FCS Playoffs Second Round Thread

[NDSUstudent]

Does anyone know why non scholly schools are included in FCS or allowed to be part of the playoffs? Does the Ivy League allow athletic scholarships, and if not at least they are wise enough to opt out of the playoffs. If they do have schollies it would be better to have them be part of the playoffs than the non scholly schools that will never make a deep run.

The Ivy League doesn't have scholarships but those schools have massive endowments and obviously offer a valuable education. They bring in talent. A great Ivy team could make a legit playoff run.

Even if the BSC team wasn't worthy of being in the tournament, that is an amazing accomplishment. They are doing something right in southern California.

USD should definitely be proud of their football program. They also appear to play very hard and well disciplined. Even though they eventually got blown out on the scoreboard last year in Fargo, I still think they represented themselves well.

Even for entertainment, the best decision is often the game you don’t play. With the vig at 120, just eyeballing it, Sagarin would probably suggest just three plays.

So who do people want to win, UNI or SDSU? I'm honestly not sure who to pull for.

Furman is a rode fav against Wofford coming off a bye? That and the UCA line look pretty good for some money making

South Dakota is playing with house money. Last team in and got a little lucky last week. First one to 50 might win that game. As for SDSU/UNI, at least one of those teams will be done this weekend.
