This isn't a high expectation and should be achievable but I will make no prediction.

Speaking to my own expectations and season disillusionment I made a morning mental note to watch this game then completely forgot even with a largely uneventful day. I think this was more apathy than Alzheimers.

I guess moral victories is the best we can hope for.


By definition, moral victories are for losers. Moral Victory: noun; a defeat that can be interpreted as a victory on moral terms.

I have to say that I am a moron regarding Drake. They presumably make bucko Benjamins from the annual Drake Relays, adding significant revenue to their athletic programs.

I think the team has improved (not terribly challenging!) and is about as good as they can be.  Playing relatively close to a very talented and OLD Drake team on the road--was a good showing.  I do expect a few wins but a bottom three finish.
