My predictions...
MSU At UE
Drake @ Shox
Ill St. @ Bradley
UNI @ SIU
Creighton @ ISUb

Seeding would be

1- Shox

8- Indiana St.
9- So. Illinois

4-Illinois St.
5- UNI

3-Evansville
6- MO State

7- Drake
10- Bradley

2-Creighton

------------------------------

Of the 32 possibilities Evansville has 2 chances at a 3 seed, I believe they will get it.

It's interesting that Indiana State could be playing for the 3 seed in the final game of the year if they can win, but would be the 8 seed if they lost (if WSU, IlSt, UNI, and UE win)

If WSU and CU are considered locks before the tournament, I don't think they will have any friends in St. Louis after teams start losing. Most of us other teams will be rooting for a 3rd bid.

And that would be different for WSU than any other year in St Louis how? The Valley has done WSU no favors in St Louis. Marshall and the Shocks won't be forgetting that (see Booker Woodfox).

If CU or WSU loses before Sunday, that arena is going to look pretty darn empty on CBS.

I think WSU prefers a road type atmosphere anyways.
