Rather have Belmont win this assuming SIU wins. Although if SIU loses, they deserve to drop down anyways
ISUblue up 10 at the 4-minute media TO
ISUblue up 54-37 at the half. The new OVC teams seem to be having a hard time to finish the season.
Bradley up 14 with 10 minutes left at Valpo
Evansville up 2 at home over UIC with 10 minutes left in the first half.
Drake up 1 early over ISUred
Belmont is on a 27-11 run in the 2nd half
ISUblue up 1 with 35 seconds left
Ben Sheppard hit 2 FT's with 2.5 seconds left. Belmont leads 89-88.
So a win on Sunday and SIU should automatically be playing on Friday. I'm not sure on what seed SIU would get if Indiana State and SIU won and Belmont lost. If it comes down to NET, Indiana State will have it.
Hackman has SIU with a 72% chance of finishing 3rd now

Also SIU will have the tiebreaker against Indiana State so all SIU needs to do is win and they're the 3 seed:

certainly possible somebody goes 14-6 and gets stuck on thursday. new world.
We do not have the tiebreaker against Indiana State. We finished 1-1 against them and they have a better NET. so if SIU and Indiana State win and Belmont loses SIU has 4th seed. We do have the round robin tiebreaker between the 3 teams so if SIU, Indiana State and Belmont all win or all lose we finish 3rd. If we finish only tied with Belmont we have the tiebreaker against them because we beat them in the only game we played them this year.Hackman has SIU with a 72% chance of finishing 3rd now

I think the tiebreaker before NET for a two way tie is going from top to bottom in the standings and comparing the records until someone has a better record against a like opponent. So SIU and Indiana State both went 1-1 against Drake and 0-2 against Bradley. The next team in line would be Belmont and SIU went 1-0 against them and Indiana State went 0-1.
Simple thing to do is just win and avoid Thursday sorry to state the obvious
