Forgot to post my prediction in here yesterday.- .Indianapolis (20-5) [1]
- Bellarmine (18-6) [3]
- Southern Indiana (20-5) [7]
- Truman (18-8) [2]
- UMSL (17-5) [6]
- Ferris State (22-5) [4]
- Grand Valley State (19-6) [5]
- Michigan Tech (17-8) [8]
- Findlay (17-6) [10]
- Southwest Baptist (14-7) [NR]
With Davenport's two losses, someone had to take their place in the top 10. Southwest Baptist gets the edge here over Drury due to wins over Bellarmine and USI.

Seems to me that the polls currently have BU lower than Ferris, UMSL, and USI. Wonder how the regional poll will look tomorrow.

Davenport loses in overtime to Northern Michigan. They might need to win the GLIAC tournament to make the regional.

Originally posted by schnautza View PostHaha I guess I could have said last last 7 games (since there are 3 left, that makes 10 at the end) but you guys would still have a losing record at 3-4 for that too! But seriously, I get they were close games, and it really does skew the record. But also remember that most of USI's losses were before they had their full team put together or had key players out for injury/illness, so do we ignore those too?

Originally posted by schnautza View PostWe've talked before about how games in the end of season can be weighted heavier for tournament selection. Here are results in last 10 games. I'm getting the impression that the committee has not considered this factor at all this season (I'm looking at you, BU).
1. UIndy 9-1 (road loss at Ill-Springfield)
2. Truman 7-3 (road losses at USI, UIndy, and Drury)
3. Bellarmine 4-6 (home losses vs Truman, SBU, and UIndy, road losses at Rockhurst, William Jewell, and Ill-Springfield)
4. Ferris State 7-3 (home loss vs Northwood, road losses at Ashland and Mich Tech)
5. Grand Valley 7-3 (home losses vs Ashland and Northern Mich, road loss at Northwood)
6. Missouri-St. Louis 7-3 (road losses at USI, Truman, and Quincy)
7. Southern Indiana 9-1 (road loss at UMSL)
8. Michigan Tech 6-4 (road losses at GVSU, Northwood, SVSU, and Ferris)
9. Davenport 6-4 (home losses vs Northern Mich, Mich Tech, and Ashland, road loss at Michigan Tech)
10. Findlay 9-1 (road loss at Walsh)
______
Drury 7-3 (road losses at Bellarmine, SBU, and UIndy)
Seriously though all those losses were either in overtime (Indy, WJ), 3 pt field goal in the last 6 seconds or less (Truman, Rockhurst, IUS, WJ again) or where BU had the lead in the last 2 minutes (all of them, except Indy which was tied.) In my opinion in 5 of those 6 games BU did not play that badly, the other team had their best game of the year. Now the loss to WJ was inexcusable, and based on that loss alone I would not be able to argue if BU was not selected. Not only is WJ a bad team but they did not even play particularly well. So BU lost to a bad team that was having a bad night even for them!Last edited by KnightStalker; 02-21-2020, 11:42 AM.

Last night probably just swapped the DUs in the region -- Drury in, Davenport out. This is the first year I can recall where, outside of earning the #1 seed to be able to host, there's really no care about seeding. I think the GLVC tourney will be the same way - - any team that gets in has just as good of chance to winning three games as the other seven teams in the field.
