What's Up In The Missouri Valley 5/24/2019

5 Question Friday: Memorial Day Weekend is a top tier weekend--Mid-Major Madness

To start off, the Valley probably isn’t going to be a two-bid league this year. There doesn’t appear to be a team that’s a cut above the rest that could make a possible run at an at-large bid like we saw Belmont do and Wofford had they not won the SoCon tournament.

As far as favorites go, I really like what Dana Ford is putting together at Missouri State. The Bears are currently just outside the top 10 in the Other Top 25, and have a trio of transfers in Lamont West, Anthony Masinton-Bonner and Josh Hall that should have a huge impact right away. Loyola Chicago is always going to be a contender despite the production that they lost. Northern Iowa could also be a team that I think surprises some people.
