6 MVFC playoff teams

Post by clenz »

It could happen according to Craig Haley
http://athlonsports.com/college-footbal ... yoff-teams

The Missouri Valley Football Conference could become the first FCS conference to have five playoff teams in three consecutive seasons in 2016. But the preeminent conference in the FCS appears strong enough to take its success to a higher level.

The MVFC could gain six playoff bids — one-quarter of the 24-team field — which would be a first.

Behind five-time reigning national champion North Dakota State, the MVFC has 18 playoffs wins over the last two years, when its playoff qualifiers have matched the FCS single-season record previously held by CAA Football. The CAA had five in both 2007 and ’08 when the field was only 16 teams deep, then again in 2011 when there were 20 qualifiers.

So the 10-team Missouri Valley would love to take the standard to a higher level.

“It would take a perfect storm for any conference to exceed five playoff teams in a single season,” said Missouri Valley associate commissioner Mike Kern, “but if it were to happen, the MVFC is poised to be the first.”

This is Jon, fishing. Apparently the ONLY guaranteed OOC win against Big Sky teams is UNI's game against UM. :lol: :lol:

It makes sense if you read it as EWU being "tits up".
