Keep an eye on the W&J at Thomas More game this weekend.  If Thomas More springs the upset, Thiel won't have a win against a regionally ranked opponent.

Poll posted.

These seem to be the last five 'big' games of the season for the South Region.

One-loss DePauw vs. undefeated Wabash in Week 12  is certainly a big game for DPU, in the South Region thanks to their SCAC membership.  A win gives them one against a regionally ranked opponent and would have to vault them into the thick of Pool C consideration.

Interesting Projections Pat! Wow, a one loss W&J who doesn't even get into the dance. :o Moving John Carroll into the South is a new twist. I'm sure some of this will change by selection day, its a start though.

My best guess is that Union loses two, RPI doesn't get in over W&J and things are back on track. As for the John Carroll prediction, gotta put them somewhere (if they get in) never considered the South but it is a possibility.

According to PCole's column on "projecting the playoffs" it seems he thinks they need some help to get in. I was a bit surprised that he left them out of his projections but he should understand the playoff picture better than I do. It looks like a low QOWI is what's hurting W&J at this point. Looking at Pat's projections, it seems Capital needs to beat JCU & Wabash needs to beat Depauw for Monon Bell to knock them out along with W&J winning vs TMC next week for W&J to get in (at least this is what I am taking from Pat's column).

Disclaimer: others in the south could also lose which may get W&J in but I listed the most likely slip-ups based on Pat's analysis.

Bob,

I am sensing some antimousity toward PCole. That's new ;)

just a little TRULY friendly banter between pcole & me regarding W&J.  That's all.  Nothing more, nothing less.

You could also as easily see sending John Carroll to UMHB. Shorter bus ride to Ferrum for BC and a plane flight either way. Athough if you assume that Bridgewater is a better bet to lose at UMHB, thereby assuring a Texas vs. Texas second round, its possible.  I also feel that the committee may sway toward keeping BC on a bus first week since a committee memeber is on the panel. I know they can't hear what the rest of the crew is saying but I think they would avoid flying BC out unless its absolutely necessary (committee courtesy). ;) Pat, any thoughts?

Actually, W&J is competing against Linfield, Thiel, Wesley and Whitworth for the 4th Pool B and the last 3 Pool C teams whom I will guess are Wartburg/Coe/Central, St John Fisher and John Carroll.  They are in the same boat as Concordia-Moorhead who has a last minute loss to St John's.

The only Pool C teams listed in the South are John Carroll and UMHB.

As for the bus ride, John Carroll fits nicely into the northern half of the bracket.

Aw llamguy, we would love to have Bridgewater come to Belton! :)
