1. IWU 2. USF 3 HU 4 Bethel 5 Marian 6 Grace IWU - No Doubt; USF/HU - Could be other way, but won't; Bethel - since they won the tourney and guaranteed a spot to Branson, no reason to move higher. IWU, USF, HU, Bethel to Branson What do the rest of you think will happen?  |

I agree with JBH, little to no change from the last ranking. Had Huntington made a run like Bethel I could see changing places with St. Francis but otherwise just food for thought.

I can see Bethel jumping to the #2 team in the conference. There is meaning in the tourney, otherwise don't play it.

No way BC jumps to 2. Putting then 4th is the best way to play the "at large" bid game and assure 4 births. I could even see MU being ranked higher in an effort for 5.

My thought is we’ll see no change in the final CL rankings and little to no change in the final national rankings. The elimination of this final ranking for next season is a strong indication that nationally the coaches want to emphasize the results of a 18 game regular season schedule (in CL case) and use the league tournament as an incentive for a team to play their way into the tournament by claiming an automatic bid. I do think they may factor a team’s success in their respective league tournaments when they actually seed the tournament.

As I stated last night in the Branson Bound 3/2 Thread, it will not change.
