Late in the night, Valparaiso picked up a very nice 68-60 win over Alabama in the MGM Grand Main Event tourney. That’s a quality win for the Crusaders against a team that will be a tough out this year. Next, Valpo gets BYU in the final in a rematch of the two teams’ NIT semifinal game earlier this year after the Cougars blew out Saint Louis 92-62.
MGM Grand Main Event (Las Vegas, NV) – Alabama. The 2-1 Crimson Tide head to Las Vegas today to take on Valparaiso in a semifinal game at the MGM Grand Main Event. A win against the Crusaders would almost certainly result in a match-up with BYU on Tuesday (the Cougars will battle St. Louis in the tournament’s other semifinal). Many are expecting improvement from Avery Johnson’s club ahead of next year’s monster recruiting haul, and Alabama certainly needs to get the job done against teams like Valparaiso if it wants to think about playing meaningful games in March. Should the Tide get a shot at BYU, an excellent team that plays extremely fast (third in the nation), they will have a chance for a nice resume-building win.Peters scores 24, Valparaiso beats Alabama 68-60--CBS Sports

PF: Alec Peters, ValparaisoValparaiso in Las Vegas to take on Alabama, MGM Grand Main Event--NWI Times
Valparaiso was stoked that Peters opted to return this season, and it’s easy to see why. This dude is on another level.
On the season, Peters is averaging 25.8 points and 8.5 rebounds per game, highlighted by a 36-point, 15-rebound effort against Trinity. The scary thing? It’s reasonable to think his scoring could rise.
MORE: Week 1 college basketball roundup
For how great his raw numbers are, Peters hasn’t been very efficient thus far by his standards. The big man is only shooting 42 percent from the floor; in 2015-16, he made 50.5 percent of his field goal attempts. Peters is averaging 20.3 (!) shot attempts per game this season; to say that he has the greenest of lights is an understatement.
If Peters maintains this workload while upping his efficiency to career norms, look out. Actually, you should probably look out anyway. Valparaiso is always a fun team to watch, but Peters is can’t-miss these days.
