I had some false hope a few weeks ago and thought my squad was good enough to stick and stay in DIII. Flash forward and it's looking more like relegation with a brutal schedule down the stretch against 1-4 in the Great 8 with one winnable game left.
The Great 8 lived up to the name this season and it will be a shame that one of the top 5 will not make the playoffs as they are all deserving. That is no slight to the Big 8 either, but had I been slotted on that side of things then this would be a different conversation.
