Nodak78 Posted November 17, 2019 Posted November 17, 2019 I think out competition for bid is Maine, Towson, Furman, Kennesaw. Quote
planetearth Posted November 17, 2019 Posted November 17, 2019 Planet Earth has been considering Eastern Washington in several scenarios. How does a 7-5 (6 D1 wins) EWU team look vs UND? Both on the bubble? Quote

They were in the National championship last year. Und fans don’t think that matters, but the rest of the country does. ewu also has a conference with a chair at the selection table. Und doesn’t 1 Quote

Und doesn’t Hate to admit he’s right. Pedigree matters in subjective selections. EWU and MSU have the history. UND doesn’t. i just have no trust in the selection committee. Quote

The Sicatoka Posted November 17, 2019 Posted November 17, 2019 I'm waiting for the FCS Massey Ratings to update to get a feel for what truly transpired yesterday. Quote
KEH Posted November 17, 2019 Posted November 17, 2019 In 2018, the Big Sky had 4 teams: Montana State 7-4, EWU 9-2, UC Davis 9-2, and Weber State 9-2 (left out: Idaho State and Montana had 6-5 records). In 2017, the Big Sky had 3 teams: Weber State 9-2, NAU, 7-4, and SUU 9-2 (left out: EWU and Sac St. had 7-4 records). In 2016, the Big Sky had 4 teams: Cal Poly 7-4, Weber State 7-4, UND 9-2, and EWU 10-1 (left out: SUU, Northern Colorado, and Montana had 6-5 records). Since UND is essentially a Big Sky school, in 2019 they will be behind these teams: Montana, Weber State, Sacramento State (DII win), and Montana State. IMO The million dollar question is this: Is the Big Sky the strongest FCS league in 2019? If yes, the committee takes a 5th Big Sky team (either UND or EWU (DII win)) If no, both the Hawks and the Eagles are left out. Quote
Wilbur Posted November 17, 2019 Posted November 17, 2019 This week NDSU really really needs to blow the doors off SIU. I mean like win by 40 plus which they are 100 percent capable of. Maybe that'll help when we beat SUU by 3 points. 2 Quote
Wilbur Posted November 17, 2019 Posted November 17, 2019 Question: Pretend we scheduled like Valpo in that open week. A non scholly D1 team that Minot State (fear the beaver) hangs with. We win 32-22 because that's what we do. We beat SUU this week. Are we a shoe in? I'll hang up and listen. 1 Quote

Kab Posted November 17, 2019 Posted November 17, 2019 We first need to beat SUU , no guarantee with our team and leaders, hope they prove me wrong then hope for some other help 7 and 4 I think leaves us out unless we get a lot of help Quote

Never say never ewu has a pedigree, I know slamming me personally makes you feel better, but try not to let it get in the way of a football conversation amongst adults. Quote

In a season with 11games, I’d agree. With 12, there will be lots of bubble teams with 7 wins. Not sure UND gets in, but it’s gonna be very difficult for EWU. 1 Quote
The Sicatoka Posted November 17, 2019 Posted November 17, 2019 Yo Tex, a 7-5 EWU would only have six DI wins and their best win per Massey Ratings would be over UND. Pedigree. Quote

Pedigree. A pedigree doesn’t happen in one year sic. If you think ewu has 0% chance of making the playoffs this year, just come out and say it. Myself, I would not say 0% chance Quote

The Sicatoka Posted November 18, 2019 Posted November 18, 2019 The committee is seeding 2019 teams into a 2019 bracket. Last year should mean nothing this year: That team is not this team. A ‘pedigree’ argument means one has nothing else to use as the case for a team for this season. lf pedigree matters Eastern Kentucky (6-5) should be pleased as their 21 all-time playoff appearances should be pedigree enough to get them in this season.

Kab Posted November 18, 2019 Posted November 18, 2019 There will be bias from the committee, this is the NCAA we are speaking of 1 Quote

bincitysioux Posted November 18, 2019 Posted November 18, 2019 Because we won by 7 against a horrible team rather than 35 like we should have.......... 1 2 Quote
