I would guess those two earned the right to have the opportunity play there. If you want to cut Ashland for having two of the top 50 players in the state and not making past the second round go ahead. Most would concur with your thoughts. If you want to take a step further they had three D1's last year as well.

Top 50? Whose Top 50? And, just like a Toyota Corolla and a Lexus are both Toyotas, there are d1s and then there are D1s. Western is a decent, run of the mill, lower level d1 so good luck to both of them. Hopefully, they will get to play. At least, WKU is better than UK but, in most years, so are Highlands and Trinity.
