Louisville lost today. So, there would be a 3-way tie for
third place at 18-6 if both VT and Louisville win Sunday. Our 3 teams only have one common opponent, NC State. Both VT and Stanford swept. We win opponents run-differential tiebreak with Stanford at 31-27 our favor, 3-seed. So, we win the 3-way tie. 3-seed
If Louisville loses and VT wins Sunday, we end up tied with Stanford for 3rd. We are tied with them at 7-2 vs. common opponents. We win opponents run-differential tiebreak at 31-27 our favor, 3-seed.
If both Louisville and VT lose Sunday, we would be tied with UL for 4th place. Common opponents record tied at 8-4. But we have a 46-19 run-differential with those opponents. 4-seed
So, we win Sunday, we get 3-seed. if we lose and Louisville loses we get 4-seed. We lose and Louisville wins, we get 5-seed.
Someone please correct me if I am wrong. But, this is my take.
