I have the same reaction I did when I watched Craig James say on ESPN last night that Boise St should be #10: "Now there's a guy that doesn't deserve to have a vote". More than a couple on here. 1-15 is generally OK, 16 down is a mess.

When there is a poll why in gods name is there 38 teams below the 25 that someone thinks should be ranked? JESUS.

Homers. That's why CS doesn't publish any below 35. Voters hoping to get a shill in the results, no longer waste their time and subsequently wind up taking the poll more seriously (IMHO).
As for TSN's bottom 9...just like CS's...the voting was all over the place. Some appear to be focused on WL, some on conference, others on sched. strength. Some programs traditionally start strong, then peter out, others vice-versa.

It's all very predictable and scientific.

How in the fuck are UD and W&M ranked ahead of EWU? Oh yeah, ECB.

If by us you mean CAA choke artists, you would be correct.

First off, SE, 93henfan politely asked you to shut your whore mouth.
Second, 93henfan, please don't use such awful language. Who taught you that?
Third, EWU may make the playoffs.

True. Their schedule, after the first four games, is a bit of a joke.

They will win out and get in.

Isn't Delaware not making the playoffs this year? So....it doesn't matter if their schedule sucks or not, if they make the post season and Delaware doesn't, it is a WIN for them. Just sayin'.

Yeah, if only they had Rhode Island on the docket.

GATW..you were supposed to reply with " yeah, I know. The Big Fluffy Sky is probably the weakest auto-bid conference in the nation. We should be thanking our lucky stars if more than one team makes the playoffs, we will probably lose in the first round anyways. Last year was either a fluke for EWU or it was just the mighty CAA/So Con/MVFC throwing a bone to the weak and feeble minded BFS."

I think I already said in another thread that I believe the SoCon and Big Sky are better than the CAA. You guys invent shit on a fairly regular basis. You don't see me here saying any of the shit you made up there.

A recent example (see my comments): viewtopic.php?f=4&t=26907

The CAA has been the best conference in FCS for about seven or eight years running, but I think that run is over.

sorry.

Friends?

We don't deserve to be in the top 25 after an 0-4 start and currently sitting at .500. Win a couple more games, and then maybe we are in that discussion.

That said, I'd say UD and W & M shouldn't be in there for the same reasons.

Good to see the SWAC having some recognition nationally inspite of the fact they have no automatic playoff bid to play for at the end of the season

Why shouldn't they get recognition and by the way none of the teams you mentioned are in the OVC.Brown is in the IVY League,Furman is in the Southern Conference and Cal-Poly is in another league.

Yeah sorry. I meant ORV. Auto text replaced it with OVC somehow.

And neither Alabama St nor Jackson St get that type of recognition because neither have done anything to support their ranking.

In defense of Alabama St they are among the nation's leaders when it comes to turnover margin that is why they are amonf the best in 1-aa.Also when it comes to scoring defense both Jackson St and Alabama St are 4th and 5th nationally also in scoring offense Jackson St is in 15th in the country.Kejuan Riley of Alabama St is among the nation's leaders in interceptions and he plays Safety he's also been mentioned as a finalist for the Buchannon Award
