That's because they did not have a "gimmie" game in the first round like some teams did....

If Madden would have been the announcer and had his PEN they would have dominated the FCS last year.

Very

and getting tiresome

Ask the NCAA who won the SLC this year. Is it so hard to comprehend that UCA is not officially in a conference yet? Good Lord

Wow again App you show me just how little about football you know. Had Cal Poly, Weber and Montana been put into different brackets it would have been a way different outcome, and its funny even with the comittee giving you a free pass your team still blows it

i agree whole heartedly T-bird, i love how he talks crap when even with his team pretty much getting a free pass to the championship game they choke, and about cal poly losing in the first round....seriously i thought you smarter then this, cal poly and weber were both top teams in the playoffs and the comittee did screw them over, please have some inteligence in your posts before you post them.

All the "west coast" teams played each other in the first 2 rounds. Gee, that would leave 1 team standing for the semis. DUH!!!!

Unlike 2005 when we (SLC) played
1 - Cal Poly - Great West
2 - GSU - SoCon
3 - UNI - Gateway
