Which Valley team will bag the first big win?

[Aargh]

And you would be right. Our game with UConn is a highly anticipated game not only for us, but around the conference.

That game is highly anticipated in a lot more places than around the conference.

If MSU can beat Arkansas St on Tuesday in Knoxville, then they will likely get Tennessee in a true road game on Wednesday with a trip to MSG on the line. I'm not saying MSU would win that potential game, but it would be a nice opportunity for MSU and the league.

The MSU at Tulsa game on Friday will be MSUs third in four days.

I like your chances against Tenn. They've got some off-the-court issues that aren't resolved, plus they choked against DII Indianapolis a week ago on the court. Any Valley team that can knock off Pearl is ok by me.

Who'd a thunk it.

Evansville

[RoyalShock]

Whoa.

[1972Shocker]

At Butler to boot. Butler had not lost a home game in a couple of years.

[kcshocker11]

Unbelievable isnt it!

[WSUwatcher]

!

At Butler, no less. That's just weird.

[ShockerFever]

How could a team lose at home to a D-3 school and then win at Butler? This win is good for the Valley but means nothing in the long run to EU.

Da Aces are Da Bomb.

[shox1989]

Aces! Aces!

[WstateU]

:shock:

[Aargh]

If there had been a betting line on this and someone had put $100 on UE, they'd probably be a millionaire today.

Farmers Almanac said the sun was going to shine all day & night in Evansville yesterday.

[BostonWu]

Makes you wonder how good Butler will be after their championship appearance.

[WuDrWu]

Butler was also without PG Ron Nored who suffered a concussion in their last game.

Let's face facts, don't respect your opponent, go long stretches without scoring, live off yesterday's successes and have a key injury or 2 and everyone can be beat by anyone.

And Evansville can beat Butler. This isn't that big a surprise.

Evansville is still going to be playing Thursday night. And they are still a drag on the Valley, and they still should be in DII, and their mascot still looks like a pimp.
