Re: Griz in AP poll
Unbeaten Montana received a vote in this week's Associated Press Top 25, and Ray Ratto is comfortable putting the Griz in with the big boys of the Football Bowl Subdivision.
Not that he did it because of Montana's 40-0 surge to beat South Dakota State on Nov. 28 or Chase Reynolds' 21 touchdowns or Marc Mariani's sublime pass routes.
"What's Montana done to not be considered?" asked Ratto, a columnist at the San Francisco Chronicle who has one of 65 votes in the AP poll. "The answer is nothing.
"I kind of have a soft spot for really good FCS teams, when I can't make up my mind between which four-loss (FBS) team is better than this other four-loss team."
Filling out a top 25 ballot can be daunting late in the season, as programs start to rack up the losses. The Pac-10, for example, is notably tough on itself: Oregon State, Stanford and Arizona all have four losses; two more four-loss teams, USC and California, fell out of the rankings this week.
