MBB: Midwest Conference

[The Roop]

Actually they lost by 11 and since Roop Vegas had a spread of 11.5, they covered again. For now Lawrence appears to be the only real deal in the MWC this year. Everybody else seems to be mere kyber belt objects. Hopefully there are no upsets in the conference tournament or the MWC will be a one and done come NCAA time.

I'm not likely to make it on Saturday but Roop Vegas says take St. Norbert +7.5. I hope to see Oshkosh tomorrow vs. the Circus and then I'll have seen another LU opponent to base my Beloit @LU line on for Tuesday.

Any Yahoos making the Grinnell/Oshkosh game, I'll try to be there ON TIME (maybe 15 minutes before tipoff) and I'll be wearing my patented Rangers Starter jacket along with my purple Pointer hat...I'll hang out near the person who sells programs and near the "stereo system" setup...

Isn't Ripon v Lawrence this weekend too?

[The Roop]

Yes, LU and Ripon do play Saturday but Ripon isn't the easiest place for me to get to. As the crow flies Ripon isn't that far but in reality Beloit is only about 30 minutes further as it's all interstate driving. So you don't have to worry about somebodies pigs getting out and blocking the road when going to Beloit.

How about somebodies cows or llamas perhaps?

[The Roop]

Nobody that owns cows can afford to live near the interstate and the Llama owners are riff raff that live near Mt. Horeb. No where near the interstate in other words.

End of the NC schedule (tonight I think) got me thinking about strenght of schedule. 

The Massey results for the MWC through December 31 are as follows for SOS on a national basis

Carroll (1)
St Norbert (3)
Monmouth (15)
Lawrence (26)
Beloit (37)
Grinnell (40)
Ripon (44)
LFC (125)
IC    (221)
Knox (237)

Clearly there will be some changes this week.

[Pat Coleman]

Those are the non-margin of victory rankings. They're the ones that Massey only started calculating to appease the BCS.

[The Roop]

So basically all the MWC teams that played D2s suddenly have the toughest schedules. Since those games don't actually count in the D3 world I'm not sure how valid it is to consider them.

[The Roop]

OMG.............. I think I could iPod a talk to myself and be more entertaining than the UW-Oshkosh Crew. It's Ar sen No, not Ar sen Not for crying out loud.

You beat me to the punch Roop.

I dont like to rag on college kids, but this has all the makings of "boom goes the dynamite."

Google that phrase if you dont know what I am talking about.

what the hell is the score?!?!?

[WLCALUM83]

UW-Oshkosh 109, Grinnell 91, about 2/3 of way thru 2nd half.

[fightintitan2006]

thanks, I thought it was worse than that from what I have been hearing.
