Weber wins the BSC title and gets a first round BYE in the playoffs. There is a three way tie for second place and one of those three gets left behind. They will cry about it, but that is what happens on the bubble. Someone's bubble get burst. There is a remote chance of the BSC getting four teams in, but there has been too much strength elsewhere in the country.
Who, out of EWU, SUU, and NAU, would you leave behind?
Suu gets in for sure. They have 3 top 25 wins.
If NAU loses to SUU, and Eastern wins out I see Eastern getting the nod, history and a stronger finish helps them
What'll probably happen is if the scenario you described happens, Weber will get a low top 8 seed, probably 8. Suu will host San Diego, and Eastern will play at a MVFC or Southland team
Yeah, I could see that happening. It all depends on how much value they put on good wins, as opposed to bad losses. In that scenario SUU would have losses to Sac and UCDavis. I'm not sure how much weight that would carry. You are right to say that EWU has a better history with playoffs than does NAU. Somebody's ox will get gored.
SUU isn't going to lose next week, it would be a nice gift for Weber but it isn't going to happen. I can see MSU winning @NAU because I'm not sold on NAU. It's probably not going to happen but it wouldn't surprise me if it does.
While unlikely it's not un probable. UC Davis is going to be riding high and the Aggies have played really well at home.
NAU with Case Cookus will not lose to MSU at home. Heck if it wasn't for Cookus getting ejected NAU would have beaten Montana in Missoula. I put Montana State's chances at winning in Flaggy at around 35%.
