      we're not guaranteed that. If we lose saturday, we'd be the 6. An SIU win tonight eliminates that

        We don't get #6 unless Drake AND Evansville win out.

          SIU has basically just won as Young missed a FT to tie the game.

              Friday afternoon for us. Either against Evansville or Wichita State.

                  Someone suggested if all the home teams win Saturday, SIU could get the 5 against us as the 4.

                    We play WSU if they win at SIU.
                    We play SIU if they beat WSU, and we beat DU, and UNI beats UE.
                    We play either SIU or Evansville (very close in tiebreaker, but slight edge to SIU probably) if SIU beats WSU, DU beats us, and UNI beats UE.
                    We play Evansville in any other scenario.

                      I will do cartwheels if we get to play SIU in a 4-5 game without Mullins. Even with their "home court" advantage, we're better and should beat them soundly. Other teams however, I'm not as confident with.

                        I don't exactly like posting valleytalk links on here, but someone in the 2nd post of this thread does a really good job of showing the probability of seeding for the tourney.

                        This is just the tip of the iceberg...

                          I also think it's funny how SIU can get as high as a 5 seed, or as low as a 9 seed... but it is statistically impossible for them to get a 7 seed. It's a crazy league.

                            no matter our seed, it will be soo tought to win mvc tourny. Creighton is really playing their best right now and BU just has trouble scoring in close games and have trouble putting a win streak together. I really really hope BU can win it and make NCAA tourny but it doesnt look likely......

                              If we win the first one I like our chances because it seems this team plays better the more it plays. The Florida tournament could be an indication of what we are capable of doing in a 3 game tourney. I agree that CU has to be the overwhelming favorite.
