Nodak78 Posted November 10, 2022 Share Posted November 10, 2022 Sam Herder has a good podcast with chairman of the selection committee. Sounds like each voting member can weight each piece of information how ever they want to. Eliminate bias. No way. Coaches poll could no weight or huge weight by individual members. https://herosports.com/fcs-podcast-playoff-committee-chair-jermaine-truax-bzbz/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They lay the line down before a bet is made. Then after bets start they may try to balance the book. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Sicatoka Posted November 13, 2022 Share Posted November 13, 2022 The opening line is set (guessed) to balance the incoming bets. If the first guess is off they move the line to restore balance. It’s all about the vig. The house ain’t doing this as a public service. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Sicatoka Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 Per Massey, this time next week UND will have played the second toughest schedule in FCS (behind only USD) and will have no fewer than 7 wins. ______________________________ Herder: "When you have a weaker SOS (Holy Cross 72nd, Jackson State 114th), I need to see you dominate and outclass inferior opponents." Sounds good. But what about when you have a monster SOS and 42-7 (InStU) a weaker opponent on their field. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have read a post on this board from a “real” UND fan that our SOS is only inflated because #1 SDSU was on it………. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

forksandspoons Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 I find it hilarious that all of a sudden people are pushing for the best conference in the country every season to only get two teams into the playoffs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siouxfan512 Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 This is where the polls can get frustrating and even a single loss can be such a setback (SIU). That knocked us back out of the polls after we were already in and now we have had to claw and scratch just to get back to 17. Even with a win against NDSU, how much could we really move up? We would definitely move up a bit (maybe even get a vote in the coaches poll) but how much? A seed would be in play, but how high of a seed? As of now NDSU looks to the #3 (which is absurd) .... so UND should be at least that if we hit 8-3 with a win over the Bison and a tougher SOS , right? So wrong, I'll bet even with a win this weekend we slide in as the #8. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiouxHawkGuy Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 MVFC usually gets 4-5 teams in. “Oh wait UND is in 3rd place... only 2 this year.” 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
