FINAL Bracketology

JMU's Mike Houston to his team once he got off ESPNU: "I'm good and pissed off like you are."

Dont lose 3 games then. Obviously JMU is a great program but you cant drop 3. But Colgate getting seeded. Wow

That fuckin 11 am game is the worst thing about this whole thing. So stupid.

I agree. No respect. It's a championship game for crying out loud!

The Valley was soft this year and didnt deserve more than 3.

Top/Left bracket teams had 11 wins in the playoffs last year (and, with one exception, they got bumped out by teams on their side of the bracket.)

The bottom/right teams had 3 wins in the playoffs last year. San Diego (1) and Weber State (2) - and both those teams got bumped out by teams in the Top/Left side of the bracket.

It's set up so NDSU might have to go through the only two teams to beat them in the last two seasons (SDSU and JMU).

I guess the only surprise is that UNI isn't playing Montana State.

There are at-large teams on the top/right of the bracket that would be favored by Vegas against any of the seeds on the left/bottom side.

The Valley had a pretty good OOC record this year from what I understand.

Top/left bracket average Sagarin ranking 117 and average Sagarin rating 57.70 (remove the Bison and it's 126 and 55.56). Bottom/right bracket Sagarin ranking is 133 and rating is 53.75.

NDSU was also the clear cut #1 seed, so it makes perfect sense to load their side of the bracket.

Selection committee gonna do selection committee things.

I watched Colgate-Army yesterday. Colgate shot themselves in the foot with penalties the first half. Their defense is legit and JMU has struggled on offense at times this year. Colgate could beat JMU at home. At least that's what I'd like to see.

I think they saw this year as one where they could get some teams in from conferences that don't have any business getting more than the autobid.

That's pretty disrespectful. You might have made Houston angry.
