I in no way believe that the NCAA will omit an undefeated, or even 1 loss CIAA Champion from the 2021 NCAA Division 2 Playoffs. Just not going to happen!
Your SR2 list should include LRU and they should be in front of Mars Hill. Obviously Bowie is not a two seed. If LR wins out they should make the playoffs and be a four or five seed.
You keep coming for my Bulldogs and your team isn't even included on the list. What part of 7-0, undefeated in DII don't you understand. We are New Haven's only loss and we beat a solid Saginaw, so you can't criticize our OOC schedule. In what national poll does record not matter, lol? I can't speak on the rest of the SRII but I can speak on the CIAA. Bowie will win out and win the CIAA Championship which will put them at 10-0 (DII) and certainly earn them a home game the first round of playoffs. I hope we end up facing L-R 1st round(If you make playoffs), so they can help change your perception of the CIAA.
I agree Bowie is deserving a po spot. The last po they played CN and lost at home. We beat CN by double digits twice that year. If we have to travel for a po game that would definitely be better than going to West Fla. or Valdosta etc.
There is still a lot of football to be played before the playoff selections are made and their are so many scenarios that could play out, especially in a season where top ten teams lose almost every week. Will be interesting to see today's regional rankings but as the guys said on the Sunday night show, this is only the first one and it will change dramatically over the next few weeks. I just looked at the final 2019 SR2 regional rankings and Miles wasn't even in the top ten and yet made the playoffs.

Transitive property does not work for college football. Yes LR beat us by double digits that year, but we also beat UWF and LR lost to them. It doesn't translate.

EXACTLY! I'd be interested to look at the first regional rankings and then compare it to the last one/playoff seedings.

It's quite possible that Miles only moved up to 9th in the unreleased final rankings. That's all they needed for Earned Access.
I love seeing these. Could you explain the reasoning behind why Harding would play 5 seed NWMS instead of 6 seed Kearney? Is it just because of distance to travel?

Kearney to Harding is 701 miles. NWMSU to Harding is only 473. A flight is required for anything over 600.
