Though the field for the 2018 FCS Playoffs was clarified a little bit a week before the selection of the field, a chaotic upset-filled week not only thrust an unlikely team to a conference championship at autobid, it sets up a final weekend of the FCS regular season filled with meaningful games. About the only.
This week, we saw two FCS football programs punch their ticket for the FCS Playoffs. To few people’s surprise, undefeated 9-0 (6-0) North Dakota State made what was formally assumed now for weeks, clinching their autobid to the FCS playoffs with a bitterly-fought 17-7 win over Youngstown State. To even fewer people’s surprise, undefeated 8-0.
You know what’s great, especially in this FCS playoff bracket picking game? Occasionally being right. Most weeks, it seems, I need to rip up by bracket and start over, because of all the upsets and outcomes I failed to pick correctly. Then there are weeks like last week, where Wofford takes care of business against.
If you want some solid evidence that I don’t know what I’m talking about, take a look at my picks for the bracket this week. Maine, a seed? Sure – until William And Mary made like Dikembe Mutumbo and said “No, no, no”, upsetting the Black Bears 27-20. East Tennessee State, a seed? Talk about.

The prohibitive favorite in the CAA, James Madison, lost their first game since forever – at home! – against Elon. Weber State, in control of their Big Sky destiny, lost a head-scratcher to.
This week we feature the number “3”, as in this is my third stab at trying to pick the the FCS Playoff field. They say three is a magic number, but unless your thinking about the best No. 3 in the FCS – that happens to be UC Davis’ Keelan Doss, pictured above – it’s.
This week, the NHL’s Philadelphia Flyers unveiled their “mistaken on so many levels” mascot named “Gritty”. A bug-eyed, orange psycho Muppet that is named after America’s least-favorite sportswriter adjective, it’s not abundantly clear if it’s just a misfire on every conceivable level, or whether Philadelphia Flyers fans will embrace his unloveable demeanor in a “so.
Just as Chuck Burton has done his projections for the FCS playoff, the following are using the Sagarin rankings to fully project the field. Keep in mind that there are automatic bids to the following conference champions so the projects also keep this criteria in mind: Big Sky Conference Big South Conference Colonial Athletic Conference.
In years past, I would wait to try to figure out who might be in the FCS Playoffs in any given year. I would try to look at analytics, Top 25s, Sagarin ratings, the Massey ratings composite, and a ton of other things to try to project a sensible, common-sense FCS playoff projection that tried.
