Lol. No. If UB beats us we are 15-5 and they are 14-5 and they will jump us.

I've seen 4-5 games in NIU's new arena (I think it was finished in 2001 or so). As much as you'll hear people complain about the MAC, NIU's arena is an example of newer ain't necessarily better.

The mid court logo looked like a health class diagram of ovaries. I'll see myself out.

Actually if UB beats us and OU wins it will essentially be a 3 way tie and I think we would get the 4th seed being that we would be 1-3 against OU and UB.

So again to rehash the seedings. A loss would make a 3 way tie with OU and Buffalo (even at 14-5). Buffalo: 2-0 vs. Kent
0-1 vs. OU
OU vs Kent 1-1
Does that make us 4th vs. Akron?
That's the one team I'd rather not face.

Be honest, the last time we played NIU did anyone think we'd get our 20th win against them with a game to go before the tournament? I sure didn't.

Friday IS the big one

Hopefully Marketing can ramp up some advertising. "Biggest game in 20 years..."

It's quite amazing that the season began looking like a disaster, but even with a loss Friday it would still end up being the best regular season MAC winning percentage of the Senderoff era and would tie 2018/19 as his best overall regular season winning percentage.
