The #4 team in the Ivy League is historically not very good, somewhere around 7-7. There is an argument that it is unlikely that a 4th place team will win the ill-conceived IL Tournament which is probably true 90% of the time but the question remains why? Also, I am not a big fan if a 3rd place team is 9-5 and win the IL Tournament while 1 or 2 teams with 12-2 or better records do not go to the NCAA tournament.
Same thought process exists if the Tigers are 9-5 or 7-7 next year and win the IL tournament. I will root for the IL Champion every year but do not plan to watch the IL Tournament winner play unless they had a strong regular season, including the Tigers.
