If we want Lehigh to be on the other side of the bracket, I think tonight is a must win for them vs Navy. Given how easy Lehigh's remaining schedule appears to be on paper, I think they have a better chance to move up to the 3 seed than fall back to the 6. In all likelyhood they won't be able to pass Bucknell or Boston so getting ahead of Navy is only way that they can get to the 3.

It's possible that with the way the schedule sets up, that Bucknell could possibly be playing a meaningless game vs Navy in the last regular season game, with the fate of Lehigh's seed potentially in their control.

However Lehigh plays a night game for their last game so they could potentially be in a situation where if they win they get the 3 and could possibly play Boston in the second round, who owns them. Or they could lose and be the 4 seed and possibly play Bucknell in the second round, whom Lehigh owns. Would be interesting to see that scenario play out.

All this thinking makes my head hurt, maybe I should just watch the games and let the pieces fall how they may.
