This is roughly what Pep and I informally agreed upon when we ran into each other at the Dollar General last night.  We figured that Alfred would fall below Del Valley and Kean in this week's regional rankings and that Montclair would leap the Saxons if they beat Kean.  Alfred could be really helped if Fisher moves into the rankings and Springfield doesn't fall out, but could also drop considerably if both teams go unranked.

I wonder what the bracket would look like if Alfred collapses and Fisher gets the AQ?  Do they to MUC right out of the gate?

I would think they would get MUC right out of the gate. If you told me MUC and SJF would play twice this season I would at least thought it would be in the East Finals.

We've heard that before...

While MUC is still very good, this isn't the offense juggernaught the East Region has seen the last couple years with Kmic at TB.  If there was ever a year the traditional east teams would be competitive and/or beat Mount, this would be it.   

If the east is a balanced and average as you guys make it out to be, you've missing a great opportunity to slay the King.

Yeah...judging by the fact that only one game was pretty much within 3 TD's...I am sure that MUC is worried.

I'm not saying the Raiders aren't the favorite in the East by a large margin this year, just that this is as vulnerable as they've been in a while.  If the '06 Fisher team was facing this MUC team the outcome might have been different as a 26-14 point loss. 

I very well could be wrong, but I don't think there is any serious competition to Mount in the East this year.

Ummm...you could probably replace that comment with "I don't think there is any serious competition to Mount in the East this year."

Some team will step up... maybe U Dub Dub.

They are probably the only team that could make a dent...

Linfield could be the sleeper pick at this point

[AUKaz00]

Here is K-Mack's first stab at where the East teams will land (from the Pool C board):

Okay, here's a hastily assembled suggestion:

1 MUC
8 Union

4 Thomas More
5 Alfred

3 Case Western Reserve
6 MSJ

2 Wittenberg
7 Trine
------------
1 Wesley
7 LV/Albright

3 H-SC
8 NCWC/Averett

4 Kean
5 Curry

2 Del Val
6 Johns Hopkins

[theoriginalupstate]

1) MUC
2) DVC
3) NJAC Rep (Kean/Montclair)
4) Alfred
5) Curry
6) Pool C import
7) LL Rep
8) MAC runner up (pool C)

Curry still has to play the NEFC championship game, but if you want to crown'em then crown their ass!

Edited for accuracy!

If SJF gets the AQ (and it's a long shot at best) I agree that they would and should get MUC right out of the gate...

Almost all Mount folks, myself included, feel that Mount will be hard pressed to keep up with Whitewater this season.  UWW is absolutely loaded with 21 of 22 starters back from last year's Stagg.    Anything short of national championship should be considered a major upset for UWW this season.

I don't buy it...you can't plead underdog when you are 146-5 over the past 10+ seasons...
