Southeast Missouri State (12-9, 7-2 OVC) visits #9 Murray State (21-0, 9-0 OVC) on Thursday.

This thread is not really a prediction thread, I'm sure that none of us know enough about either team to do anything other than predict MSU as the winner. I think this is a good reminder to all of us to try and catch this Kentucky team. As I have watched highlights of this team, I am convinced - THIS TEAM IS GOOD!

Records can be inflated due to competition, but this team has a lot of great qualities. Their guard play is exceptional. They have extremely talented big men. And their bench is deep.

Thursday night at ESPNU at 8:00, they will be taking on the #2 team in their conference. This would be a great opportunity to see this team perform. When the dance rolls around in March, this is a team that I would want to avoid if I am from one of the major conferences.

Check them out tomorrow, I will be.
