Playoff Opponent after win...
Posted: Fri Nov 17, 2006 9:07 am
Rather than thinking we lose, I'm thinking we win tomorrow. After we dispatch the griz, who do we play in the playoffs? Who is likely to be our first round opponent?

The griz are still going to get an auto if we beat them. And two auto's from the BSC mean no at-large for anyone else, I think.old wise one wrote:That is an interesting question. I think most associated with MSU are optomistic of having a home game, should we beat the Griz.
Below is who most of the pundants are picking for the field. If we beat the Griz, we would replace Montana as the auto, and Montana would replace PSU as an at large, thus knocking out PSU in my opinion.
1. *APP ST
2. *UMASS
3. *MONTANA
4. *YSU
*HAMPTON
*LEHIGH
*MCNEESE ST
*UT MARTIN
CCU
EIU
FURMAN
ILS
JMU
PSU
SIU
UNH
In this scenario, the bad thing about San Diego not making it, is McNeese would probably end up in Missoula. Therefore, the remaining possibilities for coming to Bozeman would be S. Illinois or maybe EIU. S. Illinois would provide a stern test for the Bobcats.
I am not totally sure about this but I believe if we win tomorrow the fiz will be an at large selection. The BSC only gets one auto.longhorn_22 wrote:The griz are still going to get an auto if we beat them.

Yeah...I think Longhorn is confusing "auto" with "seed." If we lose, there is talk that we may still be seeded, (although I actually doubt that we would be; I think JMU may take it from us, unless they lose also. We'd be in the mix, though, I suppose.) MSU would be the auto berth, though.Weltercat wrote:I am not totally sure about this but I believe if we win tomorrow the fiz will be an at large selection. The BSC only gets one auto.

I thought that if you win the conference, you get an auto bid. Just like a couple years ago, we both tied for the conference and both got auto bids.Grizlaw wrote:Yeah...I think Longhorn is confusing "auto" with "seed."

No, in 2002 and 2003 we got the autobid for conference champions because we won the tiebreakers. the Griz were at large.longhorn_22 wrote:I thought that if you win the conference, you get an auto bid.

Thanks. I kind of figured that after I thought about it a bit, but it makes sense now.vike_king wrote:No, in 2002 and 2003 we got the autobid for conference champions because we won the tiebreakers. the Griz were at large.longhorn_22 wrote:I thought that if you win the conference, you get an auto bid.
