It would appear that the four teams directly in front of us (SIU, UNI, MSU, BU) have the toughest remaining schedules, with Bradley's probably the worst. To move into 6th place, and out of Thursday night, we need to pass three of them. It would be very difficult to pass them all, as inter-competition assures some wins for these teams. We play these teams 5 times, with 4 of those games at home, giving us a hand in our own fate.
Who knows if this team is capable of getting this thing turned around, but if they are to have any shot at avoiding the play-in round, I think it has to start tonight.
