I think the only scenario where we aren’t confident about a top 4 seed is if USD beats NDSU and Montana beats MSU. That would leave NDSU, SDSU, USD, UCD, and MSU all with 1 FCS loss, mostly to each other. I’m hoping in that scenario Portland State’s whooping cough (which meant one less win for USD) makes USD the #5 seed.

I don’t love that the Big Sky’s representative on the committee (until 2028) is Sac State’s AD.

The one year we would benefit by beating Montana but the Grizz AD isn't there anymore.

So if we level slac, does Orr support us or screw us? I really don’t know anything about him.

I think the feeling is support. all the California schools get screwed by the Montana-centric BSC leadership so the thought is it will be better.

If we win and NDSU, I can’t imagine us NOT being 4. USD’s resume isn’t that good.
