I think most others are savvy enough to not try and spin their not making cut

Yeah, not sure why the rush to say "we're among the first to be eliminated!"

If I were an ECU fan I would appreciate knowing

One reply says Cincinnati is out too. Any truth behind that?

Unless Cincinnati announced it, we don't know

Ecuador or Bug 12?
