- Maryland and Buttgers are tied in the race for the regular season championship and the tournament #1 seed. Maryland holds the head-to-head tie-breaker for the top seed
- Only Minnesota and Ohio State are eliminated from tournament contention. The Buttguys' Big Ten season is complete, leaving seven teams to compete for the bottom four tournament spots
- Nebraska could possibly finish as high as the #5 seed with a sweep of Michigan State -AND- while Penn State, Indianus and Michigan are all swept -AND- Purdoodoo loses at least twice
- Nebraska does not have tiebreakers with Indianus or Michigan due to losing both head-to-head series. Nebraska would possibly own a tiebreaker over Penn State.
- Nebraska's most-likely path to Omaha is to overtake Purdoodoo. Purdoodoo lost two league games this year due to weather. In order for NU to overtake Purdoodoo: 1) Purdoodoo loses two of three to Maryland and Nebraska sweeps Michigan State. Nebraska would end at 11-13 (.4583) and Purdoodoo at 10-12 (.4545).... -OR- 2) Purdoodoo is swept by Maryland and Nebraska takes 2-of-3 from MSU. Nebraska would finish 10-14 in that scenario (.4167) and Purdoodoo would be 9-13 (.4091)......however, in this second scenario, Nebraska would also need Northwestern to not sweep Minnesota.
- Nebraska does own the tie-breaker over Northwestern as the Huskers have a better record against common opponents
