SAA -- Centre can clinch the Pool A bid with a win over Berry

And WashU clinches the SAA Pool A bid with a Berry win over Centre, correct?  (Assuming they defeat Chicago)
And Berry would get the Pool A bid with a win over Centre AND a Chicago win over WashU.

Good point.

Are the regional rankings published every Wednesday until the brackets are set?

Nope. I just educated a bunch more casual readers who hop on at playoff time.

RE:  Mount Union's SOS from http://loganahansen21.wixsite.com/hansen-ratings/single-post/2016/03/13/A-Treatise-on-Strength-of-Schedule

Excluding the PAC and MWC, every conference plays a round-robin style regular season schedule. If we were to calculate a conference-only SoS using the NCAA's system, the conference's average SoS would always be 0.500 (because it's a closed loop; there has to be one victory for every loss). But not all coferences are created equal. The NCAA obviously recognizes this, and uses the OOWP metric to try to get some indication of a team's schedule relative to the nation, but the limited number of non-conference games for some teams again skews their results.
The UMAC does not field very competitive football teams on the national scale (they regularly rank last or second-to-last in my system and in d3football.com's conference rankings). The UMAC also plays a nine game conference schedule, meaning each team only plays one non-conference game per year. Here's a list of their teams' SoS as calculated by the NCAA in 2015:


AMC Champs: 1991-1992-1993-1994-1995
HCAC Champs: 2000, 2001
PAC Champs:  2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016
Bridge Bowl Champs:  1990-1991-1992-1993-1994-1995-2002-2003-2006-2008-2009-2010-2011-2012-2013 (SERIES OVER)
Undefeated: 1991, 1995, 2001, 2009, 2010, 2015
Instances where MSJ quit the Bridge Bowl:  2

I guess it is time for the first regional rankings next week.  This Saturday would be the final games to impress the rankings.

Here is an excellent podcast that explains the playoffs.  I strongly recommend it for anyone who has questions, or who wants a refresher.

Area code for Case Western Reserve is 216... I'm thinking it's a good omen for the Spartans.

I just hope that the bracket has the chance for UMHB or HSU (or both) to meet Berry.  Now that Wesley is gone, UMHB seems to be sent West.

It has been a long time since the ASC has played from eastern time zone of the South Region.

Here are ASC opponents from the South Region in the post season. (Partial listing of other games.)

2017 UMHB - None; HSU None
         HSU   -  Loss at Linfield 13-27
2016 UMHB - None: HSU None
         HSU  -  Loss at Linfield 10-24
2015 UMHB - HSU round 1; Huntingdon round 2
         HSU  --- Loss at UMHB
2014 UMHB - TLU (Pool B) round 1
2013 UMHB - None
2012 UMHB - Louisiana College round 1; Wesley round 3 (W)
        LaColl
2011 UMHB - McMurry round 2; Wesley round 3 (L);
         McM      McMurry Trinity (W)
2010 UMHB - CNU (59-7) Thomas More (69-7) Wesley (9-19)
2009 UMHB - None
        Miss Coll Huntingdon 56-35; - round 2 Wesley 9-43

it seems there was a change sometime around 2013/14.  Do you think it is just a lack of teams in travel distance in South or is it the need to find teams for the west bracket?

Congrats on winning your conference's AQ. Wish you well in the playoffs whoever you face. Nice to see some newer teams doing well. Of course, don't mind an older Mount Union team also doing well!
Go Vikings!
