The 5th seed only matters to teams that don't draw well. It also puts you in the top half of the bracket with the #1 seed. Thus, the 5 seed gives little advantage to teams like ASU or GSU. I do...

I agree. I like hearing different perspectives and their thought process though. For those who didn't want to watch the video, here are their at-large predictions (they did not provide pairings):

As always, it has been an interesting last day of the season. I thought UNH would be a lock at the beginning of the day but believe they are out now.
My field has Wofford as the 19th team in the...
Please count me in...
Since ASU has completed its regular season, ASU fans can look ahead to the playoffs. Below is my projection based on this week’s standings. Much will likely change next week:
Colgate at E....
My projected bracket also had ISU in and EKU out. However, you put yourself at the mercy of the Committee if you are battling for the 20th spot as we have seen many times before. ISU needed to take...
Both CSJ bracket projections (Burton and Coulson) look good. My bracket projection is in the "Brackets?" thread and is closer to Burton's. Looking forward to the official release soon.
I don't see many bracket predictions after Saturday's games. Here's my guess:
First round:
Norfolk St at Old Dominion
Stony Brook at James Madison
TN Tech at C. Arkansas
Albany at Illinois St...
I agree with the above statement. Illinois State is clearly in with a win this Saturday. With a loss, ISUr would be the only team in contention that has 4 FCS losses - and one of them being the OVC...
I believe ISUr needs to win against UNI or will need help to get in the field. IMO, they have the worst resume of any of the primary bubble teams listed by SumItUp. ISUr would be the only team with...
I think UCA will be in the playoff field. The Playoff Selection Committee would basically have to take a 5th team from the MVC or CAA over the 2nd team from the Southland. I think the SL's second...
Much will change in the next two weeks. For what it's worth, here is my prediction for now:
Albany at C. Arkansas winner at #1 ND State
Georgia Southern at Montana
Norfolk St at Old Dominion...
Thanks TT for your weekly bracket projections. I enjoy reviewing your brackets and will add mine when a little deeper in the season.
On the other hand, someone needs to give TSN some pointers. ...
Don't think it matters which side of the stadium. There will be plenty of empty seats! It will be interesting to see Frisco's local support for the event.
By the way, congrats to Eastern...
Cobb did mess up. However, it is ultimately Baker's responsibility to submit bids for his school. Baker and GSU need to look in the mirror as they are primarily responsible. GSU has regularly...
The roads were rough today. US 321 towards TN was awful (very icy). In fact, there was a bad accident for someone heading home from the game just in front of me. Boone may get a lot of snow but...
That's a fair assessment. Saturday's W&M-GSU game should be a low-scoring game. Both teams will get their yards but neither defense gives up many points.
Most Directv customers are out of luck with ESPN3.com. However, all ESPN3 games are also on ESPN GamePlan which Directv carries for an extra charge. GamePlan can be purchased for the season or for...
This year, it's 5 games on ESPN channels and 6 games on ESPN GamePlan. One less ESPN network game but 2 more GamePlan contests. Not too bad overall - especially if the ncaa.com broadcasts are...
I agree that it is all about politics and $$$. Just like most everything else in life. IMO though, only 18 teams had playoff resumes. SC State and ND State did not but still made the expanded...
The NCAA bracket posted on the College Sporting News site says the following:
All four first round games will be broadcast on www.NCAA.com.
One QF will be 12/10 on ESPN2 HD/ESPN3.com; one QF...
The TSN columnist has struggled with his picks all season. I would expect better from TSN due to its otherwise strong coverage of FCS.
As others have noted, there is no way that (1) Delaware will...
Decisions by the Playoff Selection Committee regarding the last 2 teams in the field and the top 5 seeds will be interesting.
I believe there are 18 “locks” for the field. I think there are 5...
Still think Jax St is in. However, SEMO is the auto bid if TTU holds on. Talk about crash and burn for JSU lately...
In prior playoffs, there have been many rematches in the first round of teams which squared off in the regular season. It's all about geography. With that said, I think the Playoff Selection...
