East Region Playoff Discussion

[rams1102]

what would have to happen for the Red Hawks to go!!! ??....ECAC's are fine but this team has some serious potential...they have no injuries McCoach is back which takes a lot of the preasure off of Jump...ahh I mean I know we didn't beat Cortland and TCNJ I know this...but were a damn good team anyone of the three TCNJ, Cortland Or MSU could def run the table in the Region thats how good the NJAC is this year... Rowan is on a down year and they were a few plays away from being undefeated..so that is 4 teams that were all ranked in the top 25 this year..very impressive!!!!!

Go Red Hawks!!!!!

Kick some serious arz Saturday and say a few prayers.

LET'S  GO  MIGHTY  RED  HAWKS  !!!!!!!!

Go Hartwick!

[Ralph Turner]

Maybe they can move 2 Texas teams in...

Just make sure they are from the same conference and play each other!

+1 

Sad, but true!

All the teams that could end up 8-2 should seriously start to root for UC if they want a shot at a Pool C.....

I doubt a 2 loss team from the East gets a Pool C though....

[Jonny Utah]

New regional rankings:

http://www.d3football.com/dailydose/2007/11/07/third-regional-rankings/

1. New Jersey 8-1 8-1
2. Curry 10-0 10-0
3. St. John Fisher 8-1 8-1
4. RPI 7-1 7-1
5. Hobart 7-2 7-2
6. Cortland State 6-2 7-2
7. Widener 6-2 7-2
8. Hartwick 7-2 7-2
9. Ithaca 7-2 7-2
10. Alfred 7-2 7-2

-Am I crazy in thinking that a win by Ithaca over the #6 team might jump them over the #7 or #8 teams?  Maybe the #5 or #4? 

-No Montclair?

-Is Ithaca going to need RPI to lose either way? (RPI and Roc wins, RPI has 1 loss either way?)

-Any possible chance of Curry dropping out if they lose this weekend?

Well I guess it's time to get some -K.

It appears to be an up-state love fest with the exception of Widner and Curry who are AQ's. 1 and out Curry ranked #2, give me a break. Montclair has as much right to be in the there as Alfred, Ithaca, Hartwick, Widner, Cortland and Hobart. Yea, I'm not happy, but what are you going to do. Suck it up and kick butt on Sat.

Doesn't really matter, since 7 and 8 have automatic bids with victories. You need to pass Pool C teams.

Pass Hobart? Possible, but not sure.

[union89]

Pat,
Utah brings up a good point.....can you see Curry getting a pool 'C' with one loss??

I can't see how with the NEFC past performances, but I could see a strong negotiator like Frank Rossi making a strong arguement for them....can you drop a #2 in the East team out of the playoffs with only one season ending loss?
