Anyone out of the Big sky that goes 7-4 is probably in, with the exception of Portland State who'll need 8 wins since they play a D-III and a D-II. The real dilemma would be if Montana goes 7-4 and/or Sac State goes 7-4 and we also go 7-4. Montana beat us and would probably go in front of us on head-to-head and even if we went 7-4 with a win over Sac State, they'd have "marquee" wins over Montana and Oregon State that we don't have.
Everything is irrelevant regarding Eastern unless we win out, starting with this weekend.
Another interesting feature of our lousy schedule, we play Sac State with them coming off a bye week. We also played NAU off their bye week. Also, we got Montana State after they played Minot State at home and we'll get Portland State coming off a home destruction of D-III Willamette. For all practical purposes, we play or played 4 teams coming off a scrimmage weekend instead of a big game.
We, unfortunately, drew a two week bye from conference play at the end of the season. That doesn't make much sense to me that we play 7 conference games in a row and then get two weeks off from Big Sky play before getting Idaho State.
Montana would be at only 6 DI wins. That's a dagger even considering their head to head win IMHO. Noticed and agree on the bye week thing though.
Doesnt help much with a bye week with only 2 games left in the season ! W T F !!
