I-AA Game of the Week - FIRST ROUND

Some really compelling games this year. Several that I'd have a hard time picking a winner with any confidence.

I picked Missouri State over UT-Martin. I think Mo State is the darkhorse candidate for a deep run this year.

It's a ringer this year. @ Montana State then then @ Sam.

I think we're going to see JMU/NDSU one last time in the semis. Has Montana ever won away from Missoula? ;)

I was pretty tied up between TN-Martin at SW MO State and UNI at Eastern Washington for the Game of the Week. I ultimately went with TN-Martin. UCD has been so down the last month or so, that their tilt at SDSU diminishes in comparison. The idea of Causeway 2.0 is intriguing, however....

I went with So Dakota & So Illinois. That should be an evenly matched game.

Naturally, I'm more curious about the outcome of No. Iowa at Eastern Washington. Yet I expect the Eagles will overwhelm the MVFC Panthers.

I realize you're 'poking the bear' but yes the Grizzlies have won outside of Missoula.

O you of short memory, Montana beat James Madison on their field in Virginia, I believe that was a semi-final. This year they'll do it again in a quarter final. :ugeek:

As for week one I see the following advancing:

Incarnate Word
Missouri State
Holy Cross
So Dakota St
SE Louisiana
E Washington
Kennesaw St
So Dakota

Good luck to all, yet Go Griz!

No. No need for JMU to even show up.

That's right. 1-10 away from home in the playoffs. My bad. :mrgreen:

I picked EWU in the poll.

I think it's going to be a home team sweep in the 1st round. Southern Ill might be the only exception.

Had to go UNI at EWU. This game stands out from the others as having a much higher level of competition.

You sir are correct.
..peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard..
..But you have to go home now. We have to have peace…
..I know how you feel, but go home, and go home in peace.

Hey, let's not forget to mention beating Marshall at Marshall.
Otherwise, you might have a point. The Grizzlies do seem to play better at home. :kisswink:
