I understand the NCAA flips the tab.. And on that note with all the "grift" in college sports the NCAA should pay for the travel regardless of round and venue.. 

ONU Colorado College game a toss up...Interesting CC has only 1-2 kids on roster from Colorado..822 million dolla endowment..  They can afford to travel..-  I'm rooting for the OAC and ONU and Region 7..

The NESCAC clearly the SEC of D3 Soccer..  Over 400  D3 programs yet they get 4 into the final 16.  Would like to see the NCAA spread out the teams and not make the first 2 rounds so local.  The best teams should get to advance regardless of cost.. The games are amazing to watch.  Looking fwd to the weekend..

ONE Region 7 Team through..But 5-2 on the first day, 6-6 overall against some great teams and conferences. Great games to watch no doubt. Had 3-4 games on at once. The OAC showed well vs. the 1st and 2nd Ranked teams in D3 mens soccer on the road..

Rooting for all the Region 7 teams that get to play with their teammates another match and beyond. I get to research who they playing.  I don't watch too many games from other far away conferences.  Nothing like the tournament to settle it on the field..

And who is handing out my Karma ranking..?    LOL

PN- Your 24/7/365 analysis to D3 Soccer is as good as it gets.  But don't think other "moronic" (per PAClassic) observers don't have another opinion that might not be similar to your humble opinion.  You giving your opinion. As I am.  The fact 2 NCAC teams hold the 1st and 2nd spots in the "Rankings" is comedy to me as I watch not all but most of the games. The OAC is the better and deeper conference this year.  Being ranked higher in the weeks leading up to the finish means allot..

Don't mean to `bogart the board but let me get this straight...

MTU #7 Kenyon #1 in region..

Better Winning %
Better RVR
Better QUALIty CWRU/Calvin Wins
Much deeper Conference
But .04 SOS less..

And they 6 teams back??

Whaa

Last ranking-
Kenyon 14-3 Tops  in  Region

Mt. Union 15-2-1

MTU 2 huge out of conference wins..

Kenyon a .04 stronger SOS..

LOL

Someone gotta make a decision at the end.  It sure does help if you have peeps that put u at the top of the rankings in the weeks prior to the end when it all goes down.   Seriously.  I say they should playoff and end it on the field regionally vs. the current massively flawed arbitrary scrub system.  On a positive note the games are truly great to watch..eh

One could make a case that 7 teams could get at large in OAC and NCAC.  And CWRU.  Tough decision for whomever
makes the decision.  Who is on the committee?

Moronic answer as expected

Hey if you gonna talk smack and call my answer "Moronic" when im just commenting for fun. You gotta at least stop hiding behind your keyboard...BWAHAHA   

How so?  Because u say so..  LOL  And u call me Moronic!  Who r u to sling insults..  U know my name.  Who r u..  LOL

The common sense troll..Heartbreaker tonight at JCU..

JCU most likely wins easy at home tonight. But if they lose I still say they get in if you use the sub par SOS and RVR scrub methodology..The OAC the strongest conference in Region 7 I say.. EH
