Details here.

Currently it’s 16 degrees in Sioux City with the wind chill factor, and it’s the afternoon. Saturday’s forecast is for the 30s. Hopefully, that wind chill goes away in the next few days. In any event, I’ll be thinking about today’s image to try and keep warm.

NAIA Men’s Basketball Rankings

I previously mentioned how Carroll College was going to begin feeding computer rankings to NAIA voting coaches (for men’s basketball) in order to improve the coaches’ poll. That process has begun. You can see the results by comparing the Sagarin Ratings with the latest coaches’ poll.

Unlike the football rankings (in which the coaches will frequently put teams in the top 20–and even the top 10–that Massey Ratings doesn’t have in their top 40), these are fairly close. I’m not sure how much of it has to do with Carroll’s efforts. SOU is ranked #13 by the coaches and #11 by Sagarin.

Massey predicts 2015 NAIA FCS semis

As mentioned yesterday, Massey went a perfect 4-0 in forecasting the quarterfinal results. I don’t understand how or why, but Massey is predicting a rematch of last year’s national championship game (even though Massey has Marian ranked lower and St. Francis is at home). Note that St. Francis already beat Marian (on the road no less) earlier this season.

Apparently, I’m less biased than the coaches, but not as unbiased (or prophetic) as Massey Ratings.

Massey said this, and that is exactly what happened.

BTW, Massey said SOU would beat KWU 52-17. SOU won 52-8. Massey said SOU would beat Baker by 3. SOU won by 5. Next time I’ll listen to Massey.

What will Massey say for next Saturday’s games? We won’t know until probably Monday, but since Massey says Baker is the best playoff team at home in the NAIA, and Massey says Baker is better than Morningside, I’m guessing Massey will make SOU a 3 or 4 point favorite over #1 (according to the coaches) Morningside.

Marian will be an underdog at undefeated St. Francis so a rematch of last year’s championship game in Daytona is not extremely likely.

The Raiders are headed to Iowa for next week’s semifinal game against #1 Morningside. I’ve never been to Iowa. I hear it’s warm and beautiful there in December. I’ll let you know in a week.

Gameday!
