Once again, Hensley Ratings showed that they know more about which teams are better than the coaches. The NAIA Championship Game in Florida next week (12/19/14) looks, on paper (based on the NAIA Football Coaches’ Top 25 Poll), like a surprising #8 seed (SOU) vs. a surprising #7 seed (Marian). However, when the final computer rankings came out a few weeks ago, the Raiders were #2 and Marian was #3. As I mentioned before, the Carroll vs. SOU quarterfinal game pitted the top two teams against each other and SOU came out on top.
So don’t be surprised that Southern Oregon University and Marian University Indianapolis made it to the finals. Be surprised that they weren’t awarded home games for the quarter and semifinals.
