UNI getting in was a bit of a surprise. I wonder if only having one MVFC team seeded played into that decision.

Unbelievable that UNI made it with their record! Us and them should be switched in the bracket since we best them there!!

I am so proud of the Coyotes. They slayed alot of decades long dragons and will now host a playoff game for the first time in about 35 years.

What a boring draw. A conference game, followed by another conference game. And I was about to blow a friggin gasket when UNI got in and our name wasn't called yet. Agreed. Our reward for navigating the toughest FCS conference is to just play some more conference games. Awesome. |

Also thank you Dave Herbster and the admin for putting a great bid to allow this team to host. Great day to be a Coyote.

MVFC with one seed, Big Sky with 3.
4 MVFC teams on one side of the bracket, 2 MVFC teams on the other, and stacking 3 MVFC teams in one quadrant.
It's obvious the NCAA doesn't want to spread the MVFC teams around the playoff board or we'd end up with the final 4 teams.

Like are these teams not used to flying to road games? All it does is set up for ridiculous blow outs in the later rounds. |

This committee just crapped all over the best FCS conference in the country. |

When they unveiled Sacred Heart playing Holy Cross they mentioned that the game was at noon because the stadium doesn't have lights. I'm guessing these schools can't afford to fly? |

I would have rather us travel to Holy Cross and run up the score than play another Valley team at home. |

Definitely would have been nice to play someone outside the Valley but here we are. Hopefully Camp will last long enough to get us back to Fargo!

We can pick the rankings apart until we are blue in the face. We have a game to win next week. We’re 0-0. This is tremendous for our program !

The All-MVFC pod is just ridiculous though. This is a national playoffs and instead of spreading teams around they stack conference foes against each other.
This isn't D2 that does have regions.

I ultimately agree with the sentiment that an all mvfc pod is bs. But, with the way siu finished the season and with our performance yesterday and home against isu-red, I really can’t get too upset. We take care of isu and we are likely not in this position.
