Big Sky teams in the Brackets!

[DuCharme]

I'm going to guess:

PSU - in and a bye, 7 or 8
SUU - in and probably on the road as they won't be able to put a big bid forth
UM - in and home because no one outbids us

As for UND... I'll say in. PSU and Wyo wins are good resume boosters. On the road maybe?

----

For the Griz whoever wins next weekends game probably goes to PSU or NDSU the next week

Makes sense. So, SUU at UM winner to PSU is my guess.

 

[Fahque]

PSU could get a seed. They're ranked higher than SUU nationally and should move up after today.

Maybe, but would the committee seed a team that did not win the conference over one that did? I would think that highly strange.

I think they would...especially when that team beat the autobid team and has wins over 2 FBS schools...

The two FBS opponents are a combined 3-19 with one of the wins over Weber. Not sure how much that helps. The loss to ISU and two blowout losses can't help either. I don't think there's enough love for the BSC to take four; I'm betting on three.

Washington State is 7-3, about to be 8-3. Not sure where you get the combined 3-19 from?

PSU WILL BE ranked, SUU AUTOBID, will not be ranked, happens occasionally, but this year it will. Griz will play at home and UND will play on the road

UND deserves to be in they beat PSU and Wyoming finished with 7 DIV I wins.

Und beats 1 team with a winning record the entire year and they should be in the playoffs? What a joke fcs is

Hey, you guys are the ones who have been making a joke of the FCS. Go look in the mirror pal. :thumb:

Ya someday ndsu will move up and quit hogging the trophies ...

But no way some of these teams should be in playoffs

Why are T-Buff fans still posting here? Slow news in Grand Forks?

Any statement that references both North Dakota and hogging is likely accurate.

True. Cheese doesn't go on everything.

 

[BadlandsGrizFan]

I wonder who the Bobcats will get??

 

[CDAGRIZ]

The equipment manager?

 

[FCSwatcher]

There will be 3....

SUU
PSU
UM

UM will host first round game, with winner traveling to SUU. Winner of that game will travel to NDSU, assuming they win their first game. I'd guess if PSU advanced far enough they would play NDSU in 2nd round.

SUU would have to play a first round game for that to happen as they are not getting a seed. PSU will get a seed

UND wifi out bid almost anyone, as a Bison guy said on AGS, they are the richer school in ND

Newsflash it was the refs fault the cats didn't make the playoffs...

May I ask why you don't think UND will make it?

He or she is wrong! UND WILL GET IN!

^^ how'd that work out? they had 1 freakin win vs a team with winning record and that was by 1 pt. they deserve where they are at... home watching hockey

of course UNI has exactly 2 wins over teams with winning records, each by 3 points, and no FBS wins....not any more impressive than UND....

Funny aside: The Bobscats fluffed their schedule with the easiest non-con schedule in conference history, and STILL couldn't get enough wins to qualify. How bad must that team really be?
