2025-26 Season

[Juice Stand]

Tough loss last night, but probably expected by most of us. The loss drops us to sole possession of 8th place, so we're still in as of today with two home games against EMU and Central Mich coming up.

- Ohio lost, dropping them to 5-5 and a full game ahead of us in 5th place. We get them in our finale.
- In a tie for 6th are Buffalo and Bowling Green, who played each other last night. We're 1/2 game behind and play them both again. Buffalo at home, BG on the road.
- Ball St is just behind us, but we own the tiebreaker and I don't see them keeping up.
- EMU has dropped to 10th place and is scuffling.

I mention all this to say that if we stay the course, I think we're safely in the 8-team field. If we beat EMU and CMU in this next stretch, that'll give us some breathing room, and there's a path to getting as high as 5th, maybe even 4th if we go on a tear and Toledo falls apart (unlikely). The top 3 is out of reach (9-0 Miami, 8-1 Akron, 7-2 Kent).

Hope so, a few of us that I know already have direct flights (Jet Blue from Logan) and rooms booked. Will use Logan Express out of Framingham for $9.

Looking at the remaining conference schedule I feel like 10-8 is what we will finish - and that's assuming we lose to Akron and Miami. That last game vs Ohio could be for 5th place. Ohio plays Miami twice, @Buffalo here to end the season - they also play Toledo at home - I see them 4-4 and possibly 3-5.

Anyone know how the tie-breakers work? Spots 4-8 are separated by 1 game - of those 5 teams I really think we're the best of the 5 and have a shot at 4th place. Tie-breakers will most certainly come into play to determine the seeding.
