Missouri Valley Tournament Preview, Bubble Watch

All times Central. The first two rounds will be televised on ESPN+, the semifinals on CBSSN, and the championship on CBS. All games will take place in St. Louis, MO.

Bubble Watch

Locks: Loyola-Chicago (8)

In as of now: Drake (12)

Drake feels destined to be the talk of the town Selection Sunday. The Bulldogs have the perennial bubble resume of a mid-major program with a gaudy record but a low strength of schedule. In my view, a loss to Loyola-Chicago in the MVC title game would leave the Bulldogs *just* on the right side of the bubble. A loss to anyone else, except for maybe Missouri State if a lot of things go sideways elsewhere, would be season-ending.

Needs auto-bid: Missouri State, Indiana State, Evansville, Valparaiso, Northern Iowa, Bradley, Southern Illinois, Illinois State
