I voted W&M. Don't know much about either them or GSU, though. I think GSU's experience might come into play, but who knows. I just don't think any of the others will lose. Especially not App or Delaware.

I would've voted for UNI, but they weren't a seed, and they've already lost. :oops:

It's not just the App State fans. Seriously. Don't get off the Charter.

How about None of the Above?

If forced, I'd say Montana State, but I don't really think ANY of them will lose.

The question I posed wasn't which team will lose, but rather which team is most likely to lose. Do you want me to explain to you what that means, or do you get it now?

SE: In my mind, the possibility of ANY of the seeds losing in the First Round (technically, what all y'all have been calling the "First Round" is really the "Opening Round") is so remote as to not be worth considering.

Of course, now that I've said it, App is going to get knocked off. :lol:

Agree to disagree then. I don't think any of the seeds will lose in this round either, but I think there's a decent chance that Georgia Southern could beat Bill and Hillary. The next greatest chances of upsets (IMO), in order are: NDSU over MSU, SEMO over EWU, WIU over App, and Lehigh over Delaware.

If I was a betting man, on paper I agree with your assessment with regards to GSU/W&M based upon talent & triple-option (not many teams execute like they do). But it would not surprise me to see either EWU or ASU trip up after a week off. ASU has laid some eggs in the opening rounds (even the games they won....SCSt, JMU) not to mention the games they lost (FAMU &.......MAINE). And I think EWU might just be satisfied enough with sharing the conf crown & beating Montana this year......

I can't argue with picking MSU. We have shown plenty of weaknesses this year, and have struggled against lesser opponents. We somehow keep winning but the odds are our "luck" may run out sometime. But then again, maybe we are just saving our best for last. ;)

Maybe it's an omen, but UD has a faint "X" over their pigeon mascot in the CS header. :twocents:
