Crazy how many teams received first place votes. EWU with 4. Villanova with 1.

Welcome to the Top 25, RMU!

Jacksonville State got a first place vote...

this poll is a joke.

Do you think anyone that has actually watched Bethune Cookman play would say they are one of the 10 best teams in the country? I'd like to see who the 3 guys are that voted them #1

The MEAC is getting a serious gift right now with two teams ranked that high based on nothing more than a close game in the playoffs that happened a full year ago now

Neither SCSU or BCU have beaten anyone this year or done anything this year that suggests the MEAC is worthy of two Top 15 teams.

How is it that they never cease to amaze me in their stupidity?

Yes, RMU finally made the poll (sneaking in at 25), but this is still a joke.

I posted this on AGS as well.

BCU is not a top-10 team, period. The #1 votes are absurd.
Liberty should not be 13 spots ahead of RMU.
SCSU, a 2nd place MEAC team, has no business at #15.
Jacksonville is a joke at #22.

Also, how can you have Jacksonsvill at #22 and Dayton with a nearly identical resume not got a single vote?

These guys just choose names out of a hat for their own political purposes. The NCAA needs to step in and fix this!

This needs to be fixed. I don't know how, but the fact that this poll does actually sorta mean something means it needs to be fixed.

EWU moves up a spot after a bye, the Cats move up only 1 spot after beating a team that beat the #10 or whatever the Griz were last week? Cool.

I agree. MSU should be higher; not sure why they're not.

This poll is used for the PFL's "bridge AQ," so it is officially used in playoff selection.

The NCAA has an obligation to ensure it is fair and unbiased.

You be quiet! The more MEAC teams that make the playoff field this year the better!

Probably true. The more MEAC teams in the playoffs = more wins for everyone else.

Hey...for what will probably be our last year in the playoffs, might as well go down swinging

Do you think it's biased or just plain ole ignorant?

Better question is which of those is worse?

EXACTLY! I'm not totally sure which it is, but I'll say it's combination of both. The problem is these are PAID PROFESSIONALS and there is no excuse for either.

Hold up! Are you telling me that guy who writes the CAA Today write up get PAID for that????

And does anyone else think he isn't the Nova #1 vote?

Yes.

No one else is playing along/cares. You are the only reason why I haven't posted my "creation". If you ignore me long enough, I'll pull it down.
