What game will take the Drew Family to 1,000 Wins?

[talksalot]

Currently at #994...

Next 5 games scheduled:

12/6 - Baylor vs. Vanderbilt - Baylor wins it at home... That's number 995 !
12/8 - Baylor vs. Northwestern State- Baylor wins it...75-62...That's number 996 !
12/9 - Valpo at Indiana State~ Valpo wins it... 69-63... That's number 997 !
12/11 - Valpo at Chicago State
12/16 - Baylor vs Hardin-Simmons

so you first need to figure out how many of those 5 games will be "W's"...

then the poll starts with the next game

Not your traditional Baylor non-conference scheudule. Vanderbilt and Texas A&M are both very good.

Here I was thinking A&M was an early conference game.  SEC pshaw.

the 1000Th will be Homers Northside tap team 82 Vs Valpo YMCA 55  Homer gets Two T's

So... congratulations to the 5 folks who correctly selected the Valpo-Missouri State game to make the 1,000th win.  I talked to Homer after the game, and asked if he was planning to head to the Texas A&M game if we had lost and he said... you bet!   Then Janet hit him on the arm.... it was pointed out that it's the coaches' wives who make all the difference !

Next Milestone for Bryce is to move up on the Valpo Coaching W/L %...

Historical records:


#6  Drew, S   20  11   64.52      2002-03
#5  Winters     8    4    66.67%  1917-18 > 1918-19
#4  Drew, B 104  44   70.27%   
#3  Keogan  31   13    70.45%  1919-20 > 1920-21
#2  Goheen   30   12  71.43%   1921-22 > 1922-23
#1  Shadoan  33   9   78.57%    1923-24 > 1924-25

If we win the next game, moving Bryce to 105-44... it would move Bryce to 70.46%  and into 3rd place

If we lose at Belmont, we would need to win 5 in a row to get that above 70.45...

We need to end the year at 26-7 or better to have the WL% above 70.45.

I talked to Homer after the game, and asked if he was planning to head to the Texas A&M game if we had lost and he said... you bet! 

Nice!  That'd be a tough one to pull off.  Private plane fueled on the runway?  Maybe not that extreme, but it'd be awfully tight flying commercial.

A&M won it 80-61 in a game that was not that close... Aggies up 51-30 at the half!...

But Valpo and Baylor won the first 6 games in this poll...
