The team that intrigues me is Incarnate Word (UIW, usually). They've had some impressive games last year, and just pounded on what was supposed to be a pretty good Southern Illinois team ... and got a good bump in the poll.

Have not seen them play much, but we're going to keep an eye on them.

I’m in their backyard .May try to take in a game or two and get a feel for them. Feel like they may be a future playoff opponent. :|
