By all accounts it appears the Southeast Missouri State Redhawks will be awarded a spot in the upcoming FCS Playoffs after finishing 9-2.  SEMO can still win the OVC automatic bid should Jacksonville State lose its final regular season game next week.

The Sports Network released FCS bracket projection over the weekend and put the Redhawks on the road against Missouri Valley Conference champion Northern Iowa.
