I like the format and presentation, Johhny U. +1!
He used the "right align" feature on the entire post.

Sorry about the mistake. I think this is right.

On this page conference is incorrect as NEAC should be IND
Also Central Oklahoma opponent is DII and not in region opponent

Johnny U -
Nice information! Thanks for the work on this.
How many teams will receive a Pool B bid for 2011? Does SOS come into play in determining bids? Does it matter what region they are from, or do the best teams earn the bids and then receive their assigned "region" for playoffs?

Welcome aboard El Hombre! You da man!

We don't have the Handbook yet, but the number of Pool B bids will be published in the Handbook.

SOS is one factor in determining the bids.

When the Handbook is published, we will discuss the bids more thoroughly.

Yes, the "best" teams receive the bids (with an occasional debate about the last Pool B bid).

The brackets are then set up by geographical consideration.

JohnnyU · February 22, 2011, 05:12:58 PM

There will be 2 OR 3 Pool B bids.

340 teams Pool A eligible teams and 38 Pool A conferences. Meaning 1 out of every 8.94737 Pool A eligible teams gets a Pool A bid.

27 Pool B eligible teams. If 1 out of every 8.94737 Pool B eligible teams gets a Pool B bid then 3.01765 teams will receive Pool B bids. So depending if my count is right, there will be 2 or 3 bids.

Thanks for the correction.

Ralph Turner · February 22, 2011, 05:20:28 PM

Johnny U,

The access ratio is calculated by dividing the number of Pool A conferences in the sum of the participating members of those Pool A Conferences.

The 2010 Handbook did not specifically give the number of teams in Pool A conferences.

Ralph Turner · February 22, 2011, 05:34:12 PM

My first guess at Pool B will be 25 27 schools, as 2 3 Pool B bids ~~as, Johnny U suggests~~.

(I don't think that the access ratio will be 9 of above.)

Central Region: (3)
Univ. of Chicago(IND)

Mideast: (2)

Man, I love it when a really talented and inquisitive fan can double-check me and find changes, e.g., the new full members for 2011, that I missed. It means that we are building a corps of strong knowledgeable D3fans who enjoy baseball! Thanks Johnny U, +1!

JohnnyU · February 22, 2011, 05:45:06 PM

Are the following teams ineligible or no longer in D3 or something else:

North Central (Minn.)
Lancaster Bible
St. Joseph's (Bklyn.)

El Hombre · February 22, 2011, 06:07:02 PM

Johnny U / Ralph -
Thank you for all of the information!
I was curious about the number of Pool B teams. The earlier posts listing updated records for 2011 only listed 9 teams. Are these the only teams that have started play?

Ralph Turner · February 22, 2011, 07:03:01 PM

Oh, BTW, the Handbook usually has not had a good proofreading when the first edition comes out.

I am certain that it will get a good review this spring!

JohnnyU · February 28, 2011, 06:48:19 PM

Thru 2/27. All Pool B teams that have played an in-region game. Already, a lot of teams looked like they will be contenders. Chapman had a great week. As always, post if anything is wrong.
