Ok, tonight was a tough loss, but guess what, we lost to SDSU last year twice and pulled off the upset. As of right now we are the #7 seed, win out and we will stay the #7 seed and that gives us a chance. Go Pokes, Never Quit - sucks that you lost, but, I still believe this team can pull out a miracle.

Realistically if Wyoming were to win their final two games there is a good chance they could still get the 6th seed.
UNLV also has to play SDSU their final game and they will probably lose that since they are playing with only 6 scholarship players right now from all of their injuries. That would put Wyoming and UNLV in a tie.
You also look at CSU's final 3 games and there is still a good chance they might lose 2 of those 3 and if that were to happen it would put CSU and Wyoming also in a tie. Wyoming holds the tie breaker over both UNLV and CSU from head to head competition if that scenario played out which would give Wyoming the #6 seed. So the UNLV game on Saturday is somewhat a big game in that respect and with their injuries I would say we have a decent chance at a win.
Not sure I want the #6 seed though. I think the best case for Wyoming would be to get on a side of a bracket that had both Fresno St. and Nevada. I could see a scenario where Wyoming could beat a Fresno St. and a Nevada in back to back nights much more than a SDSU or a Boise St.
I think the best case would be for Boise to get the #4 seed and be on the same side as SDSU and then Wyoming get to play either Nevada or Fresno in the quarters assuming we can win the first night.
