FB: Wisconsin Intercollegiate Athletic Conference

Also, I love that Bethel made it.

Mount Union has a cakewalk go the semis, whoever wins the presumed NCC/UWLC also has a cakewalk go the semis. That's what happens when you mostly get to face the east.

It looks like we were both right. Congrats to UWW and UWL.

Yes, congrats to the Johnnies and Bethel as well.

Wow, is it just me or is the bracket pretty lopsided? NCC and Mount won't break much of a sweat getting to the semi's. Meanwhile, on the other side, there could be at least 6 teams have a case to make it there. MHB, SJU, UWW, Wheaton, Linfield, Bethel  and maybe even Central. Brutal.

I like UWW's first two rounds, but Wheaton kind of scares me. Gonna be tough.

I've noticed it's really hard to win National Championships without beating good teams.

UWW knows that better than anyone.

Yeah, I'm glad we got in.

That NCC v. UWL game is a huge one in Rd 2. Geographical/money constraints aside, UWL felt like a very logical 4 seed. I wouldn't mind that setup if I was those teams. Winner gets the toughest game of the region out of the way rd 2. Honestly, I'm probably more annoyed if I'm NCC than UWL.

The NCC UWL matchup feels like the 2019 Mount vs NCC matchup. Very unfortunate bracket placement for two really good teams. I'm really curious to watch that one.

Jesus...if UWW manages to beat Wheaton. I think we'll have to travel to SJU. I thought whitewater did enough to earn home field throw out. Stagg bowl runner up, undefeated in the best conference, tough NC schedule.

Of course a lot has to happen for that though. And I don't envy SJU's second round match up.

I sure hope it plays out that way.

I thought I understood regional rankings before tonight. Why don't WIAC teams a vRRO with UWRF joining the rankings tonight?

You've got to play them as they come Hazzben.  NCC may get WIAC #2 while UWW may get CCIW #2.  Best of luck to the Warhawks and Congrats to your Bethel squad for getting in... well deserved!
Agree that the lower half of the UWW bracket looks crazy with a lot of good programs.  Will be watching those three games with keen interest.

Well, then it's going to be hard to root for the Johnnies.
