That's a fun matchup. And W&J/Witt should be an intriguing matchup as well. Lots of good games here.

Let's make sure the Grizzlies drive back South after Saturday, while we head North to Wisconsin. No offense Macalester...

This is the best draw and maybe-the-best team Wabash has taken into the playoffs ever. I'm so excited.

Wabash got one hell of a draw.

Agree.  I'm really excited about the path that Wabash has.  That's not me looking past anybody (Franklin).  No easy games in the tournament.  But- I like Wabash's position here.

I'd like to see this particular matchup in September. Kind of surprised Franklin is "seeded" as high as they are though. I was expecting Grizzlies would head to Witt.

Witt loss may have been the best thing that ever happened. Wabash's draw is one of the best, if not the best, in the field.

Also: St.Thomas / St. John's. Whew. That's awesome.

Without North Central, they were probably sixth in the North pecking order and with everything else that's a #5 "seed", as it were. But the NCAA doesn't seed.

I like the draw, but it sure won't be easy.  Potentially requires wins against 4 of the 5 top ranked teams in D3 to close the deal.  How awesome would that be?

I'm almost positive the NCAA DOES seed, they just don't let us peons see the seeds (or final regional rankings).  My guess would be that Wabash is #4, Franklin is #5.

Who did Adrian anger? Lisle is within a bus ride to Alliance...

Agreed.  Overall I like the bracket, but with some quibbles.  And (8-2) Adrian instead of (6-4) Benedictine going to Alliance is probably my #1 complaint.  The MIAA is not exactly a power conference, but they are almost certainly better than the NACC.

I suspect it was still penny-pinching.  Bus miles cost less than airplane trips, but still add up.  Adrian to Alliance plus Lisle to Wheaton is several hundred miles less than the reverse.
