Welcome back, seedings! And Montclair State and Coe, welcome to the bracket and off of the bubble! The Division III football bracket was released Sunday afternoon on ESPNews, with our own Pat Coleman as the analyst.

The bracket is a PDF download. Click for the bracket as a graphic file if you can't view PDFs.

Wabash and Rowan, sorry, you're out. There was plenty of reason to go either way, and multiple ways to do it. And Redlands and Pacific Lutheran, who were also in it at the end, no dice.

Now that we have seeds again, we have surprises. Here is how the NCAA seeded the brackets:

No. 1 Wesley
No. 2 St. Thomas
No. 3 Mount Union
No. 4 North Central

Mount Union at St. Thomas in the semifinals? UW-Whitewater traveling in the quarterfinals? All of these are possible in this bracket.

We'll have more analysis to come.
