The Basics
The Bulldogs's Missouri Valley Conference schedule will continue on the road this
weekend. Drake will visit Missouri State (Jan. 24) and Southern Illinois (Jan. 26) with
hopes of getting back into the win column.
Bulldog Bites
Riding a 9-game winning streak, Drake returned home for a challenging weekend versus Murray State and Belmont last weekend. The Bulldogs dropped both games to slip down the MVC standings but are still in position to make more noise in Valley play. Drake's two losses last weekend marked the first time the Bulldogs have lost two straight home games since 2022 and first 2-game losing spurt in MVC play since 2023.
