Mt St

NDSU

DAVIS

SDSU

USD/Idaho St—-5/6

NDSU had the toughest SOS in FCS which gives them the 2–committee will try and setup non conf semis possibly? None of the 2-5 should bitch too much—all had chances but didn’t win when needed—SD schools non D1 wins will hurt them I believe and push them to 4 and 5/6

Giving ndsu a 2 seed over a team that they lost to in the last week of the year is the definition of stupidity.. SOS is similar.. u sound like Somebody arguing the pairwise in hockey.. 

should be simple.. Montana st the #1.. usd just beat #1.. so now they are #2.. the rest doesn’t really matter

Montana State with #1 seed and NDSU gets #2 seed. SDSU #3 and South Dakota with #4.

could be big time semi-final games, but NDSU again gifted with home games though out playoffs is tough …   Potential SDSU @ NDSU in semifinal would be a big rematch from regular season … tough to win in the dome though. Hate that NDSU is again and again gifted with home playoff games …

Better SoS, but I don't think anyone could have complained if they were 3 or 4.

Gifted isn’t the right word. Could have swapped 2,3,4 in any order and nobody would really have a strong complaint. SDSU can’t jump NDSU with the head to head and usd can’t jump sdsu with their head to head. The D2 wins were the difference I’d imagine.

It was gifted. It terms of recency, strong arguments for USD and SDSU to be higher than NDSU. USD beat NDSU head-to-head just yesterday and SDSU is most recent back-to-back national champions. Sure, I understand those aren’t the “criteria”, but still crap that NDSU and their arrogant asshole fans are again *gifted* with more home games.

Earned not gifted. Your anti ndsu bias is clouding your judgement. Ndsu had the best strength of schedule in the country and didn’t have a D2 win.

If USD had beaten NDSU by 2 or 3 scores(especially if the win had been in Fargo), then I would completely agree with you. But it was a 1pt win in Vermillion with the wining score coming in the last 30sec. To me, that's basically a tie. Same with the SDSU win over USD, and the NDSU win over SDSU. So with those three teams all at the same level, you have to go to the rest of the resume, and NDSU has a small but real advantage there.

I wouldn't have been upset with NDSU at 3 or 4, but they do have the best case for the 2.

How do you separate those 3 teams? Point differential which isn’t used in conference autobid would have favored NDSU—3 teams are all deserving but the only thing separating them was NDSU SOS and more D1 wins—I think the SD schools playing D2 schools hurt them and put them down to 3-4–like I said  none of them should be bitching about seeds—-win one more winnable game and you are 1 if NDSU and the yotes or SDSU would have been 2 behind Mt St—honestly thought they might move Davis up but they got that right putting 3 Dakota schools at 2-4–also think the yotes going to Bozeman possibly is/might be better than going to Brookings or Fargo in semis—still think SDSU is the best valley team but can’t argue with the order they were seeded((you can but lots of views/opinions going to all 3 of them)

Biased? Absolutely, and that’s not changing. 
You know who is also biased? Matt Larsen, NDSU AD, who is on the selection committee. He’s as corrupt as the school he represents, so I’m going with that as the explanation for NDSU No. 2.

But USD can't jump NDSU due to head to head?
