This is wild.  I need to read this board full-time just to keep up.

I could also just IM you updates as the day goes on if needed....

Thanks upstate.  If I could just get past the firewall at school and download aim, I'd be all set!

Id give rowan a 2 seed based on last years performance.  Those guys are clutch.  Untill they get beaten at home or in the playoffs by an east team, Id give Rowan some points for just being a good, clutch, playoff, east team.

That doesn't hold any weight...That's like saying the Steelers should be a #2 seed in the playoffs this year b/c of last years performance.

At least Rowan has only one loss (d3).  different story.  Im just sick of east teams that have one good year getting high seeds and then getting smoked in the playoffs.  Rowan should at least get some points for their playoff experience.

I'd concede giving Rowan a higher seed over Dickinson... But you have to earn it in the current year. The teams with 1 loss or less have earned their spot, regardless if they get beat early or not.

So your going to put a 1 loss Springfield over a 1 loss Rowan?  One loss is one loss.

It has almost become laughable the things Rowan has done to other higher seeded teams than them.  I'm OK with some away games during playoffs.  I'm done with football for my kids.  It's now my turn to drag the wife and four kids all over the North east for some good playoff football.  

I'm actually looking forward to at least one or two nice road trips.  But please, NOT SCHENECTEDY!!!!

Man, totally mistook you for Orange....

Orange graduated with my wife and they are on each others buddy lists....

My bad...

Why not?

Not digging propped collars and the loafer wearing BMW driving students?

No problem upstate :-)

Things in the Rockies are good.  Gorgeous day today and only a 4-day week.  That means off to sunny Buffalo Friday morning!

Maybe I'm not reading their record correctly but it looks like it's 6-2? Or are you saying one game just doesn't count?

If we're saying that, Fisher is now 8-0... Springfield game didn't count.

Its not the college, I thought the college was very nice.  It was the surrounding town I had to stay in the night before

They are 6-2, but are 6-1 vs Division 3 teams....their other loss was vs a school in a higher division.  Those contests dont count towards regional rankings or the QOWI....

where do you think Rowan will fall.

[Jonny Utah]

Actually the game doesnt count.  1-AA games dont count towards d3 playoff formulas.

I understand - Obviously was stretching it
