Is seeding based solely on win percentage? Do we have a chance at the #2 seed still?
Mathematically we could get a #1 seed (but it's not going to happen). If we win out and Toledo wins just 1 of 3 we'd have a better % (.750 vs. .737) For #2 seed let's assume we'll lose one game the rest of the way. That would put our % at .688. Akron would have to lose all 3 of its games for a lower %. They have three tough games, but I don't anticipate they are going to shoot like they did yesterday the rest of the season. I think it was partially a case of over confidence since they beat us by 20 at Kron and they saw our two best players were out. Don't get me wrong. OUr guys played their butts off and deserved to win. Then there's Cant. If they split their remaining games (and of course one of our wins is against them), they would come in at .684, slightly lower than OUr .688.
And in the long run, does it really matter? Seeding just sets up who we play. Toledo is very good but they have lost 3 conference games. And is there really that much difference between the top 8 teams? Looking at the bottom 4, Balls is definitely the bottom feeder, but we don't have a reasonable chance to play them. Fiami has gotten better as the season has gone on. BG was picked to win the conference so the talent is there. And the Beefs are the inconsistent team they always seem to be . . . until it's tournament time.
