As I looked through the women's basketball polls this week, I realized that the ISU women's basketball team is ranked 35th in the Associated Press poll. Then I thought to myself, only 35th? They currently have a record of 15-2 with an unblemished 7-0 mark in Missouri Valley Conference play. Their only two losses came at the hands of quality opponents in major conferences. One of them was a blowout loss on the road against #5 ranked Connecticut. The other was a 10-point loss to Kentucky, who is a member of the SEC, arguably the best women's basketball conference in the nation with five ranked teams.

The 43-point loss to UConn doesn't look good.

As one of the headlines on the page linked above notes, senior Melanie Boeglin broke the Sycamores' individual record for one-game scoring by exploding for 46 points in last night's 92-87 double-OT win at Drake. The winning streak is now at 14 heading into Saturday's visit to Creighton, a traditional Missouri Valley Conference power which has not lost to ISU in Omaha since 1997. However, the Bluejays are struggling through a 6-11 campaign, which includes being routed at Northwestern in a game I attended. Last night, Creighton suffered its first-ever home loss to Illinois State, so the odds are good for Indiana State to emerge from the weekend with a 17-2 overall mark and a few more votes in the polls.

No quality wins. I'm all for ISU, but they won't get one either unless they get one in the tournament.

Go Lisch!
