The FCS Playoff Committee released its top ten rankings last night with a little bit of a surprise, seeding James Madison ahead of UC Davis. I believe if Davis wins out, they’ll be the number two seed, they’d have the best resume next to North Dakota State, with their only loss to an FBS school, Stanford. The bracket is starting to take shape, I believe the Colonial is going to get five teams, with the Valley at four.
Digest. Debate. Discuss.
