MVFC Playoff Outlook
Penguin Nation:
One writer lists YSU as "looking good" for the playoffs, along with NDSU and ISUr.

"The Penguins need to beat South Dakota and get one win in their final three games (at Illinois State, vs. Indiana State, at North Dakota State) to feel really good."
Penguin Nation:
After today's results:
Ticket punched:
NDSU 5-0 / 8-0
Likely in:
ISUr 4-1 / 7-1 (in even if loses to YSU next week..finishes with SD and WIU)
YSU 4-1 / 7-2 (ISUb is a must win game)
Possibly in:
SDSU 2-3 / 5-4 (beat ISUb next week and they are likely in)
ISUb 3-2 / 6-3 (has SDSU and WIU and YSU left....must beat either SDSU or YSU...assuming a WIU win)
Doubtful:
UNI 3-2 / 5-4 (live another day...but have NDSU next)
SIU 2-3 / 5-4
Out:
MO St. 1-4 / 4-5
WIU 1-4 / 3-6
SD 0-5 / 2-7
penguinpower:
I think UNI will beat the Bison.
Spiderlegs:
UNI beats the Bison and we have the possibility that both YSU and UNI are 8-4. It's at this point the weenie games start to haunt us. If I were on the selection committee, I'd then take UNI over YSU based on UNI's strong showing in two D-I games, and YSU makes the playoffs only if selection committee agrees to take 4 teams from the MVFC. (The verdict is still out on that one.) Best case scenario for YSU is either UNI loses to Bisons and/or YSU beats Illinois St. as well as Indiana St.
Penguin Nation:
After today's results:
Ticket punched:
NDSU 5-1 / 9-1
ISUr 5-1 / 8-1
Likely in:
UNI 4-2 / 6-4 (back to back wins over ISUr and NDSU...que bueno!...SIU and MIzz ST wont stop em)
Possibly in:
YSU 4-2/7-3 (need one more win....its that simple)
SDSU 3-3 / 6-4 (should win out vs SIU and USD)
ISUb 3-3 / 6-4 (needs to win out)
Doubtful:
SIU 3-3 / 6-4 (hanging on a microscopic thread...finishes vs UNI and ISUr)
Out:
WIU 2-4 / 4-6
MO St 1-5 / 4-6
SD 0-6 / 2-8
