So, I started another thread with just the MVC games ... I have compiled the composite schedule for all of our D1 opponents...19 games... one push (SIUE and Purdue play each other)... so of the 18 remaining games... how many will our opponents win?  (seems to be a fairly even split about 5-5 or 6-4 for MVC teams... , but now you have to have scouted both SELA and Centenary... I'm going to go with 9

Is ISU that good or is IU that bad?

9 wins, 3 losses and a push  (or make it 10-4 depending on how you look at it.   

wanting Belmont to be the next man up for the Valley...
...Freshman Jaylen Nowell scored 25 of his 32 points in the second half and Washington rallied from nine points down in the final five minutes to beat Belmont 86-82 in Seattle

wanting Murray State to come in...
...Byron Hawkins scored 28 points on 10-of-13 shooting, including five 3-pointers, and Murray State raced to a 118-61 win over NAIA Brescia

wanting Milwaukee to come in
...at the Black and Gold Shootout the Panthers, packed 1,495 people in to see a win over Wisc-Lacrosse 83-73 leb by Bryce Barnes with 19.  (We had 2,682 at the ARC)

wanting Nebr-Omaha to come in...
...despite Daniel Norl's 29 points, host Montana State held on in Overtime to beat Omaha 89-80

I'm making it 10-4! Especially since I predicted 10 wins. 10 of our opponents did win.

QuoteBall State almost beat Dayton on the road 77-78 today. Thats going to be a tough game in Muncie later this year.

It will indeed. Watched the last five minutes of this one, and Dayton was pretty much outplayed by BSU and bailed out by their A-10 officiating crew during the final sequence. Ball State took the lead with 3.9 seconds to go, Dayton dribbled to midcourt and called timeout with 1.6 left and for reasons unknown, the refs put an extra second back on the clock. Dayton threw the ball inbound along the sidelines, Dayton player bobbled it and dropped it out of bounds, ref inexplicably ruled it was off BSU. Reviews pretty clearly showed it never touched BSU player, refs still ruled replay inconclusive. Dayton throws inbound lob to the paint, Flyer player clears out with his off arm, catches and hits game-winner at the buzzer.

With games coming up at Northwestern and Purdue later, it's a good reminder that the old rule of "you need to be 10 points better on the road to avoid home cooking" still applies, apparently. To top it off, FTs were also 23-8 in favor of the Flyers, according to the box score.

The only real question for Sunday's games... "Which home team will win by more points?"

Sunday, November 12, 2017   Eureka   Loyola   2pm
Sunday, November 12, 2017   Chicago State   Purdue   4pm


I'm going with Purdue... Ramblers by 40, Purdue by 50

Valpo's not playing Weber State this year, are we? Or am I being brain dead and missing something?

talksalot

Damn fat fingers...

The game I missed was Utah State at Weber State... and the VU opponent LOST that one...


Friday, November 10, 2017  Utah State 59  Weber State 65 

which pushed the record to 14-6 for the first two days ...

Loyola won by only 27.... 96-69 over Eureka this afternoon... so make that 15-6 on the weekend... with only the Chicago State/Purdue game to go.

Boilers up 49-24 with 2:30 to play in the first half.



VU2014

Valpo plays Purdue on 12/7. Purdue just beat Chicago State (who we just played in an exhibition) 111-42. The exhibition score was 77-42. I'm not necessarily expecting a win from that game but I'm hoping we have a strong showing vs Purdue later this season.

Valpo won a road game with only about 200 fans at the Jones Convocation Center at Chicago State. Purdue won at home in Mackey Arena. Huge difference.

ValpoDad89

A few takeaways...

Wow!!! Great win for UWM

SE Louisiana losing to Tulane by that margin considering how favorable they are / were being considered this year.

And Northwestern only winning by 9 at Home while struggling in their first home game against Mercer I believe, given their ranking and returnees is very surprising as well.

Loyola, MD actually. I really think we can sneak into Rosemont and steal a win over a B1G team in a location closer to B1G headquarters than the Northwestern campus in Evanston.

VULB#62

Yep, 2 close wins at Rosemont to open their season

NU 79 Loyola(MD) 75 (Patriot)
NU 75 St.Peters 66 (Metro Atlantic)

Next NU home game in on the 15th vs. Creighton (Big East)

ValpoDad89

I hope so many of our brothers in arm make it up North 294 and get to this game and promote this team. I will be there in full Valpo garb and regalia!!!!  I'll say this, NU could very well be vulnerable to what we bring to the table. The other thing is this, they beat Vandy in the NCAAs last year with a lesser team we will say. How does that not resonate with Bryce if we beat 'em on their modified home court!!!

I think I'll go with 20-5 and ignore the push.  The Conference games would make that a nightmare to track...
