-If Ball State wins and Buffalo loses, Cardinals jump to fourth in MAC. If the situation is reversed, Ball State falls to fifth.
- If Ball State wins, Buffalo loses and NIU loses, Cardinals tie Huskies for third and MAC West title.
This is #MACtion

Miami beat CMU on Thursday night and Ohio beat Kent State last night. Right now it would be a Monday night meeting between #5 Ball State and #12 Miami.
Win today and we will have a 2 game lead over Kent State with 2 games to go and we own the head-to-head tie-breaker over them. We will be guaranteed no worse than the #5 seed. Everyone else is already too far back except Toledo and Ohio and they can only tie us. We own the tie-breaker over Ohio and if we beat Toledo today they will be 4 games behind us.
Miami is in a death struggle with Western Michigan for the #12 seed. Western beat Miami head-to-head so they own that tie breaker.

Do we want to play Miami in the first round AGAIN? That’s bad voodoo.

The four away teams for the first Monday of the MAC Tournament are now set. Eastern Michigan, Central Michigan, Western Michigan, and Miami who is now given the name Southern Michigan to continue the pattern.
Actually this isn't true yet. My spread sheet was messed up. We can still call Miami Southern Michigan. I blame the pickles at Tony Packos.

If I'm reading the tie-breakers correctly, it's almost certainly going to come down to the final game at Northern as to whether or not BSU gets top 4 and a bye. With Central at Muncie, and them having lost 8 in a row, surely it's not possible that..... (Sherman tails off, falls silent, looks at floor).

Come on Sherm after Miami & WMU sweep the 1 & 2 teams today. We know anyone can win any game. I would like to play NIU with German out for a half though.

Well Western beat Northern so we are right where we were at the start of the day. Opportunity missed.

Winner of BSU at NIU game on Friday wins the MAC West and gets a bye to Cleveland. Buffalo holds the tie-breaker against us so if we win and Buffalo wins they are #3 and we are #4. If we win and they lose we are #3. If we lose we are #5.
Akron now holds a 1 game lead over BG. If we are #5 and win on Monday night we'd most likely face Akron in Cleveland. We need to win Friday.

If we win and they lose we are #3. If we lose we are #5. From Buffalos twitter site UB win | Ball St. win: This enters a three way tiebreaker between UB/Ball/NIU where combined H2H record is the tiebreaker. Ends up with Ball St. in the 3 seed, NIU in the 4 seed, UB in the 5 seed. Not sure which one would be correct |
