FB: Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference

[Freebird]

Free-you guys got a great match-up with Concordia of Wis. and then Norberts or UW-EC, looks like your loosing streak will come to an end. Hope to meet in the finals!

Lets hope we can both take this gift/shake up and run with it!

I don't know about "lookin' good" for a SJU/Bethel rematch.

There's an unbeaten team in Pella that will have something to say about that.

Cockiness, I love it. It will be a hard fall when Redlands comes in and chops down your Johnnies.

That comes from a Central backer...

We learned our lesson from Redlands a few years ago-- the cold alone won't make the Bulldogs die.  But we'll take a home game in the playoffs for sure.

Hopefully you will be able to make the trip, though!

WOW - That's all I can say!

Too bad your Johnnies couldn't come out to Redlands next week. The forcast is 76 degrees and sunny. How is the weather looking for next week?

holy crap! what got into the selection committee? for the first time in years- possibly forever- they actually did the right thing!

We went from expecting both BU & SJU playing on the road to both at home and lookin' good for a rematch on 12/1 (at Bethel)

Amen to that.  The committee had to bring sanity to the brackets some year...Looks like this is the year.

They are sayin' 42 and sunny, very nice for this time of year.

congrats to St.John's from the Liberty League. Well, the good news is that it's possible to have another RPI/SJU matchup this year. The bad news is the RPI has to go through the Mount to get there. I am not thrilled with your bracket but it's postseason football baby!!

Radio, I think by "lookin' good", Johnnie fans are just happy that they don't have to face your Dutch in the first round and don't have to face UW-Whitewater at all, coupled with what has to be considered a favorable draw for Bethel.  I certainly wouldn't take it as a shot at your team--they have to be considered the favorite in the West--but didn't your outlook brighten a little, too, when you found out that Whitewater got moved?

[stanbob]

I haven't even dared look, what is being said over on the
wiac board?

TDT...when you come to, log on and see your early Christmas present from the NCAA.
Drink lots of water and extra vitamin B.

Absolutely - this thing is wide open now.  Whitewater would have been a HUGE favorite in this region, while there are several teams who have to think they can make the trip to Alliance for the semifinals.

[KitchenSink]

Good luck to Bethel and the Johnnies both.

I agree with the wide open assessment of the Central bracket.  Quite a gathering of teams who find ways to win close games.

Gonna be fun to watch.  And then a trip to Alliance ... ?  (Go get "em)

[DuffMan]

What a weird outcome for the brackets.  Should be interesting!
