Re: POSTPONED: Bulldogs, Blue Raiders to Play Saturday-Sunday
If games are canceled, it seems like Western Kentucky and North Texas benefit the most. They are both leading the divisions, and neither of them have played any of the more difficult teams besides LaTech. It's not just they've played fewer games, they played easier opponents AND fewer games.
Re: POSTPONED: Bulldogs, Blue Raiders to Play Saturday-Sunday

Exactly. I hope there is another round for us and them.... We could still finish first in the West, if North Texas has to play a tough team and we win out.

UAB's loss yesterday eliminated the scenario where Tech could finish 3rd in the West and not get a first round bye if it sweeps Rice and both UAB and North Texas play their remaining four games.
One more UAB loss at either UTSA or at North Texas would give the Blazers five losses.
North Texas would need to lose two at Marshall or vs UAB to fall below a .750 percentage.

ODU is in the East. Tech is in the West. Seeds are determined by the divisional standings.
Top 2 from each division get byes. Bottom team from each division misses the tournament.
First round parings are #3E vs #6W, #4E vs #5W, #5E vs #4W, and #6E vs #3W.

I'm suspicious as to whether or not the conference tournament will be played.

Re: POSTPONED: Bulldogs, Blue Raiders to Play Saturday-Sunday
If no tournament, how will CUAB figure it out to make UAB the Conference rep for NCAA?:)

UAB has to win four more games and WKU would need to lose two of four so UAB would have the best overall conference record. If UAB wins four and WKU misses another game, that could also do it since that would give WKU five or more fewer conference games than UAB.
