Figured we could have a thread about future opponents. Remember how I AM blew out Iowa State? Well last night they post 69-55 to D2 Concordia St Paul. And it looked like Concordia dominated the game. |

Iowa State plays Boise St. tomorrow. Boise looks pretty darn good so far. |

Indiana State and Ohio went to four overtimes. Indiana State ball with five seconds left and trailing 96-94, Brenton Scott takes a three to try for the win, and misses. Tough, tough loss, but ISUb looks like they'll be maybe tougher than thought in conference. |

Did anybody notice that two days after they played us, Samford went to Valpo and those two teams ended with the same score as in our game, 88-67? I think Valpo is going to be a top four team in the league, and if things break right for them, top two. |

You know what has kinda become a big win? Opening night against Wright State. After losing their first three games of the year to peer-level teams, the Raiders have gone on to win 10 of their last 12 games against D1 competition, including their last five straight. They're 4-0 in the HL, with the league's best RPI at 99. From an RPI standpoint, they're now our second best win after Florida. |

It wasn't long ago I was checking on nonconference opponents, and they had less than 10 D1 wins combined! |

We should be comfortably in the top 100 RPI after this one. Long way home though. |
