It's going to take a lot of luck but I think we could see 2 MVC teams receive a National Seed.

1) The Valley must stay at #5
2) MSU must win out
3) DBU must stay at #1 in the RPI and go 3-1 this week

Like I said, a lot of luck and probably need the likes of Vandy, Illinois, Florida State, and other to trip up in their conference tourneys. FSU losing 3 to Clemson this weekend will help the Bears.

and to add to that, Bradley really needs to have a good tourney to get an at large bid, their RPI is at 22 right now, but they've lost 5 straight games. Need to show up in Wichita and play well.

Being #5 in the RPI is great and all, but at the end of the day I could see the NCAA selection committee leaving the Braves out because they're a "mid major"

Dallas Baptist vs. Indiana State - loser goes home, winner plays Bradley later today

WSU vs. SIU - loser goes home, winner gets Missouri State in the nightcap

MO State now owns the nation's longest active winning streak at 14.

D1Baseball has TCU, DBU, and MO State has the 3 candidates for the last National Seed. According to them, if MO State can find a way to win the conference tournament they should wrap it up as TCU went 0-2 and DBU has been knocked out of the top RPI spot and lost the season series to MO State.
