Another good performance from UNI, they are playing some great basketball right now.

It would be very interesting if both the Shockers and Panthers win out. I assume UNI has the SoS tiebreaker on the Jays?

Yes. If I am not mistaken, UNI has the SOS tiebreaker over everyone.

Over every team except ISUb...which we lose head to head with too...

Thanks for the responses.

Creighton as a 3 seed, this year of all years would be...wow.

Well Creighton still has to lose a conference game, and we would have to win our last 2.

Nice win for UNI. You are playing very well. I actually like UNI or ISUr in arch madness.

Looks like we'll be in the Thurs game. Not unexpected. I still really like our young players and our future.

Marshall looks to be a great player in the making. And I love that fade he is rockin.

All of a sudden, UNI finds themselves on the verge of bubble talk. They need this win and many more to keep things going. They have the schedule to win out and give themselves a chance in STL to get on the bubble.

No big wins out of conference to help them except St. Mary's. They missed their chance 4 times.
I could possibly see a 12-6 Valley record, a B'busters win, and 2 wins in St. Louis with a close game in the Championship game as getting them on the bubble.
The selection committee DOES look at the last 10 games, and if UNI were to get a 10-game win streak at the end of the season, that would get them some consideration at least, and may get them as the last 4 in.
They are making a run similar to Bradley in '05-'06, so if the Braves made it then (though the league was stronger then), no reason UNI shouldn't get consideration.

Checking UNI's RPI, it's still holding at 70. That's barely NIT eligible.

The at-large ship has sailed for the Panthers. It sailed a while ago. There is no way a 12-loss team from the Valley is getting an at-large. Not to mention in the other thread TAS pointed out they crapped the bed against every decent team they played away from home. They got swept by Indiana State, and even worse, Evansville. They have three home wins over St. Mary's, WSU, and Creighton.

The damage is already done.
