Let's take a look at the teams that will most likely be in the semis come next week.

1. App- 5th in the nation in total offense
2. UD- 3rd in the nation in total offense
3. SIU- 9th in the nation in total offense

Wofford is 11th and Richmond is 24th.

Now let's take a look at some of the teams that got bounced in the first round

1. Montana- 23rd in the nation in total offense.( 2nd in the nation in scoring defense)
2. McNeese- 13th in the nation in total offense(14 in the nation in scoring D)

Of note these stats do reflect the playoff games.

The teams that are still in the playoffs and competing for a championship can score and move the ball. Teams that have relied on stout D and consistent O are sitting at home watching all this exciting offense.

Also of note, UMass which will most likely be eliminated today(if the lead holds) is 43rd in total offense and 13th in scoring defense.

It's time teams understand you need points to win,(looks over at Bobby Hauck and the UM coaching staff)
