This is true in general. But as it stands right now, one conference should be representing 40% of the teams ranked in the top 10. But the MVFC might truly be stacked and see a couple of it's at-larges make deep playoff runs. Will be interesting to watch.

That's what NDSU did year before last - 4-4 in conference and made a nice run in the playoffs. Stronger conference this year
You matter. Unless you multiply yourself by c squared. Then you energy.

He had two break away runs, but otherwise our defense played well that day, too. Your defense absolutely shut down our offense though. It's not like I was taking any shots at your team - didn't even mention them - but you immediately take exception and get shitty. Way to stay classy.

I think he was just trying to tell you that the Jacks are in first place not the Sycs. He was taking exception to you claiming 1st place. But it's a non-issue the football season goes on and it only matters where you land in the end.....

I don't think the MVFC is overrated. It's a very tough league. There are no gimmes in this league. Last Saturday was just the latest example.

The GPI kind of verifies the MVFC as the top league with 5 of the top 15 coming from the Valley.
