Game! Of! The! Night!  Creighton Bluejays  Drake Bulldogs  Princeton Tigers  Southern Illinois Salukis  Wichita State Shockers  Colonial  

All due respect to the Valentine's Day bloodbath tonight between Penn and Princeton, there's no love lost in the upper reaches of the MVC. After a freaky weekend that saw five road wins, the best (and mathematically strangest) mid-major conference in America still features a four-way tie at the top at 11-4 with three regular-season games remaining.

At No. 29, Creighton is actually fifth in Valley RPI (9-6 Astyle=font-weight:bold HREF=http://www.bbstate.com/schools/MOST>Mo-State has a 25); they're coming off a home loss to Southern Illinois and will try to lock down WSU with the 26th most efficient D in the country (90.6 rating). Wichita State earned its 20th win of the year over the weekend, always a good sign when it comes to the NCAA's. They also would seem to have the inside track to the MVC one-seed: the Jays will act as the Shockers' final test of the regular season, before they face Drake and Ill-State to close out the slate. Will the house rock? You bet. (Note to the 34 U.S. households with ESPNU: you're in luck!)
