So Missouri Valley gets its Top 5 RPI teams on TV and MAC can't get its Top 2 in? Geesh.

Intriguing matchup. When I saw it orginally I yawned but then I saw they were 16-7 and playing well as of late. I'm also a big fan of the 7pm start time. That should be sibs weekend correct? Sounds like another good opportunity to get the Convo good and packed again.

Nothing has changed at ESPN Ted. It's all about the almighty dollar. MVC gets them the chance to make more money than the MAC does. Name recognition. I want to see us stick it to UNCA just to prove a point.

It really doesn't help anybody but the top 4 seeds. Maybe.
