And five of our last six are against Eight through Twelve. Three wins clinches a four seed, I think.

Do top 2 seeds earn a bye till conference semifinals or does everyone play thurs?

That’s a little misleading as it feels like we’ve been historically bad at ball, emu and niu.

No. It changed back last year to top 4 get byes to quarters.

With 3 wins, the worst we would be is #3.

3 of the current top 4 seeds...are from the West.

Still quite a bit of ball to play, but who would have expected that if it holds?

Well, the statement isn’t misleading but you’re absolutely correct that we have been bad in those places over several years. We’re 7-1 on the road this year so maybe we turn it around.

Well, I predicted we’d be roughly 14-18 for the year.

We also have struggled at WMU and look at what happened there.

A number 3 seed that beat us twice, a low NIU that just took out the top seed and a PG on injury. Not comforting.

Potential for tons of movement in the 3-12 group over the last 2 games.

Thankfully the rockets aren’t involved in that mess.

4 of the top 6 currently from the West. West plays better football, and now better basketball. May indeed be time to break the West up.
