Why September Polls are for amusement only

Post by bluehenbillk »

Two #1's bite the dust, who's on top now?

JMU should shoot way up, beating VaTech.

Is CalPoly going to be Ok this year? From a sub.500 year...

SIU blown away vs Illinois, NIU beats NDSU who beat KU who beat GT..what's that mean besides UNI is 1-0?

UD crushes SDSU, is UD back with an established ruuning game now? Is SDSU over-rated?

UMass picked 8th in CAA (basically last as TU & URI don't count) and they look good the 1st 2 weeks...

Is Furman back or is crushing/playing a Patriot League team a non-barometer anymore?? If anyone did pay attention to the PL, uh Lafayette? That's bad.

And finally, why would people rank Richmond in their top 10? Based on what exactly?

Isn't college football great!!

My mind is officially blown. The first two weeks in both FCS and FBS have been fucking ridiculous. So many upsets, near upsets, surprisingly close games. Sucks to be a poll voter. But I agree.


I fucking love college football!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

personally, I've always thought that losses to FBS teams (especially BCS) should essentially be treated like bye weeks in the FCS polls. i.e. not penalizing the FCS team for the loss. though other teams could certainly jump them if they had impressive meaningful wins.
