I understand your frustration (as a fan of another North Region team), but WHEN did you feel they deserved to be sent on the road?
Regular season excellence deserves its reward.




From season to season the top 4 seeds should all be treated equally. Having equal number of quality teams in each bracket (and we all pretty much know who those teams are). (ya I know....too expensive, so you sacrifice any resemblance of fairness to all teams)

Looking forward to Heidelberg or John Carol knocking out MUC this year and having a possible undefeated CCIW Champ be number 1 seed in the North.

Yeah, but just think, if we cut and pasted like the MIAC we could catch up to their number of pages before the end of the season!

It could happen....then we'd probably end up with a WIAC team as the #1 in the West.......and I'm guessing you would not be happy about that...

That could happen anyway depending on the NCAA Regional Rankings. If they divy out the power teams throughout the brackets like suggested, it wouldn't matter because each bracket would be equal in strength. Therefore....no questions asked.

Yes--my point was that Mt. Union has often been moved east which then allowed the UW-WW to go to the North opening up more chances for a more even distribution (or at least less heavy West region) and/or more home games for the Cats!

And still the West was overloaded.

Get a look at the "New Look' yet?  I will find Message Boards without anyone's help, thank-you very much.

Speakin' of pick 'ems.....I don't play but I did put in writing PLU over WU. Who else did?

I did in the ASC pick'em.

I picked PLU. One of the few I got right.

Apparently, a major feature of the D3football.com "New Look" is the disappearance (or camouflaged location) of the "Message Boards" link. Aw, no problem...nobody ever uses those Message Boards anyway.

For you "old folks" who don't do well with change---the message boards are under the "Network" menu:  "d3boards".

You are welcome.

By the way, they have been in this spot for the last three years.

If anyone ever stops and reads the content on the site, I wrote a front-page story that details some of the changes, INCLUDING where to find the message boards. There are only three places to find it. Should be possible.

By the way, d3football.com is not in NETWORK menu. An extra step is now needed to access that board. Good thing I bookmark it on my desktop.

D3football.com isn't in the network menu on D3football.com, but that menu hasn't changed in the last three years. You wouldn't need to click on it from that site anyway. The logo at the top of the page gets you back to the front page.

Come on, Pat. That's a really weak response.

Previously when one accessed the Home page there was a large space clearly labelled "Message Boards." The remodel has clearly reduced the visibility of that link. Since I expect that the message boards are probably the most used/read section of the website, it seems reasonable they'd get a little "floor space" on the home page.
