I will say it....the only reason that NAU is in over EWU is that NAU thumped mighty Illinois State. If EWU would have beat NDSU they would have been in!

I really don’t see Weber beating Western Illinois.
I wouldn't expect anything different. I would guess you have every MVC team winning unless they are facing another MVC team in you little bracket prediction thing.
Weber State did not beat a single playoff team this year. Western Illinois crushed NAU and FBS Coastal Carolina. Better quality wins and played a much tougher schedule.
Big Fluffy has been very underwhelming in playoffs over the last 6 years outside of EWU. MVFC had their 3rd place team make the national championship game last year. It is unintentional bias....purely result driven.

Montana and Eastern are usually the only ones who get home games in the playoffs. That helps.
Weber is 2-3 in playoff opening round games and 2-5 overall. All on the road. Weber is hosting their first ever playoff game this weekend.

It's simple really. They lost to 4 of the best teams in the country who are all playoff teams. They played a hard schedule, won 7 games, and had some very nice wins. They should be in. Period. As a conference, the MVFC has proven themselves and have had every team represent themselves well in the playoffs. We can not not say that about the Big Sky.
In this decade (2010 on) here is a list of the non conference record in the playoffs from MVFC teams.
NDSU 14-2
SDSU 4-2
UNI 4-2
WIU 2-1
ISUr 3-3
ISUb 1-1
Overall record MVFC is 32-12. Not a single MVCFC who made playoffs have a record under .500 against non conference teams.
14 teams have played in the national championship game this decade. 7 of those teams have been from the MVFC and three different teams have represented the MVFC in the championship game. 5 national championships from the Valley. Even the CAA in their heydey didn't have a run like this.
That was an impressive and very informative post.41GrizFan said:grizfan95 said:Or how South Dakota loses their last 3 (and 4 of last 5) and gets in.
