Morehead State wins the OVC, putting Belmont into at-large peril at best.
Hope we play the winner in the tourney.Upsets in the America East today too. 6 seed UMass Lowell upset 1 seed UMBC 79-77 and 4 seed Hartford beat 2 seed Vermont 71-65. The winner of next Saturday's final at Hartford will be making its 1st NCAA Tournament appearance. Hartford has been D-1 since 1985. UMass Lowell has been fully D-I since 2017.
