Dude, the bracket was released an hour ago.

Autobids:
Weber State - Big Sky
Kennesaw State - Big South
Maine - Colonial
North Dakota State - Missouri Valley Football
Duquesne - Northeast
Jacksonville State - Ohio Valley
Colgate - Patriot
San Diego - Pioneer
Wofford - Southern
Nicholls - Southland

At-large locks:
Eastern Washington
UC Davis
South Dakota State
James Madison

Very likely:
East Tennessee State
Towson
Delaware
Stony Brook
Indiana State
Montana State

Bubble in: (no particular order)
Southeast Missouri
Elon
Furman
Northern Iowa

Bubble out: (no particular order)
Monmouth
Lamar
Incarnate Word
Rhode Island


NDSU as the #1 seed, no brainer, and heavily favored versus the field.
Kennesaw St, SDSU, EWU & Weber St as #2 to #5 in some order.
Colgate, JMU, UC Davis & Maine - pick 3 for the remaining seeds.

Info mostly pulled and pooled from AGS posters.

Conference champs go first. Sacred heart beat Duguesne. Incarenate Word is in as o-champ and Lamar at 7-4 is a deserving team. I would remove Dequesne, UNI, Furman, Elon, and Montana State. Lamar and IWU gets in. Southland is a multi-bid conference in the playoffs. Having the CAA with 7 teams is way too much. They keep losing to each other.

Sacred Heart did not beat Duquesne. Lamar is very borderline. No good wins. People thought the SHSU win was good at the time, but SHSU turned out to be terrible this year. Again, the official bracket is already out.

Dude, the bracket was released an hour ago.

i disagree with their selections.

1.My bad. Thought Duquense lost to Sacred Heart. They won 28-24, but Sacred Heart is more deserving than UNI.
2.Montana State tied for 4th with Idaho State in the Big Sky. They do not belong.
3.UNI with 5 loses this year. They do not belong since they are one of the weakest teams in the field.
4.Elon do not belong in the field either.

Bracket:

1. NDSU
- UIW@Mont St
2. Weber St
- Stony Brook@SEMO
3. EWU
- San Diego@Nicholls St
4. Kennesaw St
- Elon@Wofford
5. SDSU
- Duquense@Towson
6. UC Davis

7. Maine
- ETSU@Jacksonville St
8. Colgate
- Delaware@JMU
