheduling beatable and quality teams is the key.

Entering Thursday games. Thoughts??

1) Missouri St.
2) So. Illinois
3) No. Iowa
4) Wichita St.
5) Creighton

I think Drake will give Salukis tough game tonight, but will fall short.

it's hard to predict which teams will go at this point. But one thing is certain: MVC is becoming a power conference... It was once regarded as one of the top conferences from the 1940s through the 1970s. The old days are back, baby!
