Lack of RPI will hurt Jax. Big Ten champ should get #1 NCAA seed
Jax is in line for the #2. It gets murkier from here. Aaron winning today might be enough to propel him to #3. I imagine he would get #3 over a two loss Davino and Byrd. Byrd should drop to 4/5 in the coaches and will get hurt in the conference tournament criteria.
If Davino wins, then I think he gets #1 seed as his RPI should be enough to stay above Jax.
A Davino win might be the best case scenario as I could see a scenario playing out where Forrest and Blaze get the 2/3 seeds. Davino is a beast, but I would rather Seidel be opposite Forrest and Blaze.
Seidel-Davino would also be a chaotic semifinal match.

I don't know that it will matter that much. Forest looks like the top
