  • First Round Game Discussion

    Thought I'd start a new thread to discuss this Saturday's games and for people to post updates.

    Lots of interesting matchups, but the ones I'll be paying the closest attention to are:

    UND @ Nicholls

    Kennesaw @ Wofford

    Nova @ SE Louisiana

    All appear to be evenly matched games on paper, with the possible exception of Wofford-KSU. I hope the Owls get blown out in that one to decrease the chance of them stealing a bubble slot in future years. I find KSU to be very annoying and would like to see their season effectively over by halftime on Saturday.

    For entertainment's sake:

    Monmouth -7 vs. HC (I see Monmouth winning fairly easily)

    Albany -6.5 vs. CCSU

    Furman -1 at Austin Peay

    Wofford -6.5 vs. Kennesaw State (I think Wofford wins easy)

    Illinois State -2.5 at SE Missouri State (seems off, ISUr looked BAD against YSU)

    Northern Iowa -12 vs. San Diego

    Nicholls State Pick ‘Em vs. North Dakota

    Villanova -1 at SE Louisiana

      Would like us to play usd just so we can play a different team and not play a conference mate in the playoffs again.

        Bought my tickets to the playoff game. Might be a little chilly but I hope there is a good crowd there to root the Jackrabbits on.

          Guess I'd love to see Monmouth win and upset JMU in hopes Jacks could get another home playoff game.

            The most memorable crowds I've been a part of. Can't wait for 12/7!

              I'd like to see the Jacks play San Diego, too. It would be a fresh, new opponent. And the Jacks definitely would have home-weather advantage! Hopefully, Pierre, C.J. and some of the other banged-up players will be back.

                Has anyone read about the Nicholls locker room situation. What a sh*t show. I hope UND goes down their and kicks their butt. Can't wait to have UND in our conference.

                  I was curious. Tents and portable bathroom facilities. Pretty rinky-dink.

                    I'd be all over Wofford and Monmouth with those lines. Id also be pretty tempted to take SELA over Nova. I'm really not impressed with the CAA this year.

                      Zenner abusing EIU for almost 300 yards. That crowd was great. I would say my favorite games have been the late season or playoff games over the last decade. Just wish I could make more of them now. We go to the hospital to induce for baby #4 and probably wont get out of hospital till the 7th. So hopefully we can make it home in time and I home midco or someone will have it on TV.

                        that seems like a failure on the NCAA for allowing a school with that set up to host agame. cant say much for the other bids that came in then?

                          That's my view on the whole locker room squabble. UND should have bid more and they wouldn't have to travel nor deal with a tent for a locker room. Pretty easy solution.

                            UND has bigger things to worry about than locker rooms, they are a terrible team on the road.....

                              That was such a fun game to be at! Mr Garoppolo and company had no desire to play that game. What an absolute pounding sdsu gave them that day!
