January 11, 200818 yr AWESOME! I think the Eagles are starting to turn the corner to Success Ave. They were predicted to finish last in the OVC this season and I laughed.
January 11, 200818 yr I was listening to the UL game in the car and it was 28-22 EKY when I heard an update. Glad to see the Eagles came back!
January 11, 200818 yr In other OVC news, Murray State, in consecutive games has taken down the top 2 teams in conference (SEMO by 25 points or so, and Austin Peay last night by 12). That now puts them in the top 4. The Racers have finally decided to turn it on. Plus, they were hosed down at Samford a few weeks ago (if anybody heard about that game) so they should be a game better than they are right now.

I know SEMO has a decent record, but I'm not buying that they're the 2nd best team in the conference. Actually, in the OVC, I don't think there is a frontrunner just yet. I think any team can win on any night and they're all evenly matched - except for Eastern Illinois, which should finish on the bottom. Still - two good wins for Murrary State.
January 11, 200818 yr Approaching the mid-point of the OVC basketball season and thought we could keep the discussion of teams in this thread since we have some fans from each school. Standings through 1/11/08: OVC Overall Austin Peay 6-1 10-7 Southeast Missouri State 6-1 11-6 Murray State 5-3 8-7 Samford 4-3 7-8 Tennessee-Martin 4-3 8-9 Tennessee State 3-3 6-9 Eastern Kentucky 3-4 6-9 Morehead State 3-4 5-9 Tennessee Tech 3-4 6-11 Jacksonville State 1-6 3-12 Eastern Illinois 1-7 2-14
January 11, 200818 yr I mentioned the Samford game from a few weeks ago when Murray State lost amidst some controversy. Here is the link to that game if you did not hear about it... http://www.goracers.com/ViewArticle.dbml?SPSID=32202&SPID=2583&DB_OEM_ID=6700&ATCLID=1355256 Samford had no replay capabilities. I am not sure what OVC schools do besides Murray State.

This type of thing happens in the OVC from time-to-time :sssh:
