Five schools enter the final week of the Horizon League Men's Basketball regular season technically in the running for a share of the regular season crown. Two schools enter the final week of the Horizon League Men's Basketball regular season with a shot at the 1-seed in the league tournament. But who gets it will be up to the 3 schools that aren't in the running for the 1-seed. Is there anything more "Horizon's gonna Horizon" than that? If there is...we'll probably see it in the league tournament. In the meantime, I wanted to dive into what has to happen this week for each of the 5 schools with a chance at the regular season crown to bolster — or maintain — its current seed in the league tournament. In the past, I've written about "who you should root for" as a fan of each school and how it pertained to tiebreakers. I couldn't do that this season, as it seems like in a lot of cases where a team is hoping to move up a seed line the answer is a team that's still on your school's schedule. In several tiebreaker scenarios left to sort out this year a school needs to beat a team this week, then have that team also hold strong in the standings to bolster tiebreakers. Here's a look at the best and worse case scenarios for teas teams at the top of the league:

The Horizon League's final weekend looks to have some serious drama in store, with each of the five teams jockeying for position in the Horizon League Tournament seeding while also still mathematically in the running to be throned a Horizon League champion. Four of the five also locked up their byes already, and it'd take a massive upset for the fifth not to do the same this week. While there's admittedly less intrigue in how the league's bottom six teams shake out, there are still some results that aren't too far-fetched that could shift seeding and change matchups. Let's take a look at the teams currently slated to play in the opening round of the Horizon League tournament, and how they might secure or move up from their current seed.
