They need to take care of business at home vs. UNI and MSU and at Drake. All winnable games esp if Simons is out.

I would say 3-2 is definitely possible if not likely then. With how UNI seems to play and the fact that Drake is Drake (by which I mean, it's the team that UNI has handled easily twice this season so it is surprising to think they are tied in the standings with us). Having the Bears and Jays at home will at least help.

I think the birds finish no worse than 9-9. I think they will take care of business against Drake (without Simons) and @ Bradley.

If we can manage to win 1 of @UNI, @In St. or vs. WSU, which I think is possible, that should put us in a decent position for the conference tourney at 10-8. If we win 2 of those, then I think we would likely be your 3rd place team.

I certainly like our chance to avoid Thursday as well with an outside chance of a 3 seed considering our success against MSU.

Yea I could see us both going 10-8, tied for 3rd, and the Birds get the tie breaker via the season sweep.

Hey all! The probability analysis will be back. With 25 conference games remaining, there are actually 33,554,432 (2^25) different outcomes for the rest of the conference season. When we get down to 15 games left, that number becomes much more manageable for my spreadsheet (32,768 scenarios). So definitely be looking for the colored charts next Monday!

Dang! That is a load.

Y'all have played so many close games this season, I imagine CU, UNI and MSU are at least somewhat apprehensive. They know, it will not be easy.
