Win the Natty. What the hell.

I'll give Hack City credit for doing such a good job of whining without really whining on their Bracket reaction show. Those are two Rhodys with deep ties to the URI team and family, so for them to not go ballistic at URI finishing No. 9 in the seeding was amazing.

Everybody outside of the Big Sky and maybe the UAC don't know or think Davis' resume is worthy of the No. 8 seed. Who cares. Let them play their Round 1 game - we'll prepare either way and strap it up in two weeks. Play it all out on the field.

HOW DO YOU GET FANS TO THE GAME!!!??? It helps to not be playing Thanksgiving weekend, that's for sure - but given the turnout last year vs. Illinois State, something has to be done.

Offensively, if we're talking numbers I mean it's between Atkinson and Pinnick --- both are Top 8 teams and in the playoff BYE...with Pinnick being out for the NoCo game, I guess you give it to the passing monster at Mercer in Atkinson, but Pinnick has also navigated a Big Sky schedule rather than a Southern schedule, so for me, that holds more weight, and he has 312 yds rushing with rushing TDs on his resume as well -- but whatever they decide looks like it's a deserving winner. Man, Mercer's schedule is pretty weak though.

Absolutely

There was a time where Portland State recruited like crazy, Tim Walsh's teams had a ton of talent from '93 to '06...there was a time where Portland State guys were playing in the NFL. That's all gone now, they canceled their football program once before - and when they did it they had way less reason to do it then than they do now, but thankfully they're giving that Portland area some college football that isn't in Eugene or Corvallis. Wish it was a better situation for them.

Maybe Marion told him to STFU.

At this point, Portland State is a place for the tinkerers, dreamers and mad scientists. They aren't the program they once were - there coach has to be a blind optimist... and they have the worst home stadium in FCS or at least, the Big Sky...the feel of that place in Hillsboro is high school at best - stands on one side, not even downtown...felt so different when they played on Morrison Street.

They're having a meltdown because their new fearless leader couldn't bring in a QB that could complete a forward pass.

Marion 101...dice roller.

All depends on where we get ranked. Would love to see a matchup with an Ivy, but we'll see.

9 am tomorrow PT - let the selections begin - let the brackets reveal themselves.

Only 4 punts today --- felt like Sac went for it on 4th so many times because of their field position.

I'll talk about from the standpoint that the Eastern program has been going downhill ever since their Natty appearance that season...and they just lost to Cal Poly today in SLO. Poly lit them up.

Yup.

Former Aggie #23 Kavir Bains-Marquez had a nice game today in their upset of Georgia Tech:

Great season for Idaho State, Cody and Dan are doing a great job there.
