Cue Rodney Dangerfield: "I get no respect!" Still not sure how we could be ranked lower than SHU and Davidson (although considering ND beat SDSU who knows might be easier than Jax St). Surprised JMU isn't 1. Tough get for Monmouth too.

I love it....especially this year (Spring season)....really nothing to lose and a lot to gain.

Pretty much a case of disrespect for all of the Northeast.

The two teams that played the fewest games became the 15th and 16th seeds (Monmouth and HC)

SDSU has an outside stadium. Closest major airport is Minneapolis.

So the game is at SDSU and not a neutral field?

So the game is at SDSU and not a neutral field? Yes. They are the #1 overall seed.

Pretty much a case of disrespect for all of the Northeast. I was also surprised to see Richmond not included. JMU disrespected in a way as well. When UMass won, it was an East heavy bracket, but many of those squads are in FBS now.

Not a lot of respect from the ESPN announcers when we were announced. Some Sluka video rolling while they fished about how great SDSU is.

Massey makes SDSU a 22 point favorite (13-35) and gives them a 95% chance for the win at their field. Heck, HC does have a 5% chance for an upset and we have nothing to lose. Go for it!
PS: I hope HC sends a note of "thanks" to the PL for their role in limiting us to 3 games and getting us such a poor seed.

Just a major example of why we need to be out of the PL. New coach then we got our new AD then new President and now we need a new conference

Best way to get a real idea of where the program's at. Besides, wasn't there some similar 1-16 matchup in that part of the country where the guys in purple pulled it out? Hmmm...

Memo to JMU coach. There's a fine line between a chip on the shoulder and whining. You crossed it: "that's what you get for having class." Once you claim credit for having class you lose that class by embarrassing the opponent you are claiming to have had pity for.

SDSU is about 200 miles from Minneapolis-St. Paul airport. Regional airport at Brookings has no commercial service.

His calculator must be smoking.🙂

SDSU beat a 1-5 Youngstown State team by two points. This could be a classic trap game for the Jackrabbits.
As has been previously stated, we have nothing to lose. The pressure’s on them.
Let’s go!

SDS stadium is relatively new and looks gorgeous with lotsa amenities....seats just under 20,000 seats.
And they’re other facilities are impressive....they’re multi-purpose Luth building is massive! Also the hoops arena seats 6,500.
