The scenario I mentioned almost a couple months ago has come to pass. Massey has had the Raiders in the top four since September and now has SOU in the #3 spot. Unfortunately, the coaches’ poll determines playoff locations. The Mid-South Conference, with 5 votes in the coaches’ poll, has put two of their teams at home for the quarterfinals.

Southern Oregon becomes a slight underdog in this situation, instead of a huge favorite at home with a team like Northwestern coming to Ashland, due to the seedings being based on the coaches instead of impartial Massey. Massey says Lindsey Wilson will win 35-33. I think the Raiders will win 45-24.

Massey was more impressed with Montana Tech’s trouncing of Eastern Oregon (by 48) than SOU’s win, even though SOU beat Massey’s spread of 16 (by 5) yesterday. Hence, Montana Tech moved into Massey’s #3 spot. Barring two upsets to the Raiders or Tech, the final game of the regular season, in which Southern Oregon will play at Montana Tech, is shaping up to be an absolute huge affair.

In tomorrow’s coaches’ poll SOU will likely move past St. Xavier, Southeastern, and Doane to come in at #10. There is a chance the Raiders can slip past Arizona Christian (who Massey has at #42) as well.

The 4-0 Raiders play at home again this coming Saturday. Massey has SOU as 11-point favorites against 3-2 Rocky.

The new 2017 NAIA Football Coaches’ Top 25 Poll came out today. People mocked me for saying the coaches would have Eastern Oregon ahead of SOU in the poll even after SOU beat Eastern at a neutral location.

I said Montana Tech would end up #5 and they did. I said Eastern Oregon would be ranked somewhere between #11 and #15 (#11 was actually my best guess), and they came in at #11. I said SOU would be somewhere between #14 and #18 (with #17 being my best guess), and the Raiders came in at #14. I had Western Montana at #21, and the coaches have them at #28, quite a hit for a team that barely lost to a higher ranked team on the road, but the coaches are idiots when it comes to the rankings.
