Okay, this is the list that I come up with. This is based on last years entries and additions based on teams looking thread.

Meja Woodard
Mutiny
Texas Spirit North
FWFC Red
Liberty FC
Dallas Rush
Meja Rangel - They might have secured a bye
FCD Black
Andro West
Warriors
Andro West Red
Heart of Midlothian - However I think most of team is DTS Red now
Coppell
Cyclones
Impact
Oakwood FC?
FC Storm?
Storm FC?   Different team from above
GSSC?
NTX Reign?
Texas Lightning - per post will enter QT
FC OTB?
Blackhawk FC?
Crucible?
Triumph?

Anyone else? Probably looking at 20-25 teams seeking those 4 spots. We should know for sure soon since deadline to apply was yesterday at 5.

Will probably see FC Forse E.S.S. Blue (unless they fell apart - no idea on team status), possibly Solar Chelsea Black.  There was a lot of new teams posting that they intended to be in Lake Highlands, but they were recruiting across multiple age groups, so no idea how old the oldest player on each roster will turn out to be.

**Edit to correct weird way FC Forse's info came across when I posted - For some reason the forums change the word Forse (when spelled correctly) to dribble and changed E.S.S. to E$$ when you don't use a period in between  (an admin should look into that).**

Why is there no "accepted teams" list or seeds? Don't they usually release it long before now?

Updated to show another team that recently found out they have a BYE and won't need to head to QT.

Is FCD Black taking the bye from FCD WTX, or a different team?

FCD WTX was a tough opponent with plenty of quality but it sure was a long drive from Midland.

Curious to hear why you pick Andro West Red to make it instead of Andro West, unless you expect LH to place them in the same group again this year forcing one to beat the other out.  Also, why Coppell FC is left out to requalify.  

My picks:

Coppell
Andro West
Andro West Red
Liberty FC

F.orce E.S.S. as a wild card option to make instead of Liberty.

I think only one Andro team will make it in, Coppell merged with Meja D2, Liberty I have not seen play before, but they toot their horn so maybe a team to watch, Cyclones and Texas Lightning have a chance, Tx Spirit reloaded and could surprise people.

Andro West Red  Strong and won their bracket!!!
Cyclones  another disappointing QT for them, they seem to play good during the year against teams but can't handle the pressure of QT
Tx Spirit North    Still has a chance to make D3
TX Lightning Maybe out also, depends on how they award points for a bracket of 3, they just needed to win or tie both games, the loss could hurt them

Only know a little about the Cyclones team but it does raise the question how a 16th ranked team can’t get out of their bracket year in and year out at QT. Maybe it is the pressure. They seem to play well the rest of the year.

They are a good team but if you are relying on gotsoccer "rankings", you will see a lot of results that don't make sense.
