It seems like we have something new and something classic in the NCR D1AA semifinals.
Something classic would be Louisville vs Bowling Green, which features two teams that play each other twice a year just about every year (once in regular MAC conference play and, usually, once in the MAC playoffs, generally the final).
That's the case this year with the Cardinals having beaten the Falcons twice in competitive matches.
But Bowling Green were NCR D1AA finalists last year and are largely unchanged from that lineup. Add to that their offensive explosions in wins over Babson (55-3) and Virginia Tech (71-24) and this might be a different BGSU team.
Louisville, however, is playing solid defense and is excellent at getting under opponents' skin.
These two teams have been in each of the last three NCR D1AA finals and will make it four next week.
