East Region Fan Poll

[wesleydad]

yes, except that it will be linfield or cal luth coming east, wesley is apparently the 2 seed in their bracket.

[gordonmann]

Are you sure about that? We aren't sure who the top seeds are in some brackets.  We're not sure if Del Val and Mount are top seeds or UST and Wabash.

Typically the way the NCAA makes brackets, the 1 seeds are in the corners right?


Edit:  Actually that appears incorrect.

However, I can't imagine that Norwich was NOT an 8 seed and Mt. Union was not a 1 seed.

Could also be a flight west. Travel in D3 isn't always about seeding. Financial guarantees are also in the mix. Should be a tough call for the NCAA if it really becomes Wesley/Linfield. Home while the visitor travels three time zones is big advantage.

yeh...was wondering why MUC was in the bottom portion of the online bracket...crazy ish, how dont we know who the #1's are?

82 -- in 2009 they refused to give us any seedings at all, even claiming, somehow, that seedings had NEVER EXISTED.

Ever since then, I won't be surprised at seedings. I did request them.

BTW, I think LD11 is correct that the top seeds tend to be the host teams in the corners.

None of this makes sense. The only thing that doed is that the brackets have UWW and MU in the finals. To me the brackets are pure BS and POLITICS.

so is MUC a #1 under that theory?

WTF?  This is probably one of the most fair brackets in years.

Quick question the St. John Fisher guys...

Is the picture that I keep having to view on the front page a recent pic, or one from 1984?

Recent, they changed their helmets back to the white ones...

But this is the kid on the front page in case you were wondering about the mullet coming out of the back of the helmet...

LD is right.  The NCAA has finally shown some balls.

Although I can't say I'm not suprised, but I'm not shocked that SJF is in.  I've always had this feeling in my gut that the NCAA uses common sense when making selections like this.  The E8 helps out two teams looking for a league (Salisbury and Frostburg) and one of its original members (SJF) gets left out because of the move.  To me, this is the NCAA telling leagues that add good teams that they might get thrown a bone come playoff time.

Is the NCAA telling Hobart to shape up and add some teams to their schedule?

Yeah I was only kidding.  It's a pose reminiscent of Vince Vaughn in Rudy after he throws the Touchdown.

I actually just said that in a conversation with PBR on Facebook.  I think Hobart probably got the worst seeding in the entire bracket and I think it says something.

The end result is MTU plays UWW. What else is new?
