Message: [QUOTE="UConn_Top_Dog, post: 3469046, member: 2285"] Why does it matter that WSU wins for us to have a chance at the 5 seed? I can see why Memphis has to lose because then we would both be 1-1 vs Houston and would give Memphis the same record as us. Memphis is 1-1 vs WSU; we are 0-1 vs WSU. Memphis is 0-1 vs Tulsa; we are 1-1 vs Tulsa. We win out there because we beat the better team. If WSU loses they would be 0-2 vs Tulsa, which would make us the only team out of the three teams to beat Tulsa. And furthermore, if Memphis and WSU lose today and we win, that would make for a 3 way tie for 4th place; since WSU is 0-2 vs Houston, Memphis wins out there because they are 1-1 vs Houston making Memphis the 5 seed and WSU the 6 seed. By that logic, shouldn’t WSU and Memphis both have to lose today for us to get the 4 seed, not the 5 seed? [/QUOTE]
