Arch Madness is Here

We have made it to the point in championship week where it is Arch Madness time! The Missouri Valley is the first conference to tip off this afternoon as they begin the first round of their conference tournament. I love a league that spaces out the tip off times so we can watch a full game before the next one starts. Starting at 3:30 PM CST (8) Southern Illinois plays Patriotic Doug's (9) Drake Bulldogs, (7) Valparaiso takes on (10) Indiana State and popular bonus point pick (6) Northern Iowa plays Conservative Doug's (11) Evansville Aces. Our pool is going to experience at least one loss today during Arch Madness. 💥

When we breakdown the Missouri Valley further, (1) Belmont won the league, has a 31.67% chance to win the championship and 50% of our pool is supporting the 1-seed. Outside of Belmont, our picks are spread across almost every team, but four out of the last five years a 1 or 2 seed has been champion. 🥇


This will not be the only blog entry today, please make sure to subscribe or check back later this afternoon to see a breakdown of the rest of today's action. We have so much conference tournament basketball, including quarterfinals for the Ohio Valley, Patriot League and Summit League, the Sun Belt keeps on trucking and the West Coast Conference tips off in Las Vegas! The losses are going to start to add up quickly, and for some, pile up quickly. 🔴
