We wave goodbye to Liberty, who lost at North Florida (eh, okay) and Stetson (*pukes*) while getting 30-14’d in the second half by the Hatters. You don’t come back from that.
3. Northern Iowa
The Purple Panthers ran in place last week, threatening to drop out of these rankings with a disappointing loss at Southern Illinois on Wednesday night, but they bounced back with a huge win over first-place (at the time) Loyola-Chicago. That put Ben Jacobson’s squad back in the Missouri Valley driver’s seat, and while the road ahead is littered with landmines – UNI is somehow still Illinois State’s only conference win, so the Panthers can lose to anyone – UNI is still very much in control of its tournament destiny – both MVC and NCAA.

WINNERS
NORTHERN IOWA (NET: 49, NBC: 12): Their strong NET
and wins at Colorado (17) and over South Carolina (89) on a neutral keep
the Panthers in the conversation, but loss at Southern Illinois (166)
and Illinois State (214) are killers. Beating Missouri State (165) at
home was a must on Wednesday. UNI cannot lose another game unless it is
against Loyola-Chicago (91) in the MVC tournament if they really want a
chance at an at-large.
