The Notre Dame vs Marquette game will be streaming online for free http://www.und.com/sports/m-soccer/spec-rel/102312aab.html

The Northwestern vs Northern Illinios game might be free as well http://www.nusports.com/allaccess/?media=326901

It would be great if NIU beats Northwestern, they need it bad.

But what about ND being a threat to us for a top four seed???

ND is/was #4 in the RPI - if they win out, they will get a top 4 seed by all rights.

I think the biggest help for us this week was UConn losing - as long as UCLA and Georgetown aren't able to leapfrog us, we should end up in the top 4 as long as we continue to take care of business.

I would personally rather see ND win out, take down Marquette again, as well as Georgetown and Louisville in the Big East tourney. This should put them high in the top 4, but eliminate our competition and leave us in the top 4 as well.

The MAC tourney does us no favors with RPI, so I hope that the teams already at the top continue winning, and take care of our slight drop. I predict a 4 seed for us right now.

The selection committee doesn't have to follow the RPI for seeding and we've earned a lot of respect with our scheduling.

Although Western Michigan's RPI is currently 112, their winning percentage will improve our SOS.

It would help if we play Western Michigan and West Virginia in the MAC tournament.

The MAC tournament could be a disaster for the MAC. WVU and Western Michigan are on the fringe of missing it while a team with NIU's record could make it? We are only going to end up with one team In the NCAA tournament unless Akron loses in the MAC tourney

West Virginia needs to win at BG next Saturday to get in.

Akron is the only team with an assured spot in the semis

N. Illinois 3-1-1

W. VA and BGSU 3-2-1
