Champs or Co-Champs?

If MSU and WSU tie at the end of the year, the second tie breaker is SOS, which WSU would win for the tournament seeding. Is that also the determinant for conference champion? Or would they be co-champions?

Co-champs. They can both hang a banner.

That's the best case scenario for at-large possibilities. If there are still any.

No the best case scenario for atlarge purposes is not a tie. If they tie, that means one lost the game before the championship and then beat the other. Both teams losing one more game before the tournament equals a one bid league.

Ex. Creighton defeats WSU then WSU beats MSU to create a tie.

If MSU lost to SIU and then beat the Shox (sweeping them) would Wichita State still be able to hang a banner?

Yes, it only matters who you lose to for seeding purposes in the tournament.

Best case scenario is for MSU to win out until Sunday in STL.

For some reason I think you would be more comfortable with a different scenario. 8-)

Of course. But we were talking multi bids for the Valley, no?
