Not that it matters much, but the D3Hoops bracket has Whitworth listed with an 18-9 record when it's really 19-8.

Go Bucs !

"Not to mention that a large majority of the posts on this thread are just utter nonsense....."

If you want more posters, don't discourage people.    We are not all experts.  Everyone is encouraged to post his/her thoughts and NOT be ridiculed.

Perfectly stated sir !

How in Hades can a program tighten up with 3 bye weeks I ask myself?

3 bye weeks?   Only one is this week.

GT

I think he is counting Willamette 9/30 and Lewis & Clark 10/7 as pretty much bye weeks after the real one this week 9/23.

I agree, I don't see a 2nd one coming from the NWC.  My assumption is that the Conference Champ game will be the Battle of the Whits part 3 - and then who knows from there.  The Bucs have had odd struggles this year, IMO it is the overall youth and lack of depth at the true PG position. However, I am excited for the future, lots of really great guys coming up in the program.

Seeds are identified in the summary incorrectly. 3 should be George Fox not Pacific.  Correct in the schedule though.

So the Whitworth men just won 6 games in 9 days.  I have to assume that is a rare feat indeed.  Can anyone find a situation like that in recent history?  I know the Whitman women just won 4 games in 5 days, that has to be rare as well.

11/6 vs Redlands
11/12 at UW Platteville
11/13 at UW Whitewater
11/20 vs Alumni (Exh) - always fun to watch

Lots of information dropped yesterday and today. Predetermined sites confirmed. Bids now open to hosts those sites. Host locations to be announced the week of February 8th. The return to championships manual is lengthy one with 40+ pages of protocols.

So where might we find or see this information?

Rumor has it that Bridgeland may be taking a few players with him including Duckett.  Will see soon enough I guess.  It will be interesting to see where Whitman lands this season, and the impact on the rest of the conference.

And I stated as much back in April  :D
