The games on Saturday & Sunday at Southern Illinois in Carbondale have been postponed. Let's see what a little bit more practice time can do for this Valpo MBB team.

It dawned on me that all these postponed games could lead to a season finish like the Cardinals had in MLB with multiple doubleheaders. Could the Crusaders have to play 3 back-to-backs in one week? 6 games in 7 days? How much room in the schedule did the MVC leave?

Looks like we got a good replacement game that should be interesting.

Yeah, interesting is putting it lightly. Two struggling teams that could use a win. JFL has been slumping a bit, so hopefully we continue that trend, and he doesn't light us up lol.

excited to watch this game. DePaul has struggled for a long long time but it would be awesome to beat a Big East team. Oh yeah, will also be fun watching Sackey going against old mate in Liberty.

Javon: You did what?

Coach L: We scheduled a game against Valpo in 2 days.

Javon: Uh, what?

Coach L: Fox Sports said they would televize it and as you know they aren't that far from us.

Coach L: Yes, Javon, we are going to play Valpo.

Javon: Wow! It feels like I just got hit by a forearm!

Coach L: Just think how it will feel if we beat them.

Javon: Yes, but what if we lose to Valpo. That could be horrible.

Coach L: They're pretty bad. How could we lose?
