Not to mention for a couple years Alfred was in the PAC.  That put a team from New York in the South Region!

Been wrong before.  Will be wrong again.

I have not had a lot of time to read the boards lately, no -- just squeezed out a little time on coffee break at work.

Doesn't take much time thanks to the software, though.

Well, I deleted the question which included the poll, but the poll itself didn't go away.  Sigh.   Here are the results, they'll go away as soon as Pat takes care of it:

Which visiting team has the best chance of winning in Week 1:

  • Mary Hardin-Baylor (at Trinity) - 36 (60%)
  • Ferrum (at Wesley) - 0 (0%)
  • Washington & Jefferson (at Bridgewater) - 16 (26.7%)
  • Johns Hopkins (at Thiel) - 6 (10%)
  • No visiting teams will win - 2 (3.3%)
   
Total Votes: 60

here are my south region predictions (not touching other regions except in the pick 'em) for this week

trinity 31 - umhb 28 (ot) - this should be a regional final

thiel 24 - jhu 10 - both teams have solid defenses, but thiel has more offense

w&j 41 - b'water 38 - both teams have great offenses, but b'water has struggled against the pass some, and w&j throws it a lot - along with the texas game, these 2 games could be among the best of the weekend

wesley 38 - ferrum 17 - this is not the result that i WANT as a usasac fan, but it's what i think will happen - i know ferrum fans will say "fc can score 24 on anybody", but they didn't against cnu last weekend - ferrum defense is suspect to the pass and wesley has big, fast, physical receivers and they run just enough to keep you honest and guessing - wesley is also very stout against the run, and ferrum can't throw it when they NEED to (they are effective if they throw when it's not expected) - pitts is an exciting option qb, though, and he could single-handedly keep the panthers in the game

Narch,

Nice write ups and predictions. I think UMHB will knock off Trinity though. I agree it is a tough matchup in the first round thought it would be a good 2nd round match up though.
GO TOMCATS!!!

pitttbcw - i had a tough time with that one...and my (ot) prediction shows just how confident i am  ;D - i picked trinity to win the region over w&j in the pick 'em contest, though, so i felt that i had to remain true to my bracket - this is my first foray predicting games beyond the usasac...i paid a little more attention to the rest of the region this season because of the season the monarchs had...we'll see how it goes - i think i finished 32 - 12 predicting usasac games this year...not bad

PittTBCW

Not bad at all!!

I hope Thiel is part of your winners this week!!!
GO TOMCATS!!!

NO, Tusky, You cannot MOON Dr. Geisert!

2 - 2 on my predictions...ouch - i missed the toughest games...the others were cupcakes - not good

congrats to all the winners this week - that score isn't good for the usasac

  Wesley played a very good game today and their special teams set the tone early for a very one sided victory.  The D virtually shut down Ferrums running game and other than one nice pass and grab held Ferrums passing game ineffective.  Ferrum tried to play with eight men back in pass coverage but Wesley adjusted and ran the ball well and threw some swing passes that Ferrum couldn't. Lee had two catches today that not many receiver on any level would make.
  The game was played with a a minimum of penalties as well as the striped shirts didn't get real involved. I think there was maybe 5 penalties all day. If Wesley plays this well next week they may very well give MHB quick exit too. Maybe  Wesley's second trip to Texas will have a better ending than their last

The UMHB defense was incredible today.  They are big, strong and fast.  Trinity's offensive line was no match for them today.  The D has been playing like this since the Hardin-Simmons game.  Hope they do the same next week.  It will be nice to have a home game.

For UMHB to shut down Trinity today has to be a great sign for them. I am glad they will get to host a well deserved playoff game. Congrats to UMHB and all the playoff victors today!
