Final Bracketology

[SamsRams]

You're probably right about UNH now that I think about it.

Nova got outbid by a Patriot and NEC team in the last few years I believe

Heres my Final Bracket

San Diego at Cal-Poly vs. 1. NDSU
Samford at New Hampshire vs. 8. SDSU
Illinois St at Central Arkansas vs. 4. JSU
Richmond at Chattanooga vs. 5. JMU

Villanova at Weber St vs. 3. SHSU
Charleston Southern at Wofford vs. 6. Citadel
Albany at Lehigh vs. 2. EWU
St. Francis at Youngstown State 7. UND

Thats whats intriguing for tomorrow. How the committee will approach balancing teams from same conference and regional matchups.

[DIBISON]

There is no way that 4 Big Sky teams should be included in the bracket and the same bracket only includes 3 MVFC teams! And there is no way that UND should be seeded higher than SDSU! Just look at the SOS, Sagarin ratings, team resumes and conference rankings.

I'm hoping they won't put EWU/UND and NDSU/SDSU on the same side. It's about time we get an easier path to Frisco.

Not to nit pick but there is a less than 0% chance Nova outbids UNH for a game. And I would be surprised if Wofford could outbid CSU

New Hampshire got their 25M stadium renovation done just in time
for the 2016 season, now seats about 11,000. Looks like they moved the track and field to its own location.

When do tickets go on sale?

sams here is the Wofford Stadium Home Side



Gibbs Stadium seats 13,000


Here is CSU's Home Side



Seats less than 4,000

Wofford WILL out bid CSU.

Some things to watch for...

Seeds 3-5: This was very hard to sort out, SHSU ripped off a massive win and I would think the committee will reward them for it. These teams are close, sadly The Citadel seems to have wronged the committee in some way otherwise I would have them in this mix.

Seeds 7-8: Really seems like a toss up between SDSU and UND

Last team in: I am confidence NC A&T gets in but that last team in between ISUR, Samford and Fordham is tough. Would be a shame if the Valley only gets three in, message would be sent that ISUR would have been better off playing a DII team then EIU.

Three Dakota teams getting seeded puts a serious dent in regionalization, so for once that isn't a major concern of mine.

Big Sky will get 4 and the Valley only 3 IMO.
