(St. Louis, MO) – Illinois State finds itself in a strange position. They are the last Missouri Valley Conference basketball team still playing in post season basketball. Tonight (Monday) the Redbirds host Texas A & M in second round action of the College Basketball Insider tournament.

The Redbirds (17-15) after their 77-67 win over Morehead State, ISU hosts the SEC’s Aggies (18-15) in the CBI quarterfinals. It is a chance for Valley revenge after Sunday’s loss by Wichita State to Kentucky.
It has been a difficult post season for the MVC with a collective record of 2 & 3 record. ISU remains as the last Valley banner carrier. The Aggies are just 1 – 12 on the road this season and the Redbirds are 13-3 at Redbird Arena.
Game time is set for 8:05 CT and can be seen on the CBS Sports Network.
