what else would you expect. Once agaon U of I gettin no respect and UNC and KU way overrated. KU barely won against vermont, UNC lost to Santa Clara, a pathetic team. Illini gettin the job done against Delaware St.                   

Illinois is a top 5 team, how is that not getting respect.

Without Felton, UNC was lost. Just sad.

My Wildcats gave me a scare, were down 9 in the second half but ended up winning. Parker hit a 3 pointer to win it, had a solid game. Hachad was pretty off and Vedran didn't shoot very well, but they still won. These guys might be scary once Thompson is eligible.

It's early. They barely won, but I'm thrilled to see Brandon Lee contribute. He definitely fits the possible diamond in the rough mold. Playing 2nd banana to some Shaun Livingston guy in HS didn't allow him to look good or put up the numbers, but I think he is going to be a stud.

you in the krush?

i am at the opposite end of the court right next to the band and like i said before in response to '99 i didnt think it was zone but my view is obstructed so its hard to even tell what they were doing defensively on that end but in the 2nd half they used no zone

Valpo won their opener last night 88-70 at Cincinatti!!! Look out Duke and Illinois!

Damn that's impressive.

Good to hear. Go Crusaders

Ok, now I'm really confused. Sportsline put us as winning 88-70 and then I went to the universitys site to get a recap and apparently we lost 88-70. Oh well I guess, we have a solid freshman class that can do good things later on.

SI had them at #9.

According to ESPN Valpo lost, and the headline is...With Huggins back on bench, Bobcats win

Well if that's the case, they were terribly underrated. I mean they just beat Deleware St. by 20 at home!!!

 

If they win the games they're supposed to, they're going to move up in the rankings. It's as simple as that.

Actually that makes much more sense. Oh well.

Yeah I checked my newspaper then and saw that it was Sportsline mistake. How could they make that big of a mistake when one team lost by almost 20 points?

How much did you have to drink last night?

cbsportsline.com has made many mistakes so far this season with the scores. I remember the had Mississippi State losing a game that they actually won, and they also said Cal beat St. Mary's. There was one more that I can't remember also. Thats pretty sad for paid professionals.

Hey I am a Missouri Valley guy so I am with you on the Salukis. I have met and like Chris Lowery as well.

 

Speaking of the Valley, cellar dweller Evansville won their opener Friday night with a 100-85 win over Central Michigan. I am not expecting big things, but hopefully they can improve. They went on a Canadian Tour in the preseason and won four games. They also won both of their pre-season games so Friday's win gives them seven in a row. Granted the competition level has sucked, but for them winning seven in a row against anyone is a step in the right direction.

Illini sound damn good.

32-12 lead.

Cool, I'll need some help this season. SIU up 16 with about 12 minutes left.

Illini playing damn good.

Dee Brown is tied with FAMU in points at 23.

Evansville wins their 2nd game of the season today, dropping Coastal Carolina 87-80.
