+x+x+xAs of right now, our "Byes" (Evansville and Illinois State) have a 5-23 record). If I wasn't so lazy I would check the other schedules to see how that compares, but I gotta think that is hard to top. Here you go "Ghost..." ILL ST "BYES" DRAKE and BELMONT E'VILLE "BYES" DRAKE AND BRADLEY ILL CHI "BYES" MURRAY ST and UNI VALPO "BYES" MISSOURI ST and IND ST MURRAY ST "BYES" N IOWA and ILL CHI MISSOURI ST "BYES" ILL ST and VALPO NORTHER IOWA "BYES" ILL CHI and MURRAY ST DRAKE "BYES" EVANSVILLE and ILL ST BRADLEY "BYES" EVANSVILLE and IND ST SOUTHERN ILL "BYES" BELMONT and VALPO BELMONT "BYES" SOUTHERN ILL and ILL ST IND ST. "BYES" VALPO and BRADLEY Almost got it. Valpo's byes are Missouri St. and SIU, Indiana St.'s byes are Belmont and Bradley, and Belmont's byes are SIU and Indiana St. Thanks B_B... Correction made, if yours are correct. Hmmmm, no drugs or alcohol were used in prep of my original post.

Well I was hoping for 5-2, but was pretty scared about these past 2 road games. We all know this Southern game is going to be a war. Have to somehow push tempo and not let Dmask beat us. He’s a rough matchup for us. I feel good about Belmont, still leaving 2 tough road games at Bradley and the Panthers. Let’s go dogs.

The right 4-1 probably makes us champs.

The right 4-1 probably makes us champs. There is a good chance that final tournament cedings could be influenced by NCAA NET tiebreakers. If so, we currently have a NET ranking above Indiana State, Southern Illinois, and Belmont but a little below Bradley. Of course if we beat Bradley in Peoria NET rankings wouldn't matter

Now, who is with the six of us that said Drake would win the final seven games of the year to take the MVC CHAMPIONSHIP REGULAR SEASON?
Dogs have climbed to 60th in the NET. Bradley 58th.
It's so F'ing stupid. It appears a team gets a higher rating if they win a game by 10, or more. That's part of the formula? So pathetic!!
Probably doesn't matter, but this will be a Q1 game. Would be great to be able to have a ring and banner ceremony to start off the 23-24 season.
Come on 'DOGS, finish with four more blow out victories!!!!!!

I guess the message from the NCAA (aka the NET) is don't play your bench ever when you have big leads just keep running up the score. :hehe:

I was one, but I now vacillate on the Bradley game between winning by ten or more and squeaking out an overtime win. Dogs can do this!

I’ll be honest I was hoping for 5-2 with the tough schedule we had. This has been a helluva run by the dogs but also by Bradley and ISU Blue who gave one away last night. So pumped for this matchup on Sunday.

I voted for 8-1 and I'd be very happy to be proven wrong!
Pumped for sunday's matchup. I'm really debating about driving down for the game.
