4_tattoos Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 Alright folks, it's that special time of year for fans of lower division college football. Divisions 2 and 3 are wrapping up their seasons today, and tournament selection is tomorrow. Division 1 FCS tournament selection comes next week (11/22/2015).I don't follow JuCo or NAIA football, but I'm sure someone amongst us does and could provide further info on their respective postseasons.Best of luck to all the teams! Let the games (and trash talk) begin! Hotter Than July > Thriller Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seadragon76 Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 I can help...Division II: The field has expanded as now the top 7 in each region are in. The 7 seed plays at the 6 seed next week in the regions, then the winner gets the 3 seed the following weekDivision III: Same as before. 32 teams with 25 automatic bids, 6 at-large bids and 1 special bid for conferences that don't have an automatic bidNAIA: Same as before. 16 team field.NJCAA: Same as before. Bowl games. One thing to note... if the top two teams in the polls meet in a bowl game, that bowl game is the designated National Championship game. If they don't meet, then the final rankings (released on December 8th) would decide the national champion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4_tattoos Posted November 16, 2015 Author Share Posted November 16, 2015 Looks like I'll be rooting for Bowie State, Virginia Union and Tuskegee in D2. As well as Johns Hopkins and Salisbury in D3.Don't follow NAIA so I'll just randomly pick a team to root for in that tournament... *takes time out to scroll back up and choose a NAIA team*.... I'm gonna go with Morningside.Edit: So I chose Morningside as my NAIA tournament team solely based on the team sharing the same name as one of the towns in my home county in Maryland. Did a little Google search after my intial post and discover that Morningside College is the number 1 ranked team in NAIA. It appears I subconsciously hopped on the bandwagon. Oh well lol. Go Mustangs! Hotter Than July > Thriller Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheRicSlick Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 It's a shame the HCC was terrible this year. First year they won't be playing in the Salt City Bowl. Although as a consolation prize (for me), a close family friend will be playing in the Salt City Bowl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ICTknight Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 It's kinda surprising to see how Butler CC has fallen recently. Loosing their coach probably didn't help alot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4_tattoos Posted November 20, 2015 Author Share Posted November 20, 2015 I've grown beyond tired of seeing Mount Union and Wisconsin Whitewater playing in the Stagg Bowl every year. Honestly hope they both get eliminated at some point before the D3 championship. Let's get some new blood in there!

4_tattoos Posted November 21, 2015 Author Share Posted November 21, 2015 Welp, Bowie State and Virginia Union both lost today, but Tuskegee advanced. Still have one dog left in the D2 fight.And in D3 Johns Hopkins wins, while Salisbury loses.I'll check on how Morningside did in NAIA later.

Seadragon76 Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 Morningside is down 47-33 to St. Xavier right now.

WizKid Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 Anybody know what time the FCS tournament selection show is or where I can watch it? No luck finding it online.The show is tomorrow at 11am on ESPNU. I'll post the link when it's available.This MEAC champion situation (3 way tie but NC Central is eliminated) will be interesting once the Sagarin ratings are released early Sunday morning. I know that who ever loses the tiebreaker between (#13)NC A&T and (#25)Bethune-Cookman could snatch an at-large bid to the FCS playoffs tomorrow. The tiebreaker winner plays the winner of next week's SWAC Championship Game (Grambling vs Alcorn rematch in Houston) for the Celebration Bowl December 19th. Plus, it'll be shown live on ABC.Also, I wasn't suprised my BSU Bulldogs took that L against Assumption. Penalties and lack of production hurt them both today and last week in the CIAA championship vs Winston-Salem State. I'm not even going to speak about VA Union's performance. Hope those 'Skegee Golden Tigers win it all! GrizzlyBlack Designs, UDC Firebird Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seadragon76 Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 The SWAC title game is actually on December 5th.
