I apologize for my ignorance, but where can you find the list of declared teams? Kind of glanced at the ECAC website and saw nada.

On Saxon Warriors! On to Victory!

QuoteThe list continues to grow...Cortland, Norwich and a handful of south teams added today.

Just out of curiosity, does anybody have access to last years' declared teams list?

I was initially very much against the new structure of these games, but as long as that list of declared teams keeps growing it looks like it was a great move for the ECAC.

That depends completely on your geographic perspective. Those who are south of the NYC metro area, like a lot of the ECAC members are, obviously disagree. Otherwise there would be more than four South region teams who've declared eligibility. Whether the ECAC cares that a large portion of the membership isn't participating in the new format remains to be seen.

I count 8 South Region teams?

Correct, my mistake, though practically only six teams have a realistic chance. FDU-Florham will likely finish 3-7.  Geneva is 2-6 and shouldn't even be listed unless they want to include teams who'd like to participate but didn't reach the .500 threshold.

Everyone else looks safe to reach at least .500. Bethany is on the border but isn't likely to lose to Grove City.

MAC and Centennial agree to a bowl series between the two conferences... see you later ECACs for at least this year.

Story coming to D3football site shortly, I am sure.

We seem to be writing a lot of 'pulling out of the ECAC' stories on our sites of late.

I know I have alluded to it, but I am serious when I say I think the ECAC will be disappearing soon from Division III... or least outside of the Northeast. You now have only two hockey conferences left - and they are probably going to bolt by season's end; you now have two conferences going their separate ways from football - which is bound to encourage other conferences to do the same; schools are no longer interested in paying the yearly dues OR participating in post-season events the ECAC won't help offset the costs for...

It all adds up to the ECAC disappearing as we know it and they can only blame themselves for focusing too much on Division I, assuming Division III would also stay pat, and that Division III didn't really care about being cared for.

Uggh. Why 1 vs 2? The better bowl games would be 1 vs 1 and 2 vs 2. Why just try and generate easier wins instead of making better games? That being said, I fully support this and would like to see the ODAC and USASAC do something similar. Jealous.

1 v 2 allows for an easy decision on hosts :)

Bleh. It's a two year contract. CC 1 hosts this year, CC 2 hosts next year. Done.

Is Brockport just late or not going to declare? I guess it's more likely than not given records that they won't make the cut.

Especially non-New England Division III. Really, the South ECAC teams have gotten the short end of the stick since at least the '90s.

Great idea -- in theory. You just can't expect schools to travel 5+ hrs all of a sudden without compensation. Would love to see all the ECAC teams involved,but this isn't a perfect world.

In retrospect, this has to have been a pretty inane decision. How many other schools will back out?
