MVC Game 18

[tpskult]

So unless I'm mistaken, if SIU loses and we and Drake both win, we would get the 2-seed, and then SIU would be 3 and Drake would be 4 correct?

If Southern Illinois loses and Illinois State wins, I don’t think it really matters what Drake does, Illinois State would get the #2 seed. All three teams split their games, and Illinois State would have the best RBI.

Updated RPI as of today.

What website/report does the Valley use for RPI tiebreaker?

Collegiate Basketball News has ISU at 85 and SIU at 90 today.

I believe.

With a 34 RPI, LUC should get an at large bid. They earned it, they deserve it.

But probably won't get it.

Look at line 18 of the chart above. That's if Drake wins.

I agree, but we can spoil that RPI this Saturday.

What tiebreaker are they using if Illinois State/Southern Illinois/Drake all end up 11-7 that Illinois State would not get the #2 seed?
Head-to-Head all split their games.
Illinois State RPI 85
Southern Illinois RPI 90
Drake RPI 138

What I pointed has ISU as the 2 seed.

My comment was to why does it matter what Drake does.

If we win and SIU wins and they lose it doesn't. They won't be tied with us then.

The question was about if Drake, us and SIU won.

That’s what I was saying. “If ISU wins & SIU loses, it does not matter what Drake does”. ISU is the #2 seed.

Giant game for them. Another T100 win would put them at probably RPI 32 or so. Of course, it might knock ISU out of T100.

We will probably move up a bit, if anything. A potential road loss to a top 35 RPI team isnt going to cost us 12 spots.

Line opens up at Loyola -12.5.
