Parrish the Thought

By Yoni Cohen on Mon Nov 12, 2007 at 05:46:54 PM EST

Unlike ESPN's Andy Katz, CBS Sports' Gary Parrish took note of the only significant NCAA Tournament development to have taken place in the first week of the 2007-2008 season.

The Missouri Valley Conference went only 7-4, with Missouri State losing to Toledo (Mid-American Conference) and Bradley falling to Illinois-Chicago (Horizon League).

The MVC's best win? Creighton over DePaul (Big East). Its other losses? Drake to Saint Mary's (West Coast Conference) and Evansville to Samford (Ohio Valley Conference).

The league's poor start doesn't bode well for its March future.

Sage of the Day: Kyle Whelliston.
