St Lou seeding predictions on 2/12

[LincolnJay]

Thought it would be fun to see where people see things falling. I am hoping my Jays can still get a piece of the regular season title but they have no shot at the #1 seed so:

1) SIU
2) CU
3) MSU
4) BU
5) WSU
6) UNI
7) UE
8) In St
9) & 10) DU & Il St ~ I know they split so if they tie, I have no idea who gets 9 vs. 10.

3, 4 and 5 are still to be determined. MSU could lose 2 of the next 3 to bring them back to BU and WSU. I think that Bradley has the best remaining schedule to pick up some ground.

With apologies to all Drake fans, neither team deserves to make the trip to St. Louis. A waste of gas and hotel space.

When did Drake fan take up hotels and use gas for the tournament? Half the time I'm one of about ten Drake fans there.

How do you figure UNI is going to finish ahead of BU? Out of the 3 teams vying for 4-5-6, BU has the easiest road by far.

BU - @ UE, UNI, InSU - Likely 2-1, 3-0 not out of the picture.
WSU - @ DU, MSU, @ CU - 0-3 or 3-0, but likely 1-2.
UNI - @ CU, @ BU, ISU - Anything other than 1-2 would be suprising.

The only thing that will keep UNI out of Thursday is the fact they hold the tiebreaker over UE.

Wichita State
W Drake
W Missouri State
W Creighton
(11-7)

UNI
L Creighton
W Bradley
W Illinois State
(9-9)

Bradley
L Evansville
L UNI
W Indiana State
(9-9)

UNI has tiebreaker over Bradley with a sweep of the Braves.

Hell, I am worried about the Shockers winning Wednesday night against Drake, let alone winning out.

About the only thing I feel assured about is I do not think the Shockers will be a play in team. That is all.

Very true, Drake likely will struggle to have 100 non family fans in St Louis. Hard to find many fanatics interested in driving 6 hours for a play in game.

I wasn't talking about the fans for the Bulldogs and Redbirds. I was talking about the teams wasting gas and hotel space by making the trip.
Neither team should be invited to play. Neither deserve to play.

Maybe Josh Young and Osiris Eldridge can play 1-on-1 to represent the schools. Those two are about all either of us have to look forward to.

:bulldogs: :redbirds:

[jaypharmalum]

I believe SIU defeating MSU tonight means the Jays will be the #2 seed in STL. Correct?

[Nyghtewynd]

You can probably pencil the Bears in for fourth now. They'll probably lose to WSU, since that game means something and Hinson is horrible in games that mean something.

[BearsCountry]

Well blow my predictions up.

[cpacmel]

BU will not lose at home to UNI. Book it!

UNI 79
Bradley 70

FINAL

game played in Peoria, Illinois

:doh:

[Khan4Cats]

Okay, the top three seeds are set. I know Bradley gets the 4 with a W Saturday, WSU is the 6 with a L Saturday. UNI can go anywhere from 4-6. I know a W puts them in the 4/5 game, a L and a WSU W lands them in 6. Is there any way that WSU can jump to 4 and BU drop to 6? Not sure how tie breakers play out if all three are 9-9.

3 way tiebreaker between Bradley, WSU and UNI would go to a mini-tourney with the 3

UNI 3-1
WSU 2-2
Bradley 1-3

UNI would be the 4th seed, WSU the 5th, and Bradley the 6th. If they all tied with a 9-9 record
