Charleston southern is a better program than any in the socon because they won an OOC game in the round of 16. For those of you who don't know, CSU won 1 playoff game in their history.
Upstate Bison really likes to move the goal posts.
To win a game in the round of 16 is to either be or beat a seed. That's an accomplishment. If you're in the east, you will likely play a conference opponent in that count. The only ones that won't are Big Sky teams.
Wofford's win against Elon is a better win than SDSU's against Dusquesne. But hey, because it was in the round of 16 and OOC, it must have been better than Woffords win against the citadel in 2016. Get outta here.
If you're looking at just the round a team advances to and not how they got there, you're endorsing the laziest thinking imaginable. Single elimination tournaments are great for finding out who the best team is, but they logically cannot tell you for certain who the second best team is, or third, etc.
The socon has been screwed by regionalization because we have had 3 playoff teams within 200 miles of each other and 2 of them good enough to be seeds.
