RE: ODU MBB Remaining Predictions

If we win out and lose in the championship, our RPI will be roughly 53 (according to RPI Forecast) and our only top 100 win would be @WKU (W&M is projected to fall out of the top 100). I don't think the halfcourt shot will be a factor. We are 0-3 against the top 100 either way without any signature wins. We are a good team that could potentially do some damage, but we don't have an at-large resume.
What we want is to win out and hope to get some help to get a #1 seed so we only have to play WKU/MTSU once in the tournament. Would much rather play Marshall in the semis as they aren't physical. I think we can beat WKU and/or MTSU, but not both on back to back days. The physicality and the grind is where the lack of depth would crush us.
