I don’t even think UB needs to win the tiebreaker game against Kent State (to put themselves ahead of UT), they just need that win in the column. With the new tournament format, the difference between #1 and #4 seeding is minimal so clinching the top two seeds is not nearly as important as it used to be.
Of course, I’d love to see UB win out and watch Ohio lose to a subpar team in order to win the regular season championship, but the chances of that don’t look amazing right now.
On the women’s side, Fair and Hemphill are on pace to break the scoring record and rebounding record (both held by Kourtney Brown) in the semifinals. The game next weekend could be Coach Jack’s final game in Buffalo.
