    Default Bracketology 1.0

    Still really early for this but here is my take...

    UND at SDSU vs 1. NDSU
    Villanova at WIU vs 8. The Citadel
    UCA at Cal Poly vs 5. Sam Houston State
    EIU at UNI vs 4. Chattanooga

    Wagner at Albany vs 6. James Madison
    Charleston Southern at Samford vs 3. Jacksonville State
    Lehigh at YSU vs 7. Richmond
    San Diego at Montana vs 2. Eastern Washington

    Autobids: EWU, Charleston Southern, JMU, NDSU, Wagner, Jacksonville State, Lehigh, San Diego, Chattanooga, SHSU

    At Large: The Citadel, Richmond, Montana, YSU, Albany, UNI, Cal Poly, SDSU, Villanova, WIU, Samford, UCA, EIU, UND

    A UND vs SDSU with the winner playing NDSU is not an automatic scenario with the change in playoff mindset and not regionalizing schools.

    The new rules are rather broad and basically just trying to even things out so a bunch of teams aren't all stuck on the same side of the bracket, looking this over I probably should have put an MVFC team on other side so it was 3 and 2 instead of 4 and 1.

    Bus trips are still going to get priority sadly, it saves the NCAA a massive amount of money.

    For the record here are the new FCS playoff rules/guidelines...

    Viverito said the NCAA approved two FCS bracketing policies that should help spread out teams from the same conferences and also avoid rematches in the early rounds. The playoff committee will now be allowed to add a flight in the first or second rounds to avoid placing four or more teams from one conference in the same side of the bracket. The committee also has the license to avoid matchups in the first round for teams that played during the regular season in a non-conference game, providing that change doesn't result in an additional charter flight.
