Now that we're 3/4 of the way to having the final 4, how does the NCAA reseed the semis? By record alone, or do they use a more complex formula (like the one used to seed the playoff field in the first place)? What team is Shepherd most likely to play?

Assuming that Mines holds on to win, I would think Sheperd would have to go to Ferris in the final four. Ferris was the number 1 team in every poll at the end of the regular season and would more than likely be the #1 seed of the remaining teams. With 3 of the #1 seeds advancing, Shepherd would be considered the new 4th seed by default.
So Shepherd at Ferris State in one semifinal, Valdosta vs Mines in the other.

Purely a guess but given that all #1 seeds are in they'll fall back on SOS and peek at the rankings and of course travel expenditures. I don't have the SOS ratings but the longest trip would be CSM to/from KUTZ at 1705 miles... unlikely. The shortest trip is FSU to/from KUTZ at 732 miles... likely. Next closest is KUTZ to/from VSU at 916 miles...also likely. In between we have FSU to/from VSU at 1071 miles... possible. Finally FSU to/from CSM....also possible. My crazy, unbiased, unscientific guess is CSM @ VSU and KUTZ @ FSU.
