Few notes:
-We open conference with a tough one at MSU
-The conference was kind... our two home break games are against Indiana State and Evansville; if we need a crowd badly to win against those two teams something's either gone really wrong for us or really right for them
-Last game against Illinois State is a potential dogfight for one of the top two seeds

I have us at 24 - 7 ... anyone want a sip of the kool aid ... tasting real good!

24-7 or 7-24.....all that matters is the MVC Tournament.

you are so right ... but 24 - 7 leading up to the tourney would be a lot of fun and well deserved!!

I got us at 25-6.

Winning the conference regular season gets us into the NIT also.

I guess the over/under on what I would consider a successful season would be 22-8 headed into Arch Madness, and making the MVC Tournament final. Expecting an NIT appearance seems excessive since we haven't had an NCAA or NIT since 1985. But it's hard to not expect reaching that level when we have a wide open conference race and we're considered by most to be among the top 3, if not the conference favorite.
