I think the committee needs to explain how you can put 4 intraconference in first 2 rounds. Yet they've never tried to do so before a quarter in any year.

The SLU Sam game understandable if you use they didn't play excuse. But they've expressly have said before, they wouldn't do until quarters to maintain balance.

Top 4 teams in the FCS by Sagarin...

1. NDSU
2. UNI
3. Illinois State
4. SDSU

What a joke that they all play each other in round 2. Not really a surprise though, this is the same committee that seeded UNH #1 and NDSU #2 because NDSU lost later in the season. That was the reason the committee chairman gave on national tv.
