Rundown: Belmont coach Casey Alexander said this tournament is “going to be blood bath from the first tip-off.’’ It is an incredibly balanced league; you could make a case for eight teams to win this tournament. Bradley, a veteran team that plays outstanding defense and rebounds furiously, won the regular-season title by beating Drake in a winner-take-all game. Bradley is ranked in the top 25 in the country in margin of victory. However, Drake, Southern Illinois and Indiana State are all capable of stringing together victories.
What Belmont must do to win: The Bruins can be dynamic on offense; they’re outstanding shooters, both inside and outside the arc. If they can defend well enough, they have a chance. Securing a first-round bye by winning at Northern Iowa was important.
Prediction: Drake. The Bulldogs’ roster is loaded with veteran players who have been through this before and been successful. Their best player is sophomore forward Tucker DeVries, son of coach Darian Devries.
