12 teams competing for D-B.. bracket? Why not 16?

[culax]

only 2 out of conference games needed for an at-large bid.

For Division B, correct?

The requirement for Division A is 3 OOC games, if I recall correctly.

All teams (A/B) must schedule and play at least 3 out-of-conference games at their own divisional level (home or away) to be eligible for at-large National Championship bid...

You must have missed the updated memo. Maybe check with your conference director or JP. (insert smiley face here).

That poses an interesting question. Montana has three OOC games scheduled, but two of them are against the same team. Same holds true for Montana State. Does that still count as three OOC games or do they need to be three different teams?

I thought it was on this board, but it may have been through e-mail, but JP answered that question that it had to be against different teams... I THINK.

[playlax]

i thought B division teams needed only 2 ooc games.

[KnoxVegas]

Two is correct.

Have any changes been made to this schedule?

Games start on Wednesday. There is no day of rest for Division B teams. The top four teams have a first round bye. 5 seed plays 12, 6 plays 11, etc. Remember, although there are only four Division B games on this day, we still have another whole Division's worth of games going on. We can't run more than four fields at a time based on manpower and resources and need time inbetween for warmups, overtime, etc.

Winners play the top four seeds on Thursday. Right now, Seed 1 plays the winner of the 8 vs. 9 game, Seed 2 plays winner of 7 vs. 10 game, etc.

I believe that is correct.
