2019 Pool C

[FCGrizzliesGrad]

I miss the bracket challenge that we used to have on the website.

I know it's last minute but I've added a bracket challenge in the pickem board for those who want to still do one this year.

My bracket is busted.  Of more historical significance, the only "Purples" left on the board are UMHB and UWW.  There may be a new colored jersey to win the Stagg Bowl.

Interesting to note: The eight teams remaining are #2 through #9 in the D3football.com poll.

A very interesting fact indeed!  It certainly validates the poll!

Thought you would have posted the update by now, but Pool C was 2-2 this weekend, with both UWW and NCC left on opposite sides of the bracket and could not meet until the Stagg.

Someone may have the stat on this, but have two Pool C teams faced off in the Stagg Bowl?

Does this mean Whitewater and Central travel?

No, no, a thousand times no!  The pool from which you qualify does not have a thing to do with site selection.  North Central, Pool C, literally just got done hosting Delaware Valley, Pool A.

North Central should go to Muhlenberg.  St. John's should go to UWW.

Help me understand why.

The qualification pool is irrelevant.  Pool C teams have hosted six games in this tournament, all against Pool A teams (Wesley x2, UWW x2, North Central x2).  Redlands would have hosted a game, but they got island'd out of that home game that they actually earned. 

Generally, the team ranked higher in the final regional rankings is going to host.  It's really straightforward when the teams are from the same region (as SJU and UWW are).  When you get teams from different regions, it gets trickier, but you can still usually figure it out by looking at the same criteria used for selection. 

[retagent]

So a 1 loss Pool C team gets 3 home games, and a 1 loss Pool A team gets 1 home game? How do you know that UWW was ranked higher than SJU in the Final Regional Rankings? Have they been published?

Yes.

Again, labeling teams as Pool A or Pool C is superfluous and doesn't have any bearing on seeding or site selection.
