FB: Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference

As I back up to get a grander view and look at who is where on the NPI At Large 11, it seems to me BU would also want UMHB to lose to Hardin-Simmons, as it might put UMHB lower than BU. However, Johnnie fans would want the opposite result to preserve their #8 protected seeding. There are so many games that will have an impact on the final NPI determination. Gonna be a fun day to be watching D3 Football!

Also, I think CMS upsetting Chapman would help BU's NPI standing as well.

Lastly, we want Northwestern to win at MN Morris so they can come to Bethel next weekend.

Isn't it possible that if enough games go their way, could get a bye? I can't remember if 24 or 32 teams get a bye, though I think its 24 so unlikely I guess

I am not sure if I won, I think we need to hear from SJUJohnnie before declaring victory. We got our electrical bill from Excel Energy this week and it was the lowest it has ever been. Perhaps the savings could be used to travel to a SJU football game if they could go deep in the playoffs this year?!? A guy can dream.

Congratulations are in order, Robert! You beat me by less than 24 hours. My wife is allergic to cold. She complains that it's cold when I'm sweating my rear off. My daughter has been sick & the forecast low was 20 degrees yesterday morning with a chance it would hit the teens. I had mercy on them & turned on the furnace just before midnight Thursday night. To say that I am distraught is an understatement. I did not divulge to my wife that this competition was going on, but she suspected as much. When she found out that we were competing for "bragging rights" she was less than impressed. I know for a fact that I could've continued this for much longer. Will try to look for the silver lining to pull me out of the depths of my despair!

Congratulations again!
