    Win at Drake, I think we have to be the 1 seed. With Wichita's poor road record there is no way they can hold a candle to our tie breaker points. Magic number for the title, 1.

      Wichita State just saw any realistic chance of being an at-large end.

              Anyone know approx how much an extra team in the NCAA tourney means to each team in the Valley financially?

                We have to hope this doesn't knock Wichita State out of the RPI Top 50 because then that leaves UNI with only one Top 50 RPI win. While it's nice to get closer to another MVC championship, this loss potentially does hurt UNI and the MVC long-term.

                  their RPI will plummet...i'd guess near 65-70.

                    On second thought I'm guessing you're probably in the neighborhood. If Siena dropped 10+ beating Marist, then Wichita State will drop 20+. I hope we're wrong, but I don't think so.

                        With the WSU loss tonight, that will take away from one of our top 50 rpi wins and add another loss to a team outside the top 50 in the rpi. It also puts added pressure on UNI to perform well over these last 6 games, that bracketbuster with ODU just got a little more important as far as UNI's at-large chances/seeding go, of course we could just win out and take the tournament in STL and not have to worry at all :-)

                            The Lord reigns, let the earth be glad; let the distant shores rejoice, clouds and thick darkness surround Him; righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne. Fire goes before Him, and consumes his foes on every side; His lightning lights up the world; the earth sees and trembles; the mountains melt like wax before the Lord of all the earth. The heavens proclaim His righteousness and all peoples will see His glory.

                                Not so fast.

                                WSU or anyone else could still win the MVC Tourney and UNI would get their at-large.
                                Winning is more fun than losing.
