I know that teams bid on opening round games but do all schools have to bid to host games or is that just for the opening round?

Yes, although later rounds they are awarded home field as long as they meet the minimum bid which is pretty low.

What happens in an unseeded vs unseeded matchup in the Quaters or Semis?

It goes back to the bids from what I understand.

Did Cal Poly lose money hosting the opening round considering all of the damage done to their field?

Yep Mocs is correct. Also if a seeded team fails to meet the minimum bid the unseeded team can host.

It goes back to bids. And you hope your school made bids for all rounds of the playoffs! Wasn't there a year that Georgia Southern went on the road for a semi-final game because their AD didn't bid on that round?

Yes they played at Wofford in the quarterfinals of the first season the field expanded to 20. I guess because they were one of the last teamd in, they didn't think they'd make it that far. They still brought quite a hoard of people to Wofford, though.

That has to be a Professionally-taken Glamour Shot of the GaSou fans in their Elite Diamond Tailgate Area.

I've seen GaSou's fan base and this photo is WAY more classy than 99% of them.
