Game! Of! The! Night! Dec 17: Indiana State at Butler

|

With Missouri State's loss the other night in Arkansas, there are only two unbeatens left in the Mid-Majority. Seven-and-ohIona is one, a bunch of Terre Haute Trees who have won their first five are the other. Led by TMM favorite David Moss (20.8 ppg), Indiana State heads to Hinkle on the heels of two impressive home wins over Indiana and Ball State.

After a season-opening blowout loss against UNC-Wilmington at the BCA Invitational (which doesn't look so bad now, considering the Seahawks' recent run), the Butler Bulldogs have been slowly putting things together, compiling a 5-3 record in the early going. They've won three in a row - most recently, a 70-60 deceision over Bradley - and have lulling opponents to sleep with a ponderous yet effective style of play. Can the law firm of Polk and Graves litigate the unbeaten list down to one? Stay tuned!
