Ordered my season tix a few days ago and am ready to get this regular season underway. The Last 2 meetings between these two were blowouts by BG in '91 and '92. Apparently Valpo is changing conferences this season. They've been in the Mid-Con for the last 15 years and are now joining the Horizon League.
Should be a nice early test for your young falcons. I don't know if we'll win or not but it should be an exciting game.
GO FALCONS!!!!!!!!!!!!! CRUSH THE CRUSADERS!!!!!!!

Yeah....sorry about that chief. I wasn't up on my Valparaiso spelling and apparently Firefox's spell check function isn't perfect. No wonder everyone just calls them Valpo.
Valpo did win 20 games last year, so they look like a pretty solid team. However, they did go only 1-2 against the MAC last year. They're a relatively small team, and a relatively young team (only 2 SRs). They lost their top 3 scorers and top 2 rebounders from last year's team, so they look to be in the same general situation as us.
This will be a nice early test for our young team.
