Congrats to Carnegie Mellon on making the post season!

Yeah, I'm definitely going to find somewhere I can watch the selection show.  I hope CMU gets a competitive first round match-up.
When we are gone the only thing that matters is what we have done.  Not what we wanted to do or what we failed to accomplish.  How will you be remembered?

Bracket for us makes no sense at all.  WJ was ranked higher than CNU before this weekend, and now they're playing at CNU?  Dickinson is obviously the 8 seed in the bracket, playing at Wesley.  Theoretically, that makes CMU #4.  Why are we playing Milsaps?  Did the figure airfare to Pittsburgh would be cheaper than Norfolk (CNU)?  Seems like you've got a normal bracket if it's Milsaps at CNU and WJ at CMU. 

BDTartan

Doesn't make sense to me either as it was pointed out on another board that W&J at CMU and CNU at Milsaps would be cheaper travel wise and W&J at CMU would probably make quite a bit more money than Milsaps at CMU.

Just for clarification it is spelled Millsaps  ;D

BDTartan

Yeah, sorry.  Keyboard slipped ;D.  Millsaps on a 7 game win streak, who did they lose their first three to?

Millsaps lost 52-28 to cross-town rival Mississippi College (5-5/ASC 3-5).

Millsaps lost 41-38 to Louisiana College (4-5/ASC 2-5).

Millsaps lost 35-34 to Huntingdon AL (6-4).

Thanks for the info Ralph.  It looks like they took their lumps early and rebounded well, especially with the win over Trinity.

BD,

Millsaps has a former DI coach and he is known for Defense, it has taken close to a year and a half for the defense to get it figured out, the first three games unfortunately fell in that timetable.  I do not think the scores would be the same with the current Millsaps team.  Dubose also stated he wanted to use non-conference as a preseason of sorts to get ready for conference play, so not sure Millsaps had their best foot forward early on?  Should be an interesting matchup this weekend if CMU likes to run alot.

The Wesley bracket is perplexing.  And CMU and W&J can't meet until regional final.

Yeah, I noticed that.  Probably not likely, but anything could happen.

As far as Millsaps D goes.................like I said, I don't anything about them.  CMU is 4th in the nation in rushing I believe.  Their scoring defense also ranks 4th.

Remember when I said the NCAA would baffle the gurus?

Millsaps may not have seen CMU's wing-t.

Yes, you may have a point cwru70.  Also, if they haven't seen it at all since Dubose has been there then it may give their defense fits considering him being a former D1 coach then he hasn't seen it in a long time.

Wow, over 400 total yards.  I take it that CWRU solved its turnover problems in this game.
