Week 10 SR4 Bracketology

[the Northeasterner]

It will take two wins for NSU. And that will be hard sell. We have mckendree at home on 8th and are on the road at a good west Alabama team on the 15th

But if we do win both then we should be in the talk for a regional ranking and a PO berth. The strength of schedule will be high.

If we hadn't let MSST come back in last we would have already been in discussions.

Chadron St. Pitt and Western OR could all have 3 losses. Then is it a 4 or 5 team race for 3 spots with UTPB and NSU throwing their helmets in the ring

If that happens than in my opinion Northeastern State, Pitt St., and UTPB all get in if they win out while Chadron and Western Oregon are out.

Angelo State could re-enter the chat if all that happens above winning out and Northeastern State loses 1 game but its a super long shot.

If Chadron, Pueblo, and Western Oregon win Saturday, then I think you will have your top 8 playoff teams set.

First 4 Out: UTPB 7-2, Southern Arkansas 6-3, Northeastern St. 4-2, East Central 6-3

I dont think there is any path for the 3 loss GAC schools unless several upsets happen.

Which one would they choose? They are all going to be tied with a .500 SOS with no head to head tiebreakers over all.

I will say Ouachita Baptist has figured it out and its a shame they are going to miss and have the best chance as the second place GAC team.
