Playoff Analysis

Things are a little shaky after the Autzen experience.

http://i-aa.org/article.asp?articleid=81825

Again, let us assume that the eventual champions of the Atlantic 10, Big Sky, Gateway and Southern conferences are above PSU in the GPI.
Four other bids go to the eventual champions of the MEAC, OVC, Patriot and Southland conferences, all below PSU in the GPI.

Of the remaining eligible teams, PSU would be 7th of 8 at-large entries.

Note: USD looks like the 5th at-large.
 
Things look pretty good this week.

Multiple bids:

Gateway with 3

PSU got alot of help this weekend, and since they just helped themselves by beating Sac State 13-7, let's take a look.

#12 N. Iowa lost.
#9 Cal Poly lost.
#4 James Madison lost.
Some Ivy League ranked teams also lost, which helps the ranking, although it won't help when it comes to playoff competition.

Also...umass gave maine another loss.
 
I just have to say that I can live with not being selected as long as San Diego doesn't get in over us. Their strength of schedule is so ridiculously week! I'd love to see their record if they had to play PSU's 2006 schedule. Seems to me like they'd go about 6-5 or 5-6. With that out of the way, PSU deserves to make the field as an at-large team, and might make for the most dangerous #16 seed (not that they seed past the first four, but you know what I mean) in recent memory.
 
Things look great after this week.

Can you imagine me and other Wyomiung fans waiting for a bowl invitation after we beat UNLV this weekend??!!!!

It'll be worse for us because we have to wait for roughly 2 weeks.

Yea. But, we have to beat the worst team in the Mountain West first then worry our butts OFF!
 
the chances are super slim for wyoming with a 5-6 record right now

We would have been so successful had we not scheduled Oregon and California, I hope we schedule smarter next year

I agree on the need to schedule better next year.
