Title: Selection Sunday
Post by: BearcatFan on October 23, 2008, 01:02:08 PM
Can anyone tell me when the D3 Football Playoff Brackets are decided? 

FAQ's have playoff dates (first is Nov 22) - is Selection Sunday the previous Sunday; Nov 16?

Selection Sunday is Nov. 16.

Indeed, that avatar didn't even come close to flying.

Alright then, a new avatar - too bad SMF resizes them to the point of distortion..

If I'm reading you right, I'd worry about October 25th, THEN November 16...

Believe me, I am - but not having followed D3 football this closely before, I was simply curious about when the playoffs picture is decided. WAY too early to start "counting chickens."

I thought this was a question about Pat going to Bristol this year instead of Charlotte.

I have Nov. 15 open, I'd like to see something with playoff implications. Or conference title (in the case of Amherst-Williams)

The final 4 regional D-III football calls occur after all games are completed on Saturday night, November 15th. The selection of the teams takes place later that night after all the regional calls have been completed and usually lasts well into the morning (2-3-4 am). ESPN will release the brackets on Sunday afternoon at 3:00 PM (I think) on November 16th.

When are the first D-3 regional rankings released?

EDIT: Nevermind, I found Pat's answer on another board. The first set will be out next week.

After today, I'm trying my best to not be looking forward to Selection Sunday. Still need to get by UPS and Menlo.
