Re: Regional Rankings 2018

Ok. We have all the information we need. I'll give it a shot:
1. Ferris
2. Bellarmine
3. Findlay
4. Lake Superior State
5 Hillsdale
6. Drury
7. Indianapolis
8. Ohio Dominican

not saying it will happen but i think truman deserves 7th. they did beat indy @indy. either way it means BU has to play a team they just beat

Re: Regional Rankings 2018

Kudos to you guys for the in-depth analysis in trying to determine the regional rankings however I highly doubt the committee scrutinizes to this extent in making their determination.

I agree they likely don't. But my scrutinizing has me putting Truman in 7th. Indy has been above Truman for awhile so probably will get it instead. I just think Truman deserves it.

Re: Regional Rankings 2018

Totally agree. While it can be fun to read the in-depth analyses on this board, I would be shocked if the selection committee does anything close to the over-analysis seen here.

There's no way BU jumps all the way from 3rd to 1st at this point. MAYBE if Ferris had lost in 1st round of their tourney, but not since they got to their championship game.

Re: Regional Rankings 2018

If the committee pays attention to conference tourneys(and that's a big if) I think BU gets No. 1 if they beat Truman and Ferris loses. For one, Ferris would be losing on their home floor and BU would have won on a neutral floor, beating two ranked teams in a row. BU would have seen a couple more wins over ranked teams than Ferris. Saying that I'm kinda of think the committee has made up its mind all ready so Ferris may have it regardless of the outcome of today's games.

If BU wins and Ferris losses, BU is #1, no ifs, buts, or maybes. If Ferris wins, they are #1, no ifs, buts, or maybes.

Re: Regional Rankings 2018

If Ferris lost by 30 they don't lose nr 1 seed. Bellarmine at 25-2 and a bad loss to parkside won't overtake Ferris at 30-2 and 2 losses to L Sup St. Drury could exchange with Hillsdale but I agree with the above. Only difference is Indy. Truman will get the 7th seed instead. Both at 19-9. Truman hasn't lost to a sub 500 team. Indy lost to 3 of them. The 9 losses for Truman come from a combined 175-72. Indys are from 154-88. Truman beat Indy. Truman also beat Lewis who beat Indy. Indy beating Bellarmine is its only real plus. Ashland was also but with 11 losses and out of the regional, not so much any more. Haven't looked too deep into Ohio's record but at 21-10, they probably won't jump Truman or Indy. So only change for me is Truman in 7th.

Re: Regional Rankings 2018

Most likely? Ferris, Bellarmine, Findlay, Lake State, Hillsdale, Drury, Indianapolis, Ohio Dominican. Barring upsets rest of the way?

Re: Regional Rankings 2018

Drury loses to Truman State, 68-67. How damaging if at all for Drury?

Re: Regional Rankings 2018

More damaging for USI's slim remaining hope, I think. Drury isn't likely to be knocked totally out from #6 having beaten another ranked team before falling.
