I think the answer is YES!!! A couple of obvious things need to happen first. First, we must WIN OUT by beating MSU (at home this Thursday), Montana (at home this Saturday), Idaho St. (road 03/05), Weber St. (road 03/07).
Next, Sac St. needs to lose at least one game in their remaining 3 games and I think they will. They play AT PSU on 02/28 and PSU is playing well right now. PSU just beat us and they are currently on a three game winning streak with some momentum. Plus, PSU only lost to Sac St. by 4 points two weeks ago AT Sac St. They will be playing AT PSU next Saturday. Even if Sac wins at PSU, I don't believe they're out of the woods. They play AT Southern Utah who recently beat a decent Idaho team and also gave EWU a run for their money. Let's say Sac wins both of those road games. I still think their toughest test will be their last game of the year AT Northern Arizona who might be the hottest team in the league right now winning 7 out of their last 8. I don't think Sac St. comes out of NAU with a win.
NAU has one more loss than us so if we win out we don't have to worry about them and if we take care of the GRIZ at home Saturday that will eliminate them from hosting. Not sure how the tie-breaker would go if Sac and EWU both win out.
All that being said, WE NEED TO WIN OUT and I believe we will host the Big Sky Tourney :nod: . Huge homestand this week. I love when Montana comes to town!!! This is going to be an exciting Big Sky finish. I love this time of year! Anything can happen!!!
