South Region playoffs

I think one thing that has been overlooked in the UMHB bracket is the travel. If Wesley/Hobart winner has to fly west or Cal Luth/Linfield has to fly east and that team wins again they will have to fly cross country a second time if UMHB is still standing. Just a Hypothetical!!

Good luck Centre Colonels tomorrow in your playoff game!

cnu85, i picked you guys to win.  the qb is as annoying as you will find.  he avoids the rush as well as anyone.  they do nothing fancy, the d is good, the o is average.  protect the ball.  the special teams are very good.  good luck tomorrow.

[CNU85]

The wheels have fallen off the CNU bus. In fact, the engine fell off too! And the bumpers, fenders, sun roof, mirrors.

With 1:20 left before half, CNU down by 7 to Kean 14-7. Halftime score 34-7. 

Let's see what happens in second half.

Wesleydad- you were right. CNU is not taking care of ball. It is costing them. 

[CNU85]

Looking at stats of the Kean/CNU game. CNU lead in just about every category. Yards passing, yards rushing, TOP, fewer penalties. The key stat other than the score - turnovers. CNU had 6. Kean is very opportunistic. They scored 3 times in 53 seconds at end of first half to blow it open. CNU didn't allow a first down in third quarter. But Kean had too large of a lead and CNU was forced to go for it on 4th down almost every possession. Congrats to Kean. Beat Salisbury!!!

So, I'm guessing F&M replaces Hampden-Sydney in the regional rankings? 2-losses and just got their 2nd win over RRO. Was just checking to see who it might be, hoping it would be Millsaps but looks like F&M.

that would be my guess. you almost had it with Hardin Simmons, as they would have dropped with a loss.

Maybe LC will take care of that next week. That is as long as Millsaps takes care of BSC. Ehh, we just need to win ours and not worry about anyone else.

Yep. It took 4 overtimes today, but my Generals did get it done. A win next week makes 8-2, probably 1-1 vs RRO (depends on F&M getting into the rankings). SOS will be good, but 2 losses will put them in the bottom of a bracket. Be interesting to see where they travel. If they lose next week to a weak Shenandoah because they are looking ahead, they can enjoy Belton, Dover, or Alliance, so I'm praying they don't pull a game like they did at Bridgewater.

So suppose the committee wants to place UMHB and Wesley in different brackets to avoid a repeat match-up (at least until potentially later). What are the odds that Wesley gets shipped to the east with Mount Union? They had a relatively easy road to the semis last year where Linfield, Wesley, and UMHB got stuck in the cannibalistic "south" bracket.

The committee is probably very comfortable having the rematch in the third round, the round of 8.

I concur.  There is no reason why the committee would break South Region tradition.
