Even if the Norse lose to Wartburg tomorrow, I can see Wartburgs luck running out in the IIAC tournament with an upset coming from Simpson, UD, or Luther. I think Loras will host the IIAC finals.

I thought the entire tournament was held at one location? Unless that is something they changed in the previous years as well.

The winner of the regular season hosts the tourney. That's whey we need Luther to play spoiler!

Incorrect. The higher seed of the individual game will host.

So the matches are played at the higher seeded teams pitch, basically if the winner of the regular season and the 2nd place finisher makes it to the final match they will have hosted the entire tournament on their respective home fields and then #1 will play #2 on #1's pitch. The winner of the regular season if they make to the finals will have hosted the entire tournament.

This is correct. I believe this changed beginning with the 2011 season. That was the year that Luther won the conference. Loras hosted Central in the semis, and then traveled to Decorah for the conference tournament championship.

So, you're saying there's a chance.

So neither Coe v Loras (at Coe) or Luther v Wartburg (at Luther) is being streamed in video or audio and no live stats!?! WTH! I am hoping that the feed is just not posted yet.

You mean Central v Loras right?

I don't remember Central every having a stream. Course I usually don't watch that Loras vs Central games.

Surprised the Luther/Wartburg game is not being streamed seeing how it is at Wartburg and they have somewhat decent video stream...

Wow, I really butchered that one huh! The Luther v Wartburg is at Wartburg and you are correct MH I meant Loras v Central.

Apparently Tripods are too expensive in Pella Iowa. Feel like I'm watching the Blair Witch Project....

Wartburg being ranked #9 by NSCAA is unbelievable. Who is doing these rankings? Get a clue.

They are #9 because they are ranked #2 in the Region. Loras is #15 because they are #3 in the region for this poll. The #1 region teams are 1-8, #2 are normally 9-16, but they have Loras at #15 even thought this polls has them 3rd in the region. Not the poll that counts!

Cavers rings the crossbar, damn!

Loras finally cracks one in for a 2-1 lead
