    I don’t feel 2 or 3 makes much difference really. I’d also feel really good about SDSU and WIU being in other bracket. I doubt that will happen, but wish it would, as I don’t see JMU beating either of those teams this year.

    theres no difference between 1 and 2...theres a significant difference between 2 and 3. we were praying Richmond would beat ISUr a few years ago so NDSU didn't have to go Normal. they did...and NDSU destroyed Richmond the next week.

    Here is my bracket

    Elon at Delaware vs 1 JMU
    San Diego at Weber St vs 8 SUU
    McNeese at UNI vs 4 UCA
    EWU at USD vs 5 SDSU

    WIU at Samford vs 3 JSU
    Lehigh at Stony Brook vs 6 SHSU
    Kennesaw St at Furman vs 7 Wofford
    CCSU at UNH vs 2 NDSU

    Note: Elon, Nc to Newark, DE is 393 miles. If you go by what the committee pres said to Craig Haley, they will be matched up

    I like this bracket. Except having to go to JSU.

    I asked Dom and Haley why JSU should be #2...their response was pretty much because that is how the committee had them a few weeks ago.

    I also tweeted Brian McLaughlin at hero sports and he had a polar opposite view, completely agreed that SOS was a big deal. His bracket is really interesting...

    1. James Madison (11-0) vs. Stony Brook/CCSU
    8. Western Illinois (8-3) vs. Elon/Samford

    4. Central Arkansas (10-1) vs. Sam Houston/NAU
    5. South Dakota State (9-2) vs. UNI/Austin Peay

    3. Jacksonville State (10-1) vs. Kennesaw/Furman
    6. Wofford (9-2) vs. Delaware/Lehigh

    7. Southern Utah (9-2) vs. Weber St/San Diego
    2. North Dakota State (10-1) vs. EWU/South Dakota

    NDSU to the FBS always. In all ways.

    Agreed. It just perpetuates the laziness of the first couple committee rankings and, if anything, helps the committee justify a really bad take. I have no idea how they can think JSU deserves to be ranked ahead of NDSU but UCA doesn't. JSU beat one team that might get playoff consideration and that's Austin Peay. UCA beat a likely seeded SHSU team and a McNeese team that looks to be safely on the right side of the bubble. If they're gonna put JSU in front of NDSU they should put UCA in front also. So why do Haley and Izzo think the committe will jump UCA but not JSU (both were ranked in front of NDSU in the committee's last ranking release)? How it should be is NDSU at 2, UCA at 3, and JSU at 4.

    But then you have JSU's AD on the selection committee.....

    I know... he has to leave the room when they officially discuss his team but he was on the committee last year too when they overseeded JSU. If they do it again this year there's no denying the trend here.

    1. We've had two weekends worth of games since the committee released their top 10 and last season we saw that that can be very fluid even if everyone continues to win.

    2. McLaughlin's bracket actually looks really good (not that I want to see USD/EWU) but considering the guidelines and what the committee will likely do his bracket is quite possible.

    I really like this bracket! Although, I think the Big Fluffy AQ(SUU) should be be seeded.
