The only thing that's an easy choice in #2-6 is that I will put UNI above ISUb every time. It could be 2 and 3 or 5 and 6 or 2 and 6, but UNI gets the nod from me based on my agreement with the above post.

I went with Indiana State for 6th. I think they overperformed last year more than any other team in the league, and they lost height and experience in the front court from last year. Coaching experience and strategy might keep them close to the 5th spot, but the talent deficit is significant.

I agree with ahunte1 about 2nd through 5th-- my guess is there will probably be one or more tiebreakers sorting out UNI, ISUr, UE, and Loyola in those spots. Before the Lynch transfer, I would have had ISUr an easy 2nd. Might as well pull 5 through 2 out of a hat. If any of those teams can rise up and sneak a home win over WSU, they've got a huge leg up.

I think it will be more important for those teams to not drop a turd @MSU. Those are the games that make the difference.
