FB: College Conference of Illinois and Wisconsin

Trinity is right behind Wheaton and their win today doesn't appear to be included yet.

Not final but look at UWRF and UMHB NPI compared to Wheaton. That UWRF win over UWO.

Texas Lutheran coming back to tie with 33 seconds left and then winning in OT

Looks like Cortland is indeed going to jump NCC in final NPI.  NCC will be the #5 overall seed and traveling in quarters and semis again if chalk holds.


Top 8 look like:
1. SJU
2. HSU
3. Salisbury
4. Cortland
5. NCC
6. Mount Union
7. DePauw
8. Lake Forest


I assume this means SJU/Lake Forest will be paired in 1 quad and Salisbury/Mount Union in another as those seeds matchup perfectly and are the only ones within 500 miles of one another between 1-4 and 5-8 (NCC also within 500 miles of SJ)

That would leave Hardin Simmons to pair with DePauw and NCC to pair with Cortland since both are over 500 miles and that would be the straight seeding? Very interested to see how the comittee pairs these top 8 as i know assembling the rest of the bracket matters as well.

Yep. Looks like we wanted UWO the whole time as they would have stayed above but also would have given Wheaton an NPI bump (likely over UMHB). Doesn't look good for the Thunder. Marietta may not even drop below them once calculated.

[CarollFan]

If Wheaton goes to Isthmus, I don't know WIAC tiebreaker but UWO, UWS and UWW all have same record.

[USee]

UWW is 6-4 (with the OOC loss to UMHB). If that eliminates them then it's Stout by virtue of H2H over UWO I would think.

[CarollFan]

Ok well if it's UWS, I mean Carroll 28-16. Would be nice for CCIW to finally win that bowl.

[WUPHF]

I believe the Isthmus Bowl defers to the conference tiebreakers to determine the best team that did not get an NCAA invite.

If Wheaton had offered to travel to NPU and won, would that have been enough to improve their NPI by a hundredth or two?

[deepthroat]

November not too kind to NPU.

[wheatie barefooter]

Serious question ... when they run the NPI numbers, they must be using last week's numbers to determine this week's new numbers, right?  Then are the numbers run again using the new NPI numbers for each team?  If that's how it works, I'm holding out hope for a positive bump for Wheaton and a negative one for UMHB!

[USee]

New numbers are up and have the Thunder in at #12 pool C.

Do we have any idea if any other games needs to be updated?
Looks like UWRF dropped out when they updated NPI's.

If they stay WashU your favorite Isthmus opponent will be waiting for you?

[USee]

I don't see any results not yet in........

yet another new update has the Thunder back at 13 after John Carrol jumps them......no idea if that's final.

[NCC2010]

I don't see any results not yet in........

i think they incorrectly have trinity texas as 7-3 when they should be 8-2? unless I'm reading it wrong
