ISU-Birds @ ISU-Trees game is going to be an important one for both teams. The winner, more-than-likely, punches their ticket to the playoffs while the other will be sweating it out on selection day.

If ISU-R loses, their only game left is @NDSU. They need to win or else beat NDSU. One more win and they're in.

If ISU-B loses, their only game left is @YSU. They technically haven't hit 7 D-1 wins yet because of a D-2 game.

Whoever wins is in like you said.

Re: 11/3/12 in the MVFC

Jacks have to win 1 of the last 2 to get in. That would assure the Jackrabbits of nothing worse than a tie for 2nd in the MVFC. Those making projections seem to think that will earn SDSU a home game, I don't know about that. Final week schedule includes 3 relevant games, will the MVFC get 4 in the playoffs? If Ind. St. beats YSU and the Jacks win at least 1 of the last 2 there will be 4 teams with 8 wins. Keep in mind, Ind St. has wins over Quincy and Drake. I think they are on the outside looking in regardless of what happens.

Final week schedule:

Indiana State at Youngstown State * ESPN3 1:00 p.m.
North Dakota State at Illinois State * NBC North Dakota 1:00 p.m.
South Dakota at South Dakota State * Midco Sports Net 2:00 p.m.
Western Illinois at Southern Illinois * Carbondale, Ill. 2:00 p.m.
Missouri State at Northern Iowa * Cedar Falls, Iowa 6:00 p.m.
