Bolded games are the most interesting. Upset possibilities also.

I also liked that Lafayette/ Samford matchup as well, Two tough football teams. I saw Lafayette in the 2005 playoffs and they were tough. They also have very nice fans as well.

I saw Lafayette too. That was when Coach Lembo (now at Elon) was their coach. App barely won.

Good thing that you put the disclaimer in the beginning. Extremely smart move about the post season participation. xnodx

who's going to be your 5-12 upset? we all know one of those happens every year.

According to the bracket here probably the Tennessee State/UC Davis.

I love the WKU/Drake 5 - 12 match. I have it saved on my laptop. Classic. xbowx xbowx xbowx xbowx xbowx

Ummmm...Pete Lembo coached at Lehigh.

[BeauFoster]

Dayton as a 9 seed? Shouldn't they really be a 13 or 14? They've got the record, but not the body of work.

[Dane96]

Holy Cross as a 7...really. In fact, the PL with 3 teams ranked in the Top 28 (two 7 and one 6 seed) is ridonkulous.

How does the PFL have THAT many teams in the playoffs. And no offense to our bretheren, but WTF is Robert Morris doing in there.

This is not well thought out.

[Gamecocks99]

That is the best idea that I have seen in a long time !

Please send it to the NCAA !

I agree that there is a slim chance that EKU could upset the Flyers!

[dgreco]

Both S Dakota and N Dakota and SUU and no love at all for Bryant! =(

As long as we're imagining a hoops-style tourney, we might as well see what it would look like with the SWAC and the Ivy. They do participate in March Madness, after all . . .

I had Bryant in a bowl game in my other thread

I just went by the rankings to determine seeds.

Robert Morris is a just a team with a record better than some others.

This was just for fun. Its not like I am on the committee or anything.

Definitely need to include the SWAC, as ONLY the top two (Best of east/west) (and GRAMBLING/Southern) are excluded. PV A&M would get a sniff in the 14-16 range, as an example.
