Don't look now, but USI has slid up to the highest ranked OVC team on the Kenpom rankings after beating SIU last night.

#200 Southern Indiana
#227 Morehead St
#274 Tennessee St
#275 SIU Edwardsville
#291 Southeast Missouri St
#317 Tennessee Martin
#324 Little Rock
#340 Tennessee Tech
#349 Lindenwood
#354 Eastern Illinois

Figured I'd throw out some opportunity for friendly OVC banter.

Here at USI, we are thrilled so far with our opening week. 6-pt loss on the road at Mizzou (in spite of lots of first-game jitters in the first half) and then an 18 pt win on the home opener against SIU who I'm sure will become a major future rival - and Notre Dame is next on the calendar on Wednesday night. Can they pull off a big upset twice in one week?

I see SEMO plays Evansville this week too - give 'em hell. But don't sleep on them - they are actually looking good so far this season!
