Today in the Valley: November 28, 2010

Illinois State (4-1) vs. Jacksonville State (2-4)

Redbird Arena; Normal, Ill.

3:35 CT

The Redbirds had a bit more of a game on their hands than I expected as they were only able to beat Louisiana-Monroe 59-55.  Playing on their home court, you would have thought the Redbirds would have been able to handle LMU with a bit more ease.  ISU-Red will wrap up the Global Sports Challenge today in Normal as they host the Gamecocks from Jacksonville State.

The Gamecocks will be coming off a 64-56 victory over South Dakota, and will look to play for the upset tonight.  The way Illinois State has been playing lately, it could very well happen.
