  • Summit League Predictions

    I thought it might be interesting and fun to have a prognosticators comptetion for the Summit League Tournament like we did for football. So here goes for anyone and everyone interested.

    The predictions for the first round games must be in by midnight Friday night.

    Second round predictions must be in by noon on Monday.

    Third round predictions must be in by noon on Tuesday.

    Since I am volunteering at the tourney, I won't send out further reminders for each round since the time between rounds is so limited. So you will be responsible for seeing who is playing and submitting your picks. I also won't post all of the predictions in tabular form for the same reason but will try to get the "standings" of the predictors out as soon as possible after each round of games.

    Make your predictions by posting on this thread. (Be sure to make it clear which are your women's picks and which are you men's since there could be games between the same schools on both sides in a given round. Good luck and have fun.

    Here are the first round games:

    Women's Schedule

    G1: No 1 SDSU versus No 8 Oral Roberts

    G2: No 2 Oakland versus No 7 UMKC

    G3: No 4 IUPUI versus No 5 IPFW

    G4: No 3 NDSU versus No 6 Western Illinois




    Men’s Schedule


    G1: No. 1 North Dakota State vs. No. 8 Centenary, 6 p.m.

                  I don't generally play in prediction threads but . . .

                  IF SDSU's men beat Oral Roberts (which I think they're capable of) they become a VERY dangerous team for the remainder of the tournament.

                      All favorites win the first round.

                      MEN:
                      I don't think State beats ORU. I think ORU goes on to face NDSU Tuesday night and NDSU comes out on top by 9. I will root for the Bison and think they'll get a 12 seed.

                      WOMEN:
                      How can you pick against the State women? It's easy to say State will face Oakland but I think Biswomen come through to play Tuesday afternoon and State wins by 22 and grabs a 5 seed. (States closest game

                          So far there have been 10 Predictions. Here is the breakdown.

                          SDSU and OU are unanimous picks to win on the women's side. NDSU is a 8 to 2 pick over Western Illinois and IUPUI is a 7 to 3 pick over IPFW.


                          On the men's side, NDSU and Oakland are unanimous picks to win. SDSU is a 7 to 3 pick to upset ORU and there is a 6 to 4 split for IUPUI over Southern Utah.

                          Please have your picks in by Midnight Friday.

                            Jill Zaruba, NDSU is likely to NOT play, leaving Bison with only 6 schollie players. They will have a rough time making it out of round 1. However, they have shown GREAT ability to win, even in tough road trips. The Bison have performed very well for the limited roster they have.

                              To understate the matter, this is not good news for the Bison. I concur with your general assessment of the Bison given their current roster. A team to watch in the next few years.
