We are tied with the Bison for the last playoff spot. They got the Jacks and we got the Dons to close out the season. If we end up tied with the Bison, the Bison have the tiebreaker advantage by taking 4 of the 6 games against us. The Jacks still have a chance to pick up the #1 seed ahead of Omaha, so I dont expect them to roll over and play dead against their Buds to the north.

Tounament host ORU is 3rd place and could also be left out in the cold depending on how things unfold next weekend.
Embrace the pace of the race.

Omaha could possibly be hosting the conference tournament next year. I wonder if they would consider using the Creighton home park, also the home of the NCAA College World Series.

Omaha plays in a city-owned park not quite as nice. :lol:
