UNH, Furman and Richmond win. UMass (7) upset by Hofstra. Coastal Carolina (9) loses. Lehigh (12) loses to Lafayette. East. Ill. beats Jacksonville. Nichols St. beat McNeese. Texas St. leading SHS by 3 in middle of third quarter. So. Ill. leads NDS 9-0 late in the third.

Hope NAU and/or ISU beat Northern Iowa or Cal Poly. If that happens, and NAU is losing by 21 pts in the 3rd, then we could be in. the problem is two weak teams, Colgate and Nicholls State, are auto in and ranked well behind the Cats. Our power ratings could put us in the top 16 but with 4 losses the chances are slim. If Cal Poly gets beat by Idaho State I say we are in. Oh, North Dakota State could have helped us but they lost 9-0. The big question mark is Grambling and Brown. Are they in? I do not know if the Ivy league even goes to the playoffs.

Nope. Grambling plays Southern next week, so they won't go to the playoffs, and Ivy League teams don't play in the playoffs.

Norhern Iowa is the autobid for the Gateway. They are in the playoffs already.

Looks like with with a Cal Poly win it's highly unlikely the cats make it.
