I count 5 potential bid thieves.

Potential Bid Thieves:
St. Lawrence
Widener
St. Norbert
Bates
Pacific

Which would mean whatever you think are the top 15 Pool C teams at the moment, they are safe.

This is how things stack up for the most recent regional rankings. Rankings can change obviously but this gets everything into one place.

Bold is Pool A locked
Italic is one of multiple RR teams alive in a single conference tournament so at least one will fall to Pool C
Regular is only RR team left in conference tournament
Red is in Pool C

The final regional rankings in Region 05 will be so critical for which teams garner Pool C bids.

I think the order #4-#7 should be:
Johns Hopkins
Catholic
Salisbury
Elizabethtown

and I have all 4 currently within my Pool C teams.

But the teams that end up 6th and 7th could have a hard getting to the table, especially if there's a bid thief or two tomorrow (or 1 tonight).

The resumes are all "Pool C worthy" resumes. But the strength of the region may prevent 1-2 from getting to the table.

That said, these teams that will probably be ranked 5th or higher in their regions--not sure any of them get picked over a Region 05 team:
Stevens
Cortland St.
UW-Oshkosh
Carroll
Washington & Lee
Bates
Trinity CT


I think regions 5 and 7 could dominate Pool C bids, leaving the other 8 regions pretty static in the table.

Regardless of what happens tomorrow in the ODAC and SAA,  I think Region 6 (a) never gets a 2nd team to the table, (b) doesn't have a single Pool C selection.

Pacific replacing Puget Sound in the Region 10 rankings would be amazing for Whitman, adding 3 wins vRRO for them.

Not sure if that changes much. So much of Hosting and "Seeding" when it comes to Whitman is dictated by geography.

Which would mean whatever you think are the top 15 Pool C teams at the moment, they are safe.

The win over Vassar helped St. Lawrence in the three big ways: WP, SOS, and vRRO. With their SOS now above the "optically bad" threshold of 0.500, and now with 2 wins v RRO, I think St. Lawrence has played themselves into Pool C territory, even if they lose tomorrow.

Pacific getting smoked early by Whitman.

We may be down to only three potential bid thieves.

* At first, I put Cortland ahead of Salisbury but going to switch those two. The last few are still very much in danger of Sunday upsets.

The last spot in this trial run came with St. Joseph's (Maine), WPI, Cortland, Stevens, Salisbury, Washington & Lee, Otterbein, Carroll, Loras and Redlands on the table for the last pick and I went with Salisbury.

Region 1 - Amherst, Tufts, Trinity (Conn.) (3)

Region 2 - Springfield, Babson (2)

Region 3 - (0)

Region 4 - (0)

Region 5 - Johns Hopkins, Catholic, Elizabethtown, Salisbury (4)

Region 6 - (0)

Region 7 - Trine, DePauw, John Carroll, Marietta (4)

Region 8 - Millikin (1)

Region 9 - UW-WW, Wartburg, UW-Oshkosh (3)

Region 10 - MHBU, East Texas Baptist, UC-Santa Cruz (3)

Man my head would be spinning after region 3!Keep up the great work.Who needs the NCAA(Lol).

 Hoping the bracket/pods selection doesn't go wild with the increase in max distance before flights to 600 miles. Just because one can be under 600 miles, doesn't mean it should. Probably half the field(Mideast to Northeast) could be a 5-hour bus ride max and still provide inter-regional competition within a pod. No reason to endure 11-hour bus trips in the winter for some "national" aspect to the bracket. I'm remembering Ron Rohn's Muhlenberg team being sent to Bowdoin(442 miles) about 10 years ago. No fun for anyone.

Remember Scranton played up at Bowdoin (The Polar Bear was awesome)also a beautiful campus!I guess sometimes they can't get around it!I have been to alot of Colleges and University's following the Lady Royals and Royals! I really liked that campus and Amherst and many more

Haha, conference tournaments present a whole different element because that is where a lot of bid thieves come in. Quite a few regular season champions that did not win their conference tournaments today.

That was the 2nd weekend(sectional); you expect traveling for the 2nd weekend because of fewer options; I was referring to the 1st weekend(regional).

If you want a LONG 1st weekend travel, George Fox to Arlington VA was definitely an outlier and intentional by NCAA.  and then fly back again to Amherst before they cancelled 2020
