TERRE HAUTE, Ind. -- On the heels of Saturday's thrilling 66-64 victory at Bradley to conclude the regular season, the Missouri Valley Conference officially announced the bracket for the 2018 edition of Arch Madness on Sunday morning.
As expected, the sixth-seeded Sycamores opponent will be No. 3 Illinois State, who tied for third in the league standings against Drake but will face off against Indiana State by virtue of the league's RPI tiebreaker. The Redbirds owned an 84 to 162 edge in this morning's RPI report.
The Sycamores vs. Redbirds game will cap what promises to be a thrilling day at Arch Madness when the two teams meet up on Friday, March 2 at 9:30 p.
