2012 - '13 MVC Non-Conf. schedules

[CaliRdBrd]

CMon guys. If UNI goes 0-3 in their tournament but defeats UNLV, Iowa, George Mason, St. Mary's and splits with Creighton they'd get in. No doubt as long as they take care of their other business.

hahahaha...you must be confusing us with the ACC, where 8-8 gets you a bid. This is the MVC, a conference where 25 wins gets you an NIT berth.

If UNI goes 13-5 in MVC and gets to 22 wins before STL with a SOS in the top 10 nationally and the wins I mentioned, they'll get in.

Absolutely, not true. Not if you schedule up.

Sorry, it's going to take me some time on that one...still recovering from the Jank era.

Every team but Northern Colorado and George Mason played in a post-season tourney last year, and Mason finished with an 84 RPI but was by-passed for the NIT and elected not to play in the other tourneys. All of the Battle 4 Atlantis possible opponents were NCAA or NIT participants last year. Wartburg is a D-III 15 minutes from Cedar Falls, cheaper than a MEAC or SWAC and no damage to the RPI.

I agree. This could be the best non conference schedule a Valley team has had in years. Now we just have to win some of them.

MSU's schedule is pretty solid, although I have to admit that I've never even heard of any of the first three schools listed.
