Losing to the Aces (I hate Colt Ryan more than any other MVC player in recent memory), has one beneficial effect. It will almost certainly hurt the Shockers seeding, making them at best an 8-9 seed.
How is this good, you ask? The Shockers are 4-0 in games they should have lost... and have lost 6 games to teams they should have beaten. If you are the Shockers, you probably don't want to face a team like Bucknell or Belmont in your first round.
Losing to the Aces means the Shockers will be an underdog if they get into the tournament. Honestly, I've seen the way this team plays when they are the underdog, and I've seen the way they play when they are favored. I know which I want to see.
That said, they need to go on a nice winning streak to end the season with Valley regular season and tournament titles.
