Every game counts!!

According to who? I'm pretty sure we lose the tie breaker with Kent, due to winning percentage against the best MAC team (keeps going down the standings if the percentage is the same). It eventually gets down to Miami, where we lost to them and Kent won.

I agree Sam, that is how I interpreted the tie-breakers. Also that is what I posted last night from Jeremy Guy.

This has nothing to do with seeding, but Murphy and team have been saying if Toledo on Friday we will share the MAC West title with them.

We'll both have an 8-2 divisional record. But is that how it's decided? Is it overall conference record? Or just intra-division games?

My source is Coach Murphy.

What? Toledo clinched the West by beating WMU. The best record in the division wins the division... 13-5 or 12-6 will be that record regardless of the outcome. Not that divisions matter at all for seeding anyhow... It's just a reason to raise a banner.

He’s trying to save his job. I’d expect nothing less.

We're hosting on Monday as either the 5th or 6th seed. EMUHoops is promoting the game on Twitter now: https://twitter.com/EMUHoops/status/1103413897950908416

We will get Ball State at home.

I guess I messed up the tourney brackets pretty good.
