Who wants to play Thursday?

With the Arch Madness tourney less than 4 weeks away and the middle of the pack seriously jammed, any guesses as to the 4 teams who'll play in Thursday's play-in round?
 
SIU and Evansville have already volunteered. With all the injury problems Indiana State has, I would guess they'll be raising their hand in the next week or two. That leaves one spot for the Thursday Night Pillow Fight. I think Drake is the frontrunner, followed by Missouri St, us, Creighton, and ISU.
 
I think the big question is - MSU or DU?
Unless the Sycamores can overcome a Marshall-less team, they'll be playing.

#10 EU = 0-18
#9 SIU = 7-11
#8 ISU (blue) = 8-10
#7 MSU = 9-9 (I think Drake wins the tie-breaker?)
 
This is why a sweep of Indiana St. could be huge because if we ended up tied with Drake or Indiana St. or both for the last couple of Thursday spots, at least we'd hold the tiebreaker over them.

I think it'll end up with Evansville, Southern, Indiana St., and either Drake or Mo. St. Drake has a huge game at home against Northern Iowa and we have all seen how difficult it is to play there this season so an upset wouldn't surprise me and it would really help Drake.
