Give me Kowalchoke any day of the week. Pinky and Boals have both shown the ability to win in March.

Not looking past Eastern or Western @ 11am on a Thursday.   BTW. If there is a betting scandal with EMU, would hope whoever is investigating finds out truth before they take a spot in Cleveland

I'm sure that's being duly investigated without any bias, just like Bates' scratched out serial number handgun case.

Yes but all they control is their ability to lose. I'm fine with them as a first round opponent. 😂

ESPN has a article listing who will win each of the 31 conference tournaments.

For those who don't have ESPN+, here is the snippet for the MAC.

- Ohio locks up the #3 seed with a win over Toledo. They could drop as low as #6 with a loss. 

- Kent State only gets to #3 if Ohio loses and they win. I can't find a scenario otherwise where they aren't #4 or #5. 

- BGSU, Western Michigan, Ball State, and Central Michigan could all land at #8.

Someone check my work, but I think CMU is #8 unless they lose to NIU.

Yep if CMU wins looks like they're locked in the #8 seed. WMU/BGSU is effectively an elimination game for the 7 seed (Western could sneak up to a six) and the only way Ball St gets in is with a CMU loss. Seeds 3-6 are all still up in the air, EMU, Kent or Ohio can get the three, best Toledo can do is the four. Looking very likely it's 3. Ohio, 4. Kent, 5. Toledo and 6. EMU (but they can finish anywhere from 3rd to 7th). Still pretty open.

One thing I'll say for CMU is they can hang around in games. 

 

3 point loss vs Akron

2 point loss both times vs Ohio

6 point loss vs Miami

2 point loss at Toledo

 

They also have several close wins over lesser teams. 

 

Jarusevicius has been playing really well for them and was the guy who carried them in their close loss against us, with 32 points and 10 rebounds.
