Fair enough Hog. I certainly agree with what you said in your last post. I just found your first post just a little peculiar because after all you guys have beaten Tanney three straight which is more than all of his other losses combined in his last three plus seasons. As far as the potential matchup vs Dubuque what's your take on this game?

Wow, MWC gets two in... Tough draws but not impossible. Congratulations Scots and Blue Boys.

Wow, was not expecting that! Good luck to both!

Congratulations Midwest Conference, the whole reason Coe left in the first place was that two teams would never come out of the MWC. Guess Cornell made the right choice to come back.

If the stars align, Monmouth and Illinois College could play two (one another again), as this year's rematch at the national championship!

Oh where is Blu? Come back and I'll eat some crow!

Not here on the board, but I'd been telling people who asked me all week that IC wouldn't get in...glad I'm wrong!

Pat how did the brackets get so shuffled? I mean with the mixing of regions and all.

Really looking forward to the Monmouth vs. IWU game. IWU has a very big and fast defense which should challenge Tanney. On the other side of the ball, IWU has been extremely one dimensional on offense and has looked awful during stretches of the year. I could be wrong, but I see Monmouth as having a great chance in this one.

Woodsy76 · November 13, 2011, 07:11:53 PM

I don't understand how Monmouth doesn't get this game at home since they received their automatic qualifier spot for the MWC and IWU got an at large bid. Any ideas?

Pool A vs. Pool C has no impact on seeding. Check out the SOS of the two teams for your answer.

This is an opportunity for the MWC to make a statement.

Notice the NCAA video placement of the Monmouth University (NJ) Hawks logo across the screen when they mentioned our Fighting Scots? Perhaps our SID can gear up a video and correct the NCAA of their errs, Come on NCAA, get it right.
