Where can you bus?

[Redbird Recon]

For teams that are in or on the bubble...

1. Where could you bus in the first round? (someone you haven't played)

2. Where could you bus in the second round? (any and all)

UND, USD, and SDSU is all that's within 400 miles for NDSU.

Nowhere...

Fordham 118 miles (played OOC)
St. Francis University 229 miles
Colgate 241 miles
Richmond 249 miles (2nd round only)
Duquesne University 291 miles
William & Mary 296 miles (2nd round only)
UNH 384 miles (Did not play in-conference, 1st round allowed)

And in fairy tale land, these matchups are "allowed"
Towson 99 miles (2nd round only)
James Madison 276 miles (2nd round only)


I'd guess Colgate or the NEC champ is most likely if we make it with a potential William & Mary rematch in Rd2. Why do a Fordham rematch when the are also in UNH's range, and why match us with our farthest opponent who is in-conference when Colgate or Fordham would be forced down to Virginia?

The only obscure possibility would be SFU/Duquesne vs. Dayton, which would be a disaster of a first round match-up.
