--- Quote from: BushwoodCC on November 19, 2022, 04:44:50 PM ---To be honest, our odds entering today at 7-4 didn't look great, but some things are happening in our favor...
1. Villanova blocked a punt with under 2 minutes left and shocked Delaware 29-26. Delaware would have had 8 wins had they won, they are stuck at 7.
2. Montana is getting absolutely slaughtered against their arch rival Montana State right now. The Bobcats are up 48-14 in the 4th quarter. Remember the year YSU beat Pitt and started 4-0, then proceeded to lose 4 in a row, before finishing with 3 wins and ending the campaign with 7 wins... did we make it in? No. Well Montana started 5-0 and is on the verge of ending this season going 2-4 down the stretch.
3. Western Carolina just beat a 7 win Chattanooga after scoring a TD on 4th and goal at the 1 with under a minute left. Chattanooga lost 3 of their 4 final four games.
4. YSU did with 5 of their last 6 games to get to this point... call them weak or not.. but this is the VALLEY.

Excellent points. Unfortunately, this is the year that the jealous athletic directors on the committee from weak conferences take their revenge against the MVFC.

Are you suggesting that politics may come into play?

Yes, I agree!

Northwestern is terrible but they sure didn't look bad to me against Ohio State!

It comes down to our conmish and how many friends we have on the committee. They have never been consistent in how they pick and I think it depends on the regions or something geographically. Like I said we seem to always get the screws, 🙏

Must have missed it, what time would be the announcement of the field?
