Drake Bulldogs
19-9 - 2nd in MVC2025 Schedule





























































Kentucky vs. South Carolina. Duke vs. Notre Dame. UCLA vs. USC. These must-watch games will decide conference races and March Madness seeds.

Tournaments from Las Vegas to the Bahamas played around the Thanksgiving holiday offer a feast of top nonconference games.

— Audi Crooks scored the winning shot as time expired and a season-high 33 points as No. 8 Iowa State survived with an 80-78 win over Drake on Sunday afternoon.

Audi Cooks puts up a buzzer-beater to give Iowa State an 80-78 victory over Drake.

Realignment and the quad system will change how the March Madness bracket is built, but big nonconference wins still carry weight.

Hidalgo or Latson in the ACC? Watkins or Betts in the Big Ten? Booker vs. Morrow in the SEC? We project all 31 Division I conference POY races.
