1 seed with loss to Montana?

I know that everyone has been saying it comes down to the Montana game, but is there still a chance that it doesn't? I hope this makes sense so I will do my best to explain, but I think Weber still has a chance of hosting the tourney even with a loss. Ok here it goes.
Currently Weber and Montana remain tied for first in the Big Sky conference. By rules the tiebreaker is head to head, then record to the next highest team in to decide the tiebreaker correct? Now I'm not saying this will happen, but if Montana State were able to pull there heads out of there @ss and win Montana, that would leave Montana at a 14-2 record when all is said and done (assuming they beat Weber on Tuesday). That leaves Weber at a 14-2 record as well giving Montana the tiebreaker due to Idaho State.

Buttttttttttt, what if Montana State was able to win the game at home vs NAU (very likely) that would leave them at a 8-8 conference record. Likewise, Idaho State still has two games remaining (Sac St, and @EWU). If they were to lose one of those games (likely @EWU where EWU just beat Idaho St. at Idaho st yesterday) that leaves Idaho St at a 8-8 record as well. Would Montana St. hold the tiebreaker over Idaho State? It would come down to the second tiebreaker technically, but would they count Montana St ahead of Idaho St, or Idaho St. ahead of Montana St? Because Montana St would be 1-1 vs Montana, but 0-2 vs us. Idaho st would be 1-1 vs us, but 0-2 vs Montana so I'm not sure how the tiebreaker would go. Anyone know?

Weber 14-2
Montana 14-2
Montana St 8-8
Idaho St 8-8

Or in a more extreme case if Idaho St. were to lose both remaining games, then Montana St. would hold a 8-8 record to Idaho States 7-9 record giving us the tiebreaker over Montana correct?
 
I realize non of the scenerios will probably happen, but it's something fun to watch out for if it's possible before next Tuesdays game.
 
currently who is in and who is out:

unc and msu are still alive for the final spot. msu is done IF it loses both of its games, unc beats psu and ewu n finishes ahead of psu in the standings.

can msu win either remaining game?

:thefan:

they have lost 7 in a row but before that they had won 6 of 7.

But, hypothetically speaking there is still a .001% chance we wouldn't have to win in Montana correct? :-D

you are probably correct. but i dont want to get injured trying to think about it too much.

what i would like to know is if the bobs dont make the big sky tourney would that be a big sky record? they started out 6-2 and then would lose the final 8.
 
I agree, Montana should clean the floor with Montana State they have been looking pathetic as of lately. I was just thinking it's a rivalry game, and maybe Montana is overlooking Montana St. in anticipation for the big meeting with us.

I'm sure it will, 7-8 wins usually gets you in the tourney so to finish out 0-8 would be a pretty epic collapse.
 
Holy cow I tried going through all the different scenarios in my head and made myself dizzy


Why's it all spinning make it stop :help:
