Kind of surprised the Ramblers are a 3 point favorite in Carbondale. By my reckoning that would make us about a 7 point favorite on a neutral court; i.e., at Arch Madness.

The Ramblers having been pretty good ATS this year so the number might be skewed due to, perhaps, a bit heavier action coming in on the cover kings, the Ramblers. Kinda like those early season Duke games where they wind up 40 point favorites because every frat guy on Vegas vacation has to go bet on Dukie! Or like the Cubs WS odds for all those years as sentimental Cubs fans gave away their money for a piece of paper representing the dream but, nonetheless, skewing the line.

Once again, another "crucial" !! Ir IS a fact--we MUST and shall win this game using the same story--so many guns !! Whom will it be tonight ?? My guess would be Ingram and Jackson--The Seniors will come through with the usual leadership of the GENERAL --I like us to win 71-64 !!!

You know what really ticks me off --and has for years is that the "group "that chooses teams will pick mediocre ACC BIG 10 or SEC teams over us or someone like us-- say maybe a St Mary's because of Gonzaga Got to save a spot or two for the likes of Wisc or Tenn or the like !!

GO RAMBLERS--ALMOST THERE !!!~

Win the MVC tourney Brot and we can all relax in front of the TV on Selection Sunday with a beverage and get ready to celebrate.

One thing I know sure,Joe--WE are the best in Illinois !!

Teddy Greenstein from the Trib is in Carbondale to cover the game.
