I would still figure BU to be a Thursday night team, though I think they'll be wearing the home whites on Thursday!
I agree that a fast start is a little deceptive. Had SIU won over BU the other night, there would be talk about which team is worse.
Braves fans, if you haven't noticed, are for the most part cautiously optimistic. We realize we haven't played very good teams yet, but will in this 3 game stretch.

The 2 wins to start conference play tell us that we are capable of beating the probable Thursday night teams.

Thats why i say the braves get that six slot. They beat a thursday night teams on the road, and it alot easier fashion than UE did.

Is it possible to put Illinois State in this discussion? 0-3 isn't impossible to overcome, but with some of the previous cellar dwellars playing better this season it definitely would be possible for ISU to stay at the bottom. Besides the top 3 right now it seems hard to say that any of the other schools are safe from Thursday night.

They have also played some pretty good teams to start off conference, just like UNI. Assuming Bryant Allen comes back quickly, they will still be a team to reckoned with. I just think the bottom of the conference may be bad enough, it will separate as well.

The Bears are still a likely Drake night team but less likely than before!

7. Northern Iowa
8. Illinois State
9. Southern Illinois
10. Drake

Definitely hope this is not the case for UNI and ISU, but it's certainly not looking good so far. Hopefully some of the teams will come back down to life, and teams like UNI and ISU will start to actually show some life.
