Re: BSC team at CAS?

Man, I made up a huge write up about how the playoff bracket was going to pan out last week and now UNI loses, which completely screws that prediction up!... but hey, I'll trade a prediction made in vain for a home playoff game any day of the week !!!

Now with UNI out of the picture (though you never know) and possibly 3 Big Sky teams in the mix, our fortunes has shifted from being shipped to Louisiana to that of very likely hosting a home playoff game. It's not over till the fat lady sings...errr... selection board decides the playoff bracket, but if I were a gambing man, I'd put a cool $100 on the Jacks playing their first round game at the CAS!!!!

I'll take that $100 plz..

Re: BSC team at CAS?

You guys are getting my hopes up, dang it. I would love one more home game. I can't see us being sent to Richmond. That's scenario would really annoy me, to be honest. I can see us being sent to Montana. I honestly couldn't gripe about that too much. I see on Any Given Saturday that one Montana fan (it appears) wouldn't be thrilled with that.

Re: BSC team at CAS?

This weekend may work well to zip up for a playoff game. Other than not being able to attend, would rather not have us going to Montana or out east. I don't see us pulling a W out of that this year.

Re: BSC team at CAS?

Some questimation that I saw had SDSU going to Richmond. Works for me cause I'll be in LadySmith, Virginia this coming weekend. 40 miles north of Richmond.

I'm with the good doctor on this one.

LR Forecast for Saturday in Brookings: 43 and sunny.
Perfect playoff weather.

Re: BSC team at CAS?

So here is the play-off picture out west.

In
SDSU
Montana
McNese
SFA
SIU

Bubble (2 of 3 likely get in)
UNI
Eastern Washington
Weber State

So making the assumption that 3 BSC teams make it, and SIU is paired with Eastern Illinois.

The BSC has to be matched with non-BSC opponents.

SFA @ Montana
WSU @ McNese
EWU @ SDSU
EIU @ SIU

If UNI somehow sneaks in that changes everything.

EIU @ SIU
SDSU @ Montana
SFA @ UNI
Weber/EWU @ McNese

It would better for the MVFC for UNI to get in, but likely better for SDSU if they don't.

Re: BSC team at CAS?

I'm going to assume SDSU will be sent to Montana so that, for once, I have a chance of being pleasantly surprised by what the NCAA does (although, in all fairness, the soccer seeding last fall was quite generous------unless you were Colorado).

Re: BSC team at CAS?

Ok so I've done some more edumacating myself, and have to agree with you md. With the three BSC teams likely to be in, and UNI losing, it does seem more likely that they send Stephen F. Austin to Montana, and Weber or E. Washington to us. I highly doubt that either of those teams would outbid us, since I would hope that we put in a pretty darn sizeable bid based off the excitement of the first time in the playoffs. This is why your the doc, once again!

Re: BSC team at CAS?

Ok how does this work? I've got several people that want tickets if they get a home game. Do I get my two season ticket seats and then 8 others elsewhere?

Here is the ticket info. I will order my season tickets and a bunch more as soon as I can get a hold of someone Monday.


IF a Home Game - Season ticket holders will have the first opportunity to purchase the seats they had during the regular season at Coughlin-Alumni Stadium. General public will be able to purchase tickets through the Jackrabbit Ticket Office. Tickets will go on sale Monday at 1:00 pm.

Tickets for a home playoff game will be available for purchase online at GOJACKS.com, over the phone at 1.866.GOJACKS or at the Jackrabbit Ticket Office.

IF an Away Game - Season ticket holders and the general public will be able to purchase tickets through the Jackrabbit Ticket Office starting on Monday at 1:00 pm.

Tickets for a road playoff game will be available for purchase over the phone at 1.866.GOJACKS or at the Jackrabbit Ticket Office.

Priority Parking Passes and Tailgating

Priority parking passes and season tailgating passes will be valid for all playoff games held at Coughlin-Alumni Stadium.

Subsequent Rounds

Should the Jacks qualify for the 16 team playoff field and advance to the second round, the location of a Quarterfinal game would be determined no later than Sunday, November 29. Ticket protocol for this contest would be similar to that listed above.

We thank you for your continued support of Jackrabbit Athletics and look forward to seeing you throughout this historic postseason run by your Jackrabbit Football team.

GO BIG. GO BLUE. GO JACKS

Re: BSC team at CAS?

The way I understand it and it is confusing that it is a number of things, but I think SDSU's chances of hosting improved quite a bit..... Though the bid/facilities scares me a bit, I just don't know how they could make Montana play an 8-3 team, and I don't see how it makes sense to send SDSU anywhere else....

Re: BSC team at CAS?

I think we are going to host Eastern Washington at CAS. Why? I can't explain why except to say we have a resume that puts us at the top of the list of at-large bids in a a conference where the auto-bid is the best team in the nation. In addition, I am confident that our admin submitted one heck of a bid to host. SO, I think we host either EWU or Weber. I don't see them sending us to Montana and I don't see them sending EWU or Weber any further east than SD. Again, see you in Brookings, I'll be buying as many tickets as they will let me.

Ok how does this work? I've got several people that want tickets if they get a home game. Do I get my two season ticket seats and then 8 others elsewhere?
