(St. Louis, MO) – Illinois State finds itself in a strange position. They are the last Missouri Valley Conference basketball team still playing in post season basketball. Tonight (Monday) the Redbirds host Texas A & M in second round action of the College Basketball Insider tournament.

The Redbirds (17-15) after their 77-67 win over Morehead State, ISU hosts the SEC’s Aggies (18-15) in the CBI quarterfinals. It is a chance for Valley revenge after Sunday’s loss by Wichita State to Kentucky.
It has been a difficult post season for the MVC with a collective record of 2 & 3 record. ISU remains as the last Valley banner carrier. The Aggies are just 1 – 12 on the road this season and the Redbirds are 13-3 at Redbird Arena.
Game time is set for 8:05 CT and can be seen on the CBS Sports Network.

Flooding, lightning strikes, etc. have cost @RacersHoops two home games. Had to play 'neutral site' tonight instead of at home and Wednesday's goes from home to away. Tough break for the Racers, and the whole area has been hit with difficulties. #FatherHarry
Murray State's scheduled home game Wednesday vs. Southern Illinois being moved to Banterra Center in Carbondale. #ValleyHoops
Gigantic game for @BradleyUMBB today in Des Moines. If they have a chance to catch @DrakeBulldogsMB, they have to win today. The Bulldogs can basically win the title today. @BustingBrackets breaks it all down. #FatherHarry https://bit.ly/3EGiVgi
Not rooting for any particular @ValleyHoops, but chaos is always fun. If things break certain ways, after today there could be a six-way tie for fifth place.
Fun to listen to @MLBLarry on the @SIU_Basketball/@BelmontMBB game tonight. Good job brother. #FatherHarry
