Not likely to be a factor by the time the game rolls around but:

No lie... Northwestern is currently up 54-8.  Anyone need to work on some different defenses, get Chicago State on your schedule.

 

My goodness.

[49r]

LOL Chicago State is KenPom #343 (out of 351).  It just so happens we play the current #351 (Delaware State) on December 22nd.

Former Tim Miles assistant and Minnesota alum Niko Medved and the Drake Bulldogs have an early lead at the Barn.  Drake 11 - Minnesota 3.

We need Minny to get their poop in a group.  That win needs to look good and for that to happen, they need to win.

I have said before, and I'll say again, that Minnesota's run last season was shockingly similar to ours in 2014...just amazingly similar.

 

It's beginning to look like they could suffer a similar fate the following year that we did.  Still early though.

 

Drake leading 23-15 now with just under 5 minutes left in the first half.

True.  If we play at the top of our game most nights the rest of the year, a win over Minny isn't going to be the deciding factor on us getting in or not.  However, I would much rather have that win in our back pocket as a top 50 win.

[49r]

However, if they burn it to the ground this year and that helps us sneak out of Minneapolis with a W, I'm not going to be too upset if it's not a top 50 win.

...and Collins FINALLY took his starters out.  Bush league move, IMO, leaving them in so long.

It's possible that we did in fact break them.  I even heard the boos as the teams went in at halftime...figured it must have been for the refs, but:

 

 

Man, that hype train appears to be coming off it's rails!

You can catch Bakari Evelyn and Valpo take on Purdue tomorrow night. Hes averaging 11.5pts/3reb/4asst/1stl with solid shooting percentages.

 

Bakari has really struggled against Big 10 competition.  Just 3 points against Purdue and struggling against Northwestern tonight.

Nick Fuller had himself a game tonight!  Great to see him with some success.

Great!  We need some teams to be picking up wins so that our wins over them look a little better.
