WOW...WOW...WOW......Linfield, St. John's, Whitewater all in the same bracket. Holy Crap!

Well, Cap makes the show, playing at NCC and the winner of that one against Albiob--Wabash winner. Mount gets Mt StJoseph. Its about time there is a playoff to determine which is the better Mount!!! The winner plays Augustana.

I LOVE this bracket! Augie in the second round, and then hopefully Wabash in the third. This will be cool! If Mount plays well, they will be there.

Congrats to Cap. I never thought it would happen but it did. All the right things lead up to it. Don't make the committee regret its decision.

Well hats off to Capital for getting in the dance...I tip my hat and admit I was incorrect about their chances. The wrinkles that came through in this final week opened the door. Now Crusaders, go take care of business.

Did anyone else see the two ONU/MUC clips they showed during the opening montage?

GO MOUNT AND CAPITAL. Do us proud.

Better yet....GO CAP! Make a run and then we can see you guys in the regional final. Now that would be COOL!

say what you want, it should have been both Cap and ONU or neither.
The only people happier than Cap with their victory over ONU was the NCAA; they could rationalize keeping ONU out.

look at previous posts eagle. we all knew that if another team from the oac got it in would be capital. i really don't think the ncaa regulations had anything to do with it.

Congrats Cap! Welcome to the dance.

Raiders get a great setup. Despite the loss the are guaranteed 2 home games (if they win) and a Wabash loss would give them 3 home games. Great break for the Raiders. If they had moved Whitewater to the north brackett, it would have changed everything.

If you think for one second that the NCAA garbage wasn't following ONU in the selection commitee's eyes, then you're a fool. When ONU beat Mount, everyone concurred that a tie at the top with coaches voting for ONU, knowing Mount would get an at-large was the ONLY way you could expect that the Polar Bears would get the nod. Leaving it to the selection commitee was a death sentence for ONU.

Cap loses to Otters and Mount, both teams that ONU beat and that makes Cap the hands down choice?
Spin the numbers anyway you want, both teams finished 2nd in the OAC and one gets in and the other doesn't? LIke I've said before fairness is not in the formula.
I know, as a Bear fan I'm frustrated and just venting.

CAP deserved to get in! I've been pulling for the the BEARS alll year but what's done is DONE! Let's root for Both the OAC teams to make us proud! ROLL~~Raiders and Cap!!!

I think the appeal will be dropped in Ada...

I wouldn't overlook North Central, Cap fans. Don't make those plans to C'ville yet.
