Illinois St. is crushing Creighton in the first half.

Not surprised.

If you saw the way Creighton eeked out a win over Wichita State, I think they were too emotionally worn out for today's game.

Is that a first for them? Winthrop has owned that conference for the last few years.

Whoever faces East Tennessee State in the big dance better be careful- they took down Arizona as a 14-seed in 1992.

Every year I watch the MVCCG, it always seems like the final score is in the 40's.

Butler only up by 2 with :41 left over Wright St.

IF Butler loses, that puts them in the at-large pool, and will knock a hopeful bubble team out.

It's a moot point: Butler hangs on.
