ATN Podcast: It’s truly time to talk playoffs

Yep, we’re eight weeks into the season and it’s finally time to talk in-depth about the postseason — picks, prognostications, problems and the like. If you’re new to Division III, we’ll give you a quick roundup of how it’s set up and if you’re a veteran, we’re ready to talk about strength of schedule and who the top at-large candidates are. Will three WIAC teams make it? Can Hardin-Simmons avoid playing Mary Hardin-Baylor in the first round? The first full answers are in this podcast.

The Around the Nation Podcast is a weekly conversation between Pat Coleman and Keith McMillan covering the wide range of Division III football. It drops on Monday morning weekly throughout the season.

  1. There doesn’t seem to be a very large pool for Pool B with only three independent schools. What other schools would be eligible for this spot? And would any of them have a winning record?

  2. The ASC and SCAC do not have automatic bids, so those teams are also in Pool B. If there were just three teams, we wouldn’t even have a Pool B bid, so at least that’s taken care of.

  3. I figured you’d have that at your finger tips so I would have to dig up this years NCAA rule book and look it up. Interesting, one of the teams in the nation getting number 1 votes could wrap up the Pool B slot.

    In re-listening to the podcast (I download it for just that reason) I think Platteville would love the opportunity to knock Mount Union out in the first round this year.
