Playoff talk and info

Trying to figure out how Illinois State is in over Missouri State after MSU blasted them 41-7 and they both finished 6-2 in the MFVC…
Ill St, won't get to use their seed to have a first round home game, because their field is being used, I think for high school football playoffs.
 
He predicted 3 teams that did not make it and did not pick 3 teams that did, So he was off by 6 teams and his bracket placement was also not correct. Not sure how spot on that is.
His seeded teams were all spot on. Not sure anybody could possibly predict all the at large and where they land. His bracket was by far the most accurate that I saw.
 
I had a gut feeling before they got to the 9-16 seeds that Montana was going to get the ESPN2 nationally-broadcasted game.

ESPN knows Montana draws viewers and has the best atmosphere for a nationally-broadcasted game.
Late game, Thanksgiving weekend, students gone, gonna be sparse.

I think you will also see a lot of empty seats that are normally filled when there is a positive feeling for the potential of a team. This is not a year of that. I will be there, but I already have heard from multiple season ticket holders near us that are not going. Regardless of what some on here say, a big chunk of griz nation has a lot of questions with what has gone on this season from the staff with offensive play calls, co-defensive coordinators production, QB rotation, lack of Gillman carries etc and the obvious lack of dominant lines. The costs of attending (tickets, travel, hotels, meals) starts to be not as worth it after seeing what happened in the 4 losses. You even hear/see the questioning, low opinions by former players on pods and twitter and that is very unusual. Would have been better if not on ESPN2, more will stay home to watch and nationwide audience will see a partially filled stadium.
 
Winter driving, hotel, food, gas, dog sitter, long shot team….mmmm we’ll see I guess. I know for a fact all of the people who tailgate with us are not going. It’ll be “a gut feeling “
