Re: at Eastern Illinois

A 16 has been beaten before. In 2018, UMBC (Maryland-Baltimore County) became the first #16 seed to upset a #1 seed when the Retrievers defeated Virginia 74-54. In 2023, Fairleigh-Dickinson University became just the second #16 seed to upset a #1 seed when they shocked Purdue 63-58.    wiu712 A 16 ...

Re: at Eastern Illinois

Joe Lunardi has us in his latest bracket as a 16 seed taking on Kansas in LA.   Yay! Can't wait to be a 16 seed. So happy to be in the lackluster OVC so we can make the tourney as a 16 seed. Can hardly control my enthusiasm.    Well he has Omaha as the 16 seed in a play In game but will ignore that...

Re: vs Lindenwood

So this guy would be happier right now if the men's basketball team was 0-3 in the Summit, then 3-0 in the OVC. I agree with pretty much everything Scott said. Also I have no insider knowledge but I think the reason they didn't move to the OVC earlier was the desire to stay in the MVFC.   I never s...

Re: vs Lindenwood

Sounds like to me the move everyone is excited about the move. I ha e been been following Leatherneck athletics since before I attended (following more than 20 years ago). I can tell you that the OVC does nothing to excite me for football. If you win or finish even in the top 3 in the MVFC you are l...
