Win both games and get the 7 seed. SJU is now mailing it in with blowout losses to DePaul and Creighton.
Win both and they are the sixth seed at worst.
Right. But in a 3 way tie with Creighton and Providence then the tiebreaker is "combined record against teams that you are tied with." We would be 3-1 (2-0 vs PC and 1-1 vs. CU) which would be better than CU or PC.
Same thing if you substitute Butler for Providence, or make it a 4 way tie if that's even possible (haven't looked at all potential outcomes).
So, we lose a head to head tiebreaker with Creighton, but we pass them if here are any 3+ team ties.
