      Outside of us winning, which I believe guarantees us of not playing Thursday, what are the scenarios we need to happen if we were to lose?

      I believe that an Illinois State loss at SIU keeps us out of Thursday, are there any other games of consequence that could affect us?

        If UNI loses on Saturday:
        -and Illinois State beats SIU = UNI 7 seed
        -and SIU beats Illinois State = UNI 6 seed (guaranteed if Loyola beats Bradley, based on NET tiebreaker over Illinois State if Bradley upsets Loyola)

          If UNI wins on Saturday:

          -and Illinois State beats SIU:
          ---and Drake beats MSU = UNI 3 seed
          ---and MSU beats Drake:
          ------and Loyola beats Bradley = UNI 4 seed (or 5 seed if Illinois State passes UNI in NET)
          ------and Bradley beats Loyola = UNI 5 seed

          -and SIU beats Illinois State:
          ---and Drake beats MSU = UNI 4 seed
          ---and MSU beats Drake:
          ------and Loyola beats Bradley = UNI 5 seed
          ------and Bradley beats Loyola = UNI 6 seed

          Clear as mud, right?!

            Funny thing is if we win, we probably want SIU to lose. Since we're 0-2 against them, it'll help us in the round robin tiebreaker. Especially if Missouri St loses. If that's the case... (I haven't looked at everything we'd need) we might end up in the 3 seed yet.

            edit - ok the 2nd post from Hacksaw beat me to it.
            To avoid confusion - my username is baseball (Cy Young award) related, NOT for the Cyclones.

              I'd prefer Missouri State in the first round. Make it happen Hacksaw....

              We're so in Dana Ford's head...

                I would prefer anyone but SIU.

                  I'm not scared of SIU. Both times we played them was before our re-found defensive focus and stretch of solid play. We are a lot different now.

                  I have also stated in the past I did not like that 3-6 late game on Friday but it may actually be a positive this year, especially if ISUr is the 7 seed coming out of Thursday. They could very well knock off whoever the 2 seed is and playing them for their third straight game would be a bonus if we have to come out of the 3-6.

                  Let's just win on Saturday, get some rest and focus on playing Friday-Saturday-Sunday the next week.

                    To avoid being in a tiebreaker with SIU, we want them to do the opposite of whatever we do. If we both lose we are #7. If we both win we can’t get to #3. It should make for some interesting scoreboard watching since we both play at 1:00pm.

                    We’ll know our Thursday fate by 3:00. If we avoid Thursday, we’ll wait until 7:00 to see how the rest shakes out.

                      Just to keep it simple, I want SIU to lose.
                      We can't get #2 no matter what. So just don't end #7. 3-6 is equal. Only #1 and #2 have the advantage of playing a Thursday (tired) team.

                        We want SIU to win. If they win, that guarantees us a top 6 seed.

                          Yes. My bad.

                            I might be wrong, but I thought I read somewhere that a #3 seed has never won Arch madness. If so, lets avoid that as well.

                              Or be the first to do it.
