If a player fouls and it’s called, fine. Those are the breaks. But, that last one against him was an absolute joke. In November and December, they would’ve called that a flop. In a normal game they wouldn’t have called anything.

Yeah same with UNI. Stick a fork in them for losing on the road. Jacobson is a clown. Just a joke; rides his starters too long. 2 straight losses on the road. Awful.

And this team? In a tougher valley? With less experience than the last 2 years? They’ve DEFINITELY performed worse than last year!!!!! No young talent on this team performing well or worth being excited about; And no signs of growth from this team since November... AND lets not forget the cupboards EMPTY next year. I mean what’s the point? And lets not forget how they responded horribly to their last loss. Only 4 straight wins? Including against a UNI team reviving votes.

Looking elsewhere around the league... Bradley (a team with no notable talent, veteran or otherwise) needed overtime to beat MSU in Peoria!!! What an embarrassment for Bradley. Might as well call it for them too. Cuz they’ve got as many losses as us. And I mean they’ve just barely squeaked out wins since Childs got back.

SIU scores 38 at Bradley... them blew their perfect home record against Bradley by 2 points. Stick a fork in em.

In fact! Back to the Braves (the team you might actually be a fan of based on when you started posting) lost in the first round of the NCAA tourney last year... the first valley team to do that in a decade!!

Pack up the Valley. We’ll never win a tourney game again.

Okay I’m done. Lets bounce back; we’ve known since the start of the year our last 5 games would be a tough stretch.

this crew did what I dislike the most....they were horrendously inconsistent........curious that we chartered but didnt get there for a shoot around?

Valpo making it rain all over Bradley...showing, once again, how difficult it is to win on the road in the Valley. And with SIU playing at UNI tomorrow, we should hopefully be in sole possession of 2nd place by tomorrow afternoon.

If UNI beats SIU tomorrow, then a win on Tuesday at home against Drake would basically clinch the 2 seed. If SIU were to win tomorrow, then we’re back in a tie for first. But, you know, the sky is falling.

Clearly, Bradley will never go back to the tournament

Sister, how are yall feeling about the Salukis down in Carbondale? Mullins still the alpha and omega?

I know people don't like how Porter works the refs so much (and I'll agree he does his fine share of complaining), but I think Dana Ford is so much worse. I'll hear Porter yell at our players if he knows they did something wrong, which on TV can sometimes look like he's yelling at the refs. But Dana argued every call. At one point a MO State player picked up his dribble and was stuck held it for a couple seconds and then lowered his shoulder and shoved our guy away to create space. They called a charge, and Dana immediately started yelling that it should've been a foul on us for being in the vertical space. I made comment of how could you argue it wasn't a charge and the Missouri State fans around me agreed that it was an obvious charge.
