UIC (8-10): #8 seed. Will host Milwaukee in first round. Milwaukee (8-13): #9 seed. UIC is not able to play in the HLT (I thought) so does that mean who ever gets them gets a bye? or the HLT going to change it up because of them and move their ranking to last? Actually, I think I recall that as part of having their eligibility restored, UIC won't host a game. If that's right, then it'll be UIC at Milwaukee in the first round. Same matchup, different venue.

Oakland beats CSU 65-57, will host IUPUI. After the game Kampe said they only have two rules, “we don’t lose to Detroit and we don’t lose on Senior Day.” OU sat Townsend who has been nursing an injury.
If YSU loses tonight to NKU, Titans will be the #6 seed and will host Green Bay in the first round. If YSU wins, UDM falls to the #7 seed and hosts Robert Morris on Tuesday night.
After seeing CSU and PFW up close these past couple of days, I think the Mastodons are the best team in the Horizon. Their winning streak continues while the Vikings’ ship is taking on some water.

Bummer to finish behind OU. I consider RMU a tougher matchup than Green Bay, and would prefer a quarterfinal matchup against NKU rather than Wright St, so I hope NKU takes care of business tonight against YSU.

What's frustrating is that I can't find anywhere if the HL intends to re-seed after each round. But I assume they will, as that's what was done in the past.
Final Bracket:
First Round #12 IUPUI (3-25, 1-16) @ #5 Oakland (19-11, 12-7) #11 Green Bay (5-24, 4-16) @ #6 Detroit (13-14, 10-7) #10 Robert Morris (7-23, 5-16) @ #7 Youngstown State (18-13, 12-9) *#8 UIC (13-15, 9-10) @ #9 Milwaukee (10-21, 8-14).
*Note UIC is ineligible to host.
Quarter Finals #5 Oakland (IUPUI) @ #4 Wright State (18-13, 15-7). #6 Detroit (Green Bay) @ #3 Northern Kentucky (18-11, 14-6) #7 Youngstown State (Robt. Morris) @ #2 Purdue-Fort Wayne (20-10, 15-6) #8 UIC/#9 Milwaukee @ @1 Cleveland State (19-9, 15-6).
At that point, after the Titans beat NKU, if the other seeding holds, the Titans, as the lowest remaining seed, would play Cleveland State in the semifinals in Indianapolis.

Commish, I'm not a lawyer but I started right at home. The Horizon womens' bracket is out, and they are re-seeding. So I think that's your answer I'll take the route in front of us. If we can't handle GB at home in a payback game, we don't deserve to move on. And even though we're probably gonna have to beat NKU 3 times in a season (and twice on the road) I'd rather go there than Wrong State. After what I saw today, I agree with Bob - let's avoid UPWPWEIO until the Championship Round.

Wright State also worries me more than NKU. Any way one looks at it, we gotta win and pull a couple upsets.

Every win matters. Beyond that, I think at our best we can beat any team in the conference. I wish we had Akec available but we still are capable.

Losing a tough game yesterday was a blessing in disguise..Let OU go to Wrong State..Having watched us play NKU @ Calihan on 2/18, we can handle the Norse in KY for the second time...Next having watched us beat CSU @ Calihan on 2/24, we will out run and gun the Vikings on a neutral court...Fort Wayne is the problem...

P.S. if we lose to the Bay, none of the above matters and we do not deserve to be in the conversation..

Ken Pom gives us a 84% chance to win tonight, 7% to win the whole HL
