FCS Bracketology - Pt. 10

For another week, the Blue Hens are left off the bracket.  I am stuck in the middle on this one, because I did not think they would play Towson that well, but I also thought that after a big win, they might sneak into the play-in round.  Apparently not, as Towson has held their ground there (barely) and Old Dominion has themselves a home game (Maine, JMU, and UNH are the other 3 CAA schools in the bracket).  5 conference foes in this and we play none of them in the final two games.  Delaware is going to need some help from somewhere to get back in the bracket.

FCS Bracketology - Pt. 9

I was planning on arguing every week with where the Hens were placed.  After all, they were coming off a good season and had a fairly easy schedule for CAA standards.  All that has gone down the drain after the Hens have put up two straight awful performances.  Here's this week's bracket, with the Tigers, Delaware's next opponent, replacing the Hens.

FCS Bracketology - Pt. 8

After that loss, the Hens deserve to be dropped that far back.  Maine now gets in on the action as they also receive a play-in round game.  James Madison sits in the 7-seed, and New Hampshire is 9th, giving the CAA four tournament teams, but only two in the top 12.

FCS Bracketology - Pt. 7

So much for a big CAA post-season presence.  Losses by James Madison and William & Mary hurt them enough to put the Dukes in a play-in game and send the Tribe packing.  Towson, Maine, and Old Dominion still aren't getting enough respect to earn a place in the bracket.  Only New Hampshire and Delaware appear to have survived (the two do not play each other this season).  Here is the bracket after this weekend's games:

FCS Bracketology - Pt. 6

After the loss to Maine, I cannot complain about Delaware's drop in the projected bracket.  The bigger effect here is that the CAA is down to just four teams making the playoffs.  They way the Hens have started this season, finishing in the top-4 in the CAA is not going to be an easy task in this new era of parity.  Here's the full bracket:

FCS Bracketology - Pt. 4

Another week, another bracket to moan about.  I get what Craig Haley was doing here, with all the teams on a bye this week.  Delaware remains in the same position as last week.  The big movers are Eastern Washington (dropped) and Montana, who beat them (added).  Here's your bracket:

FCS Bracketology - Pt. 3

I am restricting myself from any complaints this week.  After the Hens poor showing vs. West Chester, even I would keep them out of the top 8.  The one interesting thing of note is EWU's loss this knocks them out of a seed.  Feel free to share your impressions of the 3rd installment of FCS Bracketology.  The bracket follows after the jump...

FCS Bracketology - Pt. 2

One week in and there are a few changes to the original bracket.  I am gearing up for tons of rage here in future Bracketology reviews.  I can tell that this will end up becoming a rant every week and we're only in our second edition here.  This has been your fair warning.  Proceed with caution anytime you see that header on this blog...

FCS Bracketology - Pt. 1

Last season's FCS Bracketology done by The Sports Network was a hit, because it was an attempt at predicting the finish line, not what the bracket would be if the playoffs began today.  Today was Craig Haley's first projection of the season. What follows is the link and analysis of Delaware's current projection.
