2019-20 Nominations: "Cone of Shame"

[WuShock Reaper]

As Stickboy46 pointed out yesterday, the Loyola Ramblers got drilled by the DII Indianapolis Greyhounds 60-65. For the second straight season, the UIndy men's basketball team kicked off its exhibition slate with a win over an NCAA Division I program from the Missouri Valley Conference (MVC). Last year they beat Valparaiso 60-57

When you lose to a DII program, that will get you a nomination to the "Cone-of-Shame" each and every time.

And in other news, it's still windy in Chicago.

Another nominee, "The" Missouri State Bears of Springfield, Missouri in the Missouri Valley Conference (MVC) whiffed last night and lost in their season opening game at home when Little Rock hit the game-winning shot with 2.3 seconds remaining, propelling the Trojans to a 67-66 win at JQH Arena in front of 5,002 fans (capacity of 11,000). Missouri State was picked first in the MVC this season, while Little Rock had a consensus of being 12th among all 12 teams.

Let the corks fly Missouri State.

Really bad loss, but they’ll be a lot better when they get 6-8, 250lb GaIge Prim back later this year. First team NJCAA and the leading scorer and rebounder on Trey Wade’s team, which is pretty amazing now that I’ve seen Trey. That will allow West and Da Silva to play their normal positions. Still MVC favorites in my book.

Feels weird to defend SWOMO, but I just don’t have any animus toward them anymore. I follow the MVC now like I followed my high school team after going to college: mildly interested, but not engaged.

#1 Kentucky loses to Evansville who was A 24.5-POINT UNDERDOG

"The loss marked Kentucky's first defeat to a team outside the Power 5 conferences at Rupp Arena in the John Calipari era and UK's first home loss to a team outside the Power 5 since a season-opening defeat by VMI on Nov. 14, 2008. "

Didn’t Kentucky lose a home game to like Robert Morris in the NIT a few years back?

2012-13, they went 21-12 to get a 1 seed in the NIT. They were supposed to host the 1st round, but the first two rounds of the NCAAs were at Rupp, so they played at Robert Morris and lost 59-57.
