An interesting game for the Ramblers. We can claim 6th place by winning at Drake on Wednesday. If Drake wins, then Wednesday's game will be winner take all for 6th. If MSU wins, then we would still have a chance even if we lose Wednesday.

I would give some consideration to starting Crisman and telling him that if he shuts down Ricks, Jr. he can get his team a bye in St. Louis.

60-35 now. I know MSU has had their problems, but Drake is looking pretty formidable.

Going to be a good one on Wednesday.

It may come down to that final Saturday. Drake has a much tougher finale than we do (@SIU) especially after seeing how awful Missouri St looked today.

It's a final-- 78-43. Drake was 13 of 21 on threes, and limited MSU to 28% field goal shooting. Ricks had 20 points and six threes. Sed o we're now tied with Drake at 6-10.

On the plus side for us, MSU is our final game at home, and today was Drake's Senior Day rather than Wednesday.

I updated my original post to reflect this, but it actually all comes down to Wednesday.

We're currently tied with Drake, so whoever wins will be 1 game up with 1 to play, but neither team can overtake the other due to the tiebreakers.

If we win, we will have swept the season series to earn the tiebreak.

If Drake wins, it will be a split series, and they own the non-conference strength of schedule tiebreak.

As JCT said yesterday, BEAT DRAKE.
