So looking at it, the Valley has 4 teams fighting for 3 spots in the playoffs.
UND is in the best shape with zero losses, but still some tough road trips to Fargo and Normal left and a tricky one in Youngstown.
NDSU has a loss to SIU, but get their tough games (UND, SDSU) at home. Have UNI on the road, who would love to be a spoiler
SDSU has a loss to UND, and have two tough trips to Carbondale and Fargo coming up, and get ISU red at home
SIU has a loss to UND, they might have the easiest path after SDSU next week. Only a tough trip to Normal left.
WIU, ISU Red and YSU are out. USD is on the brink. I think UNI should be in the out category as well but I will be nice and keep them on the brink. Mo State... 2-4 overall but 2-1 in conference play. I would think that one more loss would put them in the out category.
And the top 4 (UND/NDSU) and (SIU/SDSU) play next week!
