Based on what I have seen, Wichita State and MSU are a tossup for the top two with Bradley, Creighton, and UNI in the top half. This will be a make or break season for Martin, but the Bears return eveyone, should be hungry, and have a pretty solid knowledge of what they need to do every night. Wichita also has the horses and experience. But then, they play the games to decide what actually does happen and we all know there are surprises every year. What will be fun is seeing who develops out of nowhere and who falls on their face in the clutch. What I really like is seeing these kids the big boys did not want develop, learn, and play the game efficiently as their coaches coach them up. Can't be enough said for seniors.

And then there is always a team that no one thinks will can win who will rise from the ashes and challenge to the last week. SIU? ISU red? Drake? Who knows cause remember, no one knows.

A couple of things: I think that WSU finishing 6th is absolutely ridiculous. Creighton will be dangerous. UNI will surprise people. UE will finish nowhere near the top 3. With that said...

Really laying it out there with this pick! I bet Duke won't finish in the top 3 of the MVC this year either. ;)

1. Wichita State - nice inside/outside combo. Mental lapses will be the difference, IMO, between a dominant season and a good one.

2. Bradley - The pieces are there on the perimeter and wings, probably the best in the league. Inside will tell the tale for the Braves. Les probably won't like the outcome if they don't finish this high.

3. Missouri State - Experienced group, tough defense will be the hallmark. If they get consistent offense, they'll be very tough.

4. UNI - Battle tested group, good coach. Can they replace what the lose? Will sophomore Koch be better than the elder?

5. Creighton - New (old MVC) coach, best big in the league...but some questions. Enough talent is there to push higher.

6. Indiana State - Toughest team to peg, IMO. Could be top three and maybe win the league if things go well. Could be a debacle. Time will tell. My hunch is that this is too low for the Sycs.

7. Drake - Another of those teams that could make a jump up. Intriguing players on board, but can Phelps put it all together?

8. Illinois State - Probably too low, but when you lose the players they did it's tough to pick them much higher. Jank could earn his stripes this year.

9. Southern Illinois - SIUCC is full of new players, which can't be good after the season they just had. Maybe work will trump the "talent" the used to have?

10. Evansville - Well, I can't see how they compete for much higher than 9th.

1. Wichita State: Top 25 team.
2. Missouri State: A lot of potential and could be the second team from the MoVal in the NCAA Tournament
3. UNI: Riding the wave of confidence and winning
4. Bradley: If inside game produces, watch out!
5. ISU-Red: Can't help but feel Redbirds will be fighting their way to a top half finish
6. Creighton: Adjustment/Transition year
7. ISU-Blue: A riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma. Could jump up 4 spots
8. Drake: Simply a riddle that could jump up a few spots as well
9. SIU: CL will be gone - unfortunately - after this year
10. UE: Will upset some people and hopefully not a Top 25 team
