Glad to get another shot at Weber should we win out.

Bracket

[EagInTexas]

Incarnate Word - only 6 wins
Elon - only 6 wins- east coast bias
Northern Iowa- only 6 wins- giving the MVFC some love

Eastern could play two BSC schools who we have already played.

Incarnate Word in with 6 wins is completely laughable.

We got what we wanted. Now, to get healthy and take care of business.

Total headscratcher. We were really disrespected last year.

I noticed that as well. If the seeds hold, EWU would play UC Davis and Weber again, both in the same locations as the regular season.

Two Southland teams? How the fuck does 7-4 Lamar from the Southland make it in???

Have you seen the bubble? Trash to choose from this year... would've been better served to have a 16 team field like the old days.

I'm conflicted on that. As nice as it would be to play a semi at home (assuming EWU makes it that far of course) I also would really like to see the Eags get another shot at Weber this year, even if it's in Ogden. I like their chances in a rematch. It would still be difficult, Weber's defense is really good, but EB sure seems to have matured quite a bit since that game. But still a ton of football before we get to that point.

 

[Screamin_Eagle174]

May work out for the best... we're 1/4 out of semis in Cheney. I like our chances in the rematch on the road.

Glad for the seed, glad we may get to face Weber again, but sort of a boring bracket. How do you really prove if your the best (aside from the Natty game) that the team is the best if you replay so many games against the same competition? Vanilla.

This bracket has EWU going to Frisco written all over it...

OMG, Mike Houston at JMU is a WHINER

Agreed. It's what the people want... :lol: :thumb:

So #3 Seed EWU has to play 8-3 Southland Conference Champion!? I don’t get that.

 

[Obzerver]

hope this show gets to cheney this morn..

The SLC is pretty weak this year, I'm honestly not sure how they got 3 teams in. But make no mistake, Nichols is not the Sam Houston teams of the last few years. Don't overlook San Diego either.

Auto-bid from a weak conference...

Historical precedent? Certainly an odd choice.
