Was so bummed over the Griz losing, took me awhile to get around to this. It’s interesting that there’s only one non-seeded team that crashed the party. Be interesting to see if Sam Houston is really on a role, and can keep it up.

Under-dog on the left. Some people will pick against a team they “hate on,” rather than a realistic possibility. Also, there are only four games – so you are allowed just one choice this week
 
I think Coastal will surprise the Bizon and quiet the Fargo Dome substantially on Saturday.

FTE as well. :coffee:

Coastal's dline is light-weight; tackles at 270 lbs. and ends at 235. We'll see how much juice they have left after being bullied by 300 lb. linemen for 3 quarters. 4th quarter will be telling.
 
CC don't have a chance. Ewho is gonna get a wake up surprise. The Red Birds are gonna wreck the beagles.
 
I believe the higher seeds / home teams all advance.

E. WA & IL St game is the closest match up and therefore IL St winning wouldn't be that much of an upset. Still don't expect that, the Eagles will probably win with easy margin.

Last week No Dakota St barely slid across the finish line. That should have the little buffs pumped up this week to prove a point. Coastal isn't bad but they'll get pummeled.

Same with Villanova. I don't believe Sam Houston is ready for the big time again. Nova should keep them at bay and not need last minute heroics to win.

If any of them fall it might be New Hampshire. Don't know if Chattanooga is a real contender but they appear to be legit. So NH might get caught napping while looking ahead.

I tend to agree, but ... The Richmond OL ain't small -- lots of 300-pounders there -- and CC thumped them pretty bad. (Spiders scored just 15 points). That was just one of several games we watched that day, so I can't be sure, but I get the impression the Chantis "give angles" really well, and rotate players a lot.
 
Down to three choices.

Mocs put up a good fight, but just couldn't get it done -- moved the ball way better than UNH, but could not punch it in.
