They messed up...........I voted us #65,

I just posted it because it hadn't been..........

Why is Elon at #19?

Why does Delaware State have 23 votes.?

OK, I'll stop now. Jeez this poll is bizarre.

The first 0-4 team to ever receive votes?

Montana (3-2) is No. 12 for a second straight week, and, coincidentally, is right above the two teams which handed it losses, Eastern Washington (3-2) at No. 13 and Cal Poly (3-2) at No. 14.

I seriously don't get it. All three teams with identical records, 2 FCS wins, 1 D-II win, and two D-I losses (Cal Poly and EWU both played an FBS team). CP and EWU beat Montana head to head. Is an eked-out win over an unranked Sac State team really that impressive? Or Northern Colorado? TSN can't even get their previous week's rankings right... EWU was 16th, not 13th.

Delaware State is also 0 - 4, and they have more points than SDSU.

Again, sometimes it has to do no with losing, or to whom you lose, but WHEN you lose.

SE, you either haven't been watching these things develop for very long or just haven't paid attention to it. It happens ALL the time. The head to head is a good argument in that particular weeks poll but it becomes less meaningful as the weeks roll on.

I do think that those three should be reversed but acting like it's a travesty at this point is just silly bidness.

Agreed, especially when the games were as close as they were and the rankings are 12, 13, 14. It's not like they ahve the Griz at #5, EWU @ #13 and Cal Poly @ #18.

Not saying it's a travesty, I'm just saying that TSN's poll ain't straight. Okay, maybe I am saying it's a Travisty.

Delaware St has more points than all 4 teams that beat them

There just has to be some idiot meaning to select Delaware, doesn't there? Tell me that's what's going on, because if not, how can this be the so-called official FCS poll?

If it's a straight 1-25 point system and one guy meaning to vote Delaware #3 is accidentally selecting Del State that would explain it.

Apparently a DII win and one FCS win (This week we beat Samford by 5) are good enough to be ranked in the top 20.

It happens every friggin' week with this poll. The only thing to do is refuse to acknowledge the poll's existence until they clean up their voting.
