I have to give a shoutout to my alma mater for almost winning the Missouri Valley Conference yesterday.
It appears they be on the rise the next few years and played some quality teams really tough this weekend.
Was fun to see them play well yesterday on regionally covered television. I think the MVC will be represented
well this year in the NCAA with Wichita St. and Creighton.

That was a great Basketball game. They damn near won the game despite an 0 for 6 cold spell in OT.

Kinda like the Yankees. ISU wasn't expected to do anything in that tournament and almost
got into the big dance.
