FB: Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference

Latest NPI has the Johnnies down to #3...

That was bound to happen.

Syverson's numbers are remarkable. But they actually make Eerdman's even more so given he didn't have that extra Covid season.

[retagent]

It will be interesting, but not meaning much else, to see the vote totals on UMU and Cortland after their close victories. It didn't affect the Johnnies much when they had the close call against the Cobbers. Also, and this may be jinx worthy, but having Bethel move up in the NPI would bode well for the Johnnies  to get the first round bye even if they stumble. I didn't say that.

I hope we play like our season is on the line! No doubt they'll realize the importance of the game to state the obvious (conference championship), but, as in any big game, I'm nervous.

Is this weeks game a noon start?

Yep. D3 had it as 1, I'd assume MIAC site is correct

[DuffMan]

Noon is correct.  They announced that many times at Clemens yesterday.

[OzJohnnie]

Man, BU cannot get any love from the rankings.  They are up to 24.  Logan Hansen thinks they are dangerous, though, and rates the championship game chances as 56/44 in SJU's favour.  Massey is down so I don't know what he thinks.

Big game this weekend, though.  Focus, Johnnies.  Come out hard and execute.

Latest NPI has the Johnnies down to #3 and the Royals at #19. Oh, and Marietta punches in at #27.

With both teams NPI being in the Top 20 the loser shouldn't drop out of Top 20 NPI...IMHO

And our pages all say "All Times Eastern" -- so yes.

Oz, I think Hansen had Wartburg beating SJU so not worried.

Oz, I think Hansen had Wartburg beating SJU so not worried.

Like most data, it's way more accurate going into Week 11 than Week 1.

[OzJohnnie]

Massey rates the game 63/37 for the Johnnies, so a little stronger lead than Hansen.  Hansen is 53/47, so much closer.

I wonder if the school will do a hype video.  It should be banging.
