As long as we didn't fall.

I was worried that only 1 game and it being a Summit team and not on TV in anyway might get UNI "forgotten" - that whole "out of site out of mind" thing - and get UNI dropped some.


IF UNI can get through these first two conference games (@ Evansville and vs Loyola) There's a strong chance we go into the Sunday afternoon (Jan 18) game against MSU at 16-1 and an okay chance at being 20-1 going into the first WSU game.

Okay now that I said that I need to say UNI somehow manages to lose 4 of the first 6 MVC games some how...to offset that jinx...right?

True considering an undefeated TCU team dropped out for G'Town to move in.

Pollsters showed UNI pretty solid respect, shame they fell just short of sticking around.

Great chance to re-enter next week with upcoming games they should win against SIU and @ Drake.

Will be interesting to see where UNI sits 5 games from now. Would be really nice for them to solidify themselves in the teens by the time they play host to WSU. I'd really like the winner of that game to grab a great win, and the loser to keep a spot solidly in the Top 25.

A 19-2 UNI team would probably be about 15?
