Redlands, which is likely to be one of the top four teams in the West Region when the final regional rankings are released, does not get a home game, and gets shipped out to play the defending national champion, Mary Hardin-Baylor.

"It was not the original proposal," said Catanzaro. "I can tell that we really wanted to have Redlands host a game out there this year. ... We tried, and that was a no-go with the NCAA."

Translation:  "The NCAA told us our #1 job was to screw MHB, and this was the only way to make it work."  What a bunch of clowns.

I'm excited to follow this board this week.

Linfield, win this one and come on out to SJU again... Finally!

[D O.C.]

Chapman tough at home.
We'll see what we can do.
Keeping penalty yardage under 40 would help.

How on earth can you read that and think UMHB is the team that got screwed here?

I know you're becoming a bigger curmudgeon by the day...but UR has a very real shot at an at large if Linfield wins the NWC.

If UR gets a bid then I'll admit I was wrong. But I'm not going to be wrong.

I admit I was wrong. Congratulations Chapman and Redlands. Now go win some playoff games for the SCIAC!

Way to get in RFB. Is Belton nice this time of year?

Temps from 38 - 59 degrees with drizzle.
The second round games there are usually miserable.

You were both screwed. I just think only UMHB was screwed on purpose.

Based on anything in particular or is this just run of the mill tin hat stuff?

I don't know why there is all of the drama over the pods, I look at them and think it is actually pretty well laid out with some great match ups. Looking forward to this run, hope to see some deep runs. (Of course I am not meaning Redlands )
