Interesting that the MVFC got 3 teams into the playoffs and the BSC got two. UNI, NDSU, and W. Ill get in and all play first round games. UNI does not get a bye as the MVFC champion. NDSU gets to host the round 1 game and W. Ill has to go to Coastal Carolina even though W. Ill beat NDSU in Fargo and finishes with the same record.
Speaks to the need for USD to make sure there are enough seats put into the Dome renovation - hosting a game would be great for the University. Schools bid on home playoff games and attendance is a meaningful factor.

Yeah, it's definitely about attendance when hosting, that's for sure. I am interested to see how far Western Illinois and NDSU can go. I think UNI can make a bit of a run, but they were bad, but I get they knew they were hosting a first-round game anyway and Reenie got hurt.
NDSU almost didn't make it in after laying an egg yesterday. That offense is SO hit or miss with them.

Couldn't watch the game as don't have access to ESPN3, but Bison got beat in overtime by Eastern Washington. From other boards sounds like the Bison got hosed. Had the ball at the 1 yd line and down by contact, but the ruling on the field and upheld on review was a fumble.
PS - really sucks that all the FCS quarterfinals aren't on the Deuce.

i watched the game on justintv. i think it was also on channelsurfing.net. at one point while the announcers were watching the replay, they said something about that the QB was bobbling the ball. i never really saw a good replay to see if he was. im thinking cause if was called a fumble there wasnt enough evidence to change the call. i only saw it on my computer screen and its kind of blurry so i cant make a judgement on it. and bison fans always think they get screwed when they lose so who knows.

I bet Bisonville is in meltdown mode after this one. It sucks to go out that way but I think NDSU fans can be proud that there team is once again a contender.

Congrats to EWU on a great comeback 20 - 19 win in the national championship game. They were down 19 -0 to Delaware in the 2nd half and the game at that time wasn't as close as the score.
Might have to consider some colored turf for the dome

You know, I'm peaved at myself for writing this game off and watching the Cotton Bowl instead because I thought this game was getting out of hand and UD was going to run away with it. Shame on me for missing an exciting comeback.
The BSC looks pretty good right now.
