Here's my write up from a forum across the street if you're interested:

If this game were to occur midseason I would be all over Valp but in this situation the advantage goes to Butler. Valparaiso has already clinched the regular season title and #1 seed to the Horizon tournament. In this tournament the #1 and #2 seeds automatically advance to the semifinals skipping two whole rounds.

I searched further into tiebreaking procedures and found that Butler has the tiebreak against Cleveland State because Cleveland State lost twice to Valp. So with a win against Valp tomorrow they will clinch the #2 seed and skip two whole games. I can't see Valp giving it there all in a game that doesn't mean anything. The public should be all over Valp as well laying only one point at home.
