Hero Sports has us out.

Yep, kind of what I was thinking. 🙁

If they looked at resumes without knowing the names of the teams, we'd be in.
Richmond is 3 - 2. Two wins against 1 - 5 Elon, one win against 1 -3 W&M. Got whipped today. No way in hades should they get in. I'll be mad as a rabid Saluki if they get in - s h i t resume. I don't think Hero sports did their homework.
I think the main thing against us is too many teams from the MVFC getting in. They won't want to let that happen. I think we have a better resume than MoSt but they beat us. No way they played as tough of an FCS schedule - Oklahoma is skewing that SOS number.
Mike asked NH if he thought we'd get in. He said he didn't know - thought for sure we'd get in last year but didn't. He did think we had a better resume than MoSt or Richmond.
Prediction: SDSU wins the national championship!

So true, Woogers.

Though I have to admit this: you could probably say that about the NCAA basketball tourney with selections and seedings weighted toward the big boys.
Funny to be in the equivalent of a P5/6 conference and on the other side of this argument.

"We're 5-1, ffs!"
"Yeah, but look at the CONFERENCE WE HAVE TO PLAY IN!"
Same thing.
"MMMeh! Totally DIFFERENT!"
No, it's not, really.

For sure. If 5 MVFC teams got in, a lot of teams out there would feel about us like we feel about the Big 10 during NCAA selection time.
Again, some deserving team (most likely US!) will be left out. Sucks.

I thought SIU was surely out last year. I think they have a better case this year but the small field is probably gonna keep them out. If they take 5 MVFC teams though, they'll be in, I just don't see it. But we'll see.
they have said for years that there is no conference quota. it doesnt matter that 4 of the 6 best remaining teams are in one conference. they are supposed to take the 6 best.
hero sports is laughable putting kennesaw and murray ahead of us. they obviously put almost no research in to it.
Craving a McBride Special!

not even close. 5 MVFC teams isn't even half the league. big 10 gets 80% of the league.

🤔 Yes, I will be mad as well. 😆
