Two OVC teams in the semis. Should help with the talk on the number of OVC teams in the field.

NDSU - too strong, despite drama
UNH - Longest playoff streak gives experience advantage.
Towson - 4th and 29 redux.
EWU - red unis on red turf camo pays off.

Not too many people picking UNH. I think we've got a good chance at pulling off the upset.

Call me crazy, but I think all 4 away teams give the home teams a bit of a scare with at least two of them pulling them off.

Did you paste that from the Federal gov ACA web site?

[Professor Chaos]

4-4 for me last week, 11-5 for the playoffs.

Coastal Carolina @ North Dakota St - How much of a distraction will the Bohl situation be? I don't think much with this veteran laden Bison squad and they pull away in the 2nd half.

New Hampshire @ Southeastern Louisiana - I think the Lions faced a tougher team last Saturday and still won. We'll get a good look at relative strength between the CAA and SLC in this matchup.

Towson @ Eastern Illinois - Going to stick with my upset pick from the beginning of the playoffs although I'm not feeling too confident about it. Towson's defense is really going to need to step up.

Jacksonville St @ Eastern Washington - I've picked against the Gamecocks all playoffs so why stop now but I think EWU is by far the best team JSU has seen thus far in the postseason and will end their run.

[mamberso]

NDSU 31-20
UNH 37-34
EIU 55-35
EWU 31-27

[TU Tiger Town]

CCU @ NDSU - CCU can't handle the moderate temp inside the Fargo Dome despite uncharacteristically sloppy play from NDSU.
UNH @ SELA - UNH continues their late season surge with another upset.
Towson @ EIU - Towson run game controls the time of possession keeping EIU offensive off the field in a close game.
JSU @ EWU - EWU passing O too much for JSU to handle after cross continental trip.

[UNH Fanboi]

Vegas lines:

EIU -15.5
NDSU -13.5 (opened at -21.5)
EWU -8
SELA -7.5

[UNHFootballAlum]

Wow! EIU at 15.5 over Towson...Take the underdog in this game

[Reign of Terrier]

NDSU proves too strong for Coastal
SELA outscores UNH
EIU continues to roll past a good Towson (it's just EIU's year IMO and Towson's secondary is suspect)
Jacksonville State continues to raise eyebrows with a road victory against EWU (this game could go either way)

You heard it here first.


Didn't the NCAA say no to blending the uniform color to match the turf, or was that only for Boise State??? Boise can't wear all blue on blue turf.

[tomq04]

I'll take the top 4 seeds, appear to be head and shoulders above competition.

Hoping for a EWU/SELA national champ, my head says EIU/NDSU

[UNHFootballAlum]

The Boise State issue was a conference decision and not an NCAA decision

[dudeitsaid]

That, and it looks a lot more camouflaged from above. The players are seeing red against the horizon. It doesn't make a huge difference to the players. If it did, it would be as big a disadvantage for EWU trying to find their receivers as the blended into the turf.

Seems it would be just as hard for the QB to find his receivers?

Can a green team wear all green?

[clawman]

CCU @ NDSU - with the self indulgent goal of beating the Bizon in Frisco
UNH @ SELA - home team wins
Towson @ EIU - Can't stop the high powered offense
JSU @ EWU - Future Nat'l champs

[Big_Fan]

Not many school colors match the color of grass perfectly. It would be much easier to match the color of the field to the school color to where the difference is nonexistent.

Coach Clark said we may wear our red pants. That will look interesting...

If so, that means the top four seeds will be in the final four. I agree the top four seeds are the favorites, but I could see any of them losing (NDSU only because maybe there will be some distraction from the Bohl situation, though I doubt it.) I only picked Towsen to upset this weekend.
