MVC standings for 2/27/13

[Da Coach]

Bradley now is guaranteed to play Thursday night, and is in real danger of falling to 9th place.

If we lose on Saturday wouldn't that leave us tied for 8th? Or tied for 7th if Drake also loses?

Technically yes, but we get the 9 seed with a loss and a Drake win.

Oh, I get that. I just can't imagine Bradley saying they finished 9th. If we lose on Saturday we are going to say we finished 7th or 8th. We are not going to say we finished 9th. Only people trying to minimize the teams accomplishments would claim that.

...or those focused on MVC tournament seeding.

I'm the first to admit that while I definitely saw improvement this year, I was really looking at us staying out of Thursday as my benchmark. That said, let's put on the big boy pants and get a win on MSU on Saturday. Then, we coast to a win on Thursday, getting plenty of opportunity to play our bench and rest our starters, because MK knocks down 5 three's in a row. We come in psyched to play on Friday, and get revenge on Creighton. It's a whole new season after that!
