A rematch of the Finals in the round of 8? I think I would be surprised if Juniata wasn't the #1 seed, but Juniata vs Trinity is always a fun match!
Also, please let Juniata not be the 2-seed. That makes them the early match. I can get away with leaving early, but not showing up to work at all on Wednesday probably isn't going to fly LOL

Suffice it to say, that if JC is not the 1 seed, then they must have different seeding criteria and I am naive to that process.

First version of the 2023 Nationals Guide is posted. Updates to the schedule and seeding in the Guide may be tardy due to the publisher's world record sleep duration attempt.

Suffice it to say, that if JC is not the 1 seed, then they must have different seeding criteria and I am naive to that process. I understand that they do use the criteria data for the seeding. That is how the usual NE region team would be 5th or so. They shouldn't, it should be pure eyeball. The criteria scorecard game feels silly with Oshkosh and Juniata(their ranked record is 9-0 on the data sheets). Either at #1 is fine. Oshkosh had the better body of work with the toughest schedule in the nation(with the advantage of being somewhere you can build a schedule that difficult).

Finals are being held at CMS Nov 29, 30, and Dec 2. I've been out of the game for a while, but didn't the D3 championship used to conclude the weekend before Thanksgiving?

They did conclude before Thanksgiving. However, there were a lot of concerns around athlete health, playing 6 matches in approximately 10 days in order to win. So, D3 gave an extra week of regular season, and moved the tournament to two weekends on either side of Thanksgiving (close to what it used to be in the early 2000s and before). Back when I played, you played your 3 regional matches. Then had Quarterfinals as a stand alone match the weekend before Thanksgiving. Then finals were a week after Thanksgiving (except my senior year when the NCAA decided to make the finals on Thanksgiving weekend. That was a treat...) They used to need the extra week between Quarterfinals and Final Four because the National Championship host site was not pre-determined.
