Which team winning would be best for our league?
Denver is leaving the league, but they have an RPI of 81. Probably would be a 14 seed if they get in. A loss in the final and they have a very good shot at going to the NIT along with MTSU (who has an automatic bid)
NT with an RPI of 192 would be a 16 seed. Western with an RPI of 212 would be in the play-in game. I think they might blow the doors off whoever they play in that game which would get the Sun Belt an NCAA win and some extra money. No way WKU is playing like a play-in 16 seed at this point.
Unfortunately, ASU's upset really didn't much for them but has no given the opportunity for some other low RPI team to represent the Belt in the NCAA. I think Denver could be a tough matchup for some teams, but NT and WKU both have some high DI talent. Obviously, Mitchell was a 5 star, and Gordon at WKU was a 4 star who was recruited by Duke, UNC, Florida and a bunch of others.
