Breaks the cardinal rule NEVER have two swords in a throuple. NEVER. EVER.

Close your eyes. I'm not sure who the third member is (poll question?) but there could be 3 swords in their fantasy throuple.

We're getting dangerously close to re-introducing Human Centipede talk. Bandle would crawl out of his hiding spot for that.

Field is pretty close to being a done deal, no?...

That appears the most likely case. UND shit the bed or might have had KSU's spot.

A weak-ass Southland having three teams…

[Gil Dobie]

Committee is smitten on UNH, they get in with a 6-5 record

Just for fun....

UND at 7-4 if they win, might get in, depending on other outcomes.
SELU and Nichols play each other. Nichols has 2 FBS losses.

[Ibanez]

Yep! We just don't know which one of you is Debbie Downer and which one is Negative Nancy.

Here are your UD Reunion name tags ...



Now you just need to find a third person to complete your throuple.

Truth. I had a roommate that would say his dick was the only star of the show.

HIGHLY unlikely. Maybe 5%-10% chance.
-JMU’s in
-Albany is ahead of UNH even if they lose to SBU. Albany loses they would be 7-5/5-3, ahead of UNH 6-5/5-3 because won head to head.

For UNH to get in at 6-5/5-3 would need to beat Maine and have TU lose and have VU lose and get in as the 3rd place CAA team.

It would be awesome if HC came to the Dome. I'll be in Illinois for Thanksgiving, I'd love to slip away for a full day to catch that game if it happens.

UNI is one of the few schools (with UND) that can bus to SDSU so I think we get sent that way.

[AZGrizFan]

Would LOVE to have another shot at Suck State in Wa/Griz.

I got 23 of those 24 teams (not the same pairings) if favorites hold serve this weekend.
-Have Nichols out losing @ SELA (-8.5). That would drop Nichols to 7-5/6-3, 2 I-A losses.
-Have SIU in as a 5th MVFC in at 7-5/5-3. 2 I-A games, 1 win.

ILSU, 6-2 MVFC, beat seeded SDSU, not a seed, and VU, 5-3 CAA, and a weak OOC, no I-A game, a 7 seed? Since when has a team with 3 conference losses ever gotten a seed?

Here’s what I have:
#1 NDSU(12-0/8-0)
#2 JMU (11-1/8-0)
#3 Montana #3 (10-2/7-1) (beat Weber, lost @ Sac St).
#4 Weber (9-3/7-1) (2 I-A losses; beat Sac St, lost @ Montana).
#5 Sac St (9-3/7-1) (2 I-A losses; beat Montana, lost to Weber).
#6 ILSU (9-3/6-2) (beat SDSU).
#7 SDSU (9-3/6-2).
#8 Monmouth (10-2/6-0)

-Monmouth (10-1 vs I-AA, Big South AQ), would be 2-1 vs playoff teams: Beat Albany & KSU, lost @ Montana.
-Wofford (8-2 vs I-AA, So-Con AQ, would be 1-0 vs playoff teams +2 losses to non playoff (SC State, Samford).
-VU (9-3 vs I-AA, 4 way tie for 3rd place CAA), would be 1-1 vs playoff teams: Beat TU, lost to JMU, + 2 losses to non playoff (SBU, UNH).

If favorites hold serve, the last seeded team will be either Monmouth or Wofford.

[SuperHornet]

I respectfully disagree, BDK. IMO, the SOS for both BBQ and Sac are better than that one extra game in the win column for the Griz (assuming they beat the Kitties, which is no done deal when one is talking about the Brawl of the Wild). My top five are NDSU, JMU, Sac, BBQ, and Montana.

Wouldn't surprise me or upset me, but there is a giant asterisk on that 1 I-A win... 1-10 UMess.

NO-ONE else has Weber or Sac ahead of Montana. IF Montana beats Mt St, they will be seeded ahead of Weber and Sac.

SH needs to lay off the A&W.

SH needs to lay off the A&W.

He amazingly did come close on the win total for SacSt, but he predicts them to go undefeated almost every year. So that makes up for last year when he said 11-0 and they went 2-8.

Our fellow Hornet fans seem to be in a "wait and see" phase due to history over the last 25 years or so. I see the following:

Sac 11-0/8-0
*EWU 10-1/8-0
UM 9-2/6-2
BBQ 9-2/6-2
NAU 8-3/5-3
MSU 8-3/5-3
CP 7-4/4-4
ISU 7-4/4-4
Idalol 6-5/4-4
SUU 5-6/3-5
PSU 4-7/3-5
UND 4-7/3-5
UNC 2-9/0-8
Manure Pile 0-11/0-8

Just gonna chime in here and say that I'm pretty stoked that the Hornets finally made the playoffs.

Who said that FCS was down?

[SDHornet]

Would LOVE to have another shot at Suck State in Wa/Griz.

You weren't calling us that back in October.

What an ass kicking that was.

Its worse than you think. I stopped counting at 19 DII teams that are ranked ahead of UMASS in Massey.

As we've seen many times, number of scholarships does not mean a better team or a win.
