Closest D3 title game in history. Central (Iowa) beat Ithaca by two points in 1974.

True. 1:20 was more than enough time to score.

Probably should have stuck with the original playcall on the 2-point conversion, or stuck with the misdirection. The play was far too telegraphed.
Honestly, I'm not even sure it would have mattered. NCC had no answer for Boyes and Cortland's offense in the second half

Man, Cortland earned that. Congrats to them.

Truth!

I don't know if Cortland's going to win this, but Zac Boyes is the best player on the field, and it's not especially close.

EIU's Head Coach is heading to Duke as OL Coach. Being that Jeff Thorne is an EIU grad...isn't this the perfect time for him to get a serious look at EIU? Would do a great job recruiting the state.
Would he take it?
Cushing was making north of 372k at EIU in 2019. Would assume Throne would more than dbl his salary.
IMO, no chance he takes it. Crazy if he doesn't get a call though.
EIU has been struggling financially, so I'm not sure he would increase his salary significantly. There's also the question of where he and his family want to live: Naperville or Charleston, IL? I suspect EIU would love to hire Thorne, but the job may not be appealing to him.
NCC just announced on Twitter Jeff Thorne is stepping down and Brad Spencer is taking over as head coach.
He is taking a job at Western Michigan.
I'm guessing to be closer to his son at Michigan State? It would make sense. Also, Tim Lester just got an extension at WMU so there's a WW South/NCC/CCIW connection there.

Since no one seems to like my thought of a 2 loss team making the field (I truly believe at least 1 will get in with all the mediocre 1 loss options), here's my take on a bracket with La Crosse, BSC, H-S, Wheaton, and Johns Hopkins as pool C.
Greenville @ (1) Mary Hardin-Baylor
Hardin-Simmons @ Trinity (TX)
Huntingdon @ Birmingham-Southern
Redlands @ (2) Linfield
Aurora @ (1) UW-Whitewater
Rose-Hulman @ Central
Wheaton @ UW-La Crosse
Lake Forest @ (2) St John's
Carnegie Mellon @ (1) North Central
DePauw @ Albion
Washington & Lee @ Salisbury
Springfield @ (2) Mount Union
Springfield @ (1) Delaware Valley
Johns Hopkins @ RPI
Endicott @ Muhlenberg
Framingham St @ (2) Cortland
2 flights round 1, I think just 1 round 2.
I had similar thoughts on my bracket. I had Del Valley and Cortland heading up one bracket. I put the H-S/Trinity winner facing the Redlands/Linfield winner and Huntingdon/B-S facing UMHB/Wash & Lee (because I had Johns Hopkins facing Salisbury.) The Alabama teams will have to fly and someone will have to fly to the West Coast anyway so why not avoid an ASC rematch?
I sent Rose-Hulman to NCC and DePauw to Mt. Union.

Blame it on the freight train.

Just a heart-breaking way for Wheaton to lose... Penalty for spiking the ball after a TD and two missed PAT attempts. Ugh!
