9-3 pretty easy schedule this year. Should be on the cusp of the playoffs, but may be on the outside looking in even with a good record because of the poor strength of schedule.

It's one of those giant conferences with an unbalanced schedule. Remember when they used to criticize the CAA about that? :lol:

I know. It sucks. first year since 1971 we haven't played Montana. We didn't play MSU in 2012 - first time since 1967 for them. We joined the Big Sky in 1970

I didn't look at rosters or any in depth analysis...so this is just as credible as any other preseason poll. :coffee:

Bullshit that EWU, UM and MSU are the only decent teams? You're right. May only be two.

Backpedal on what? Back when the CAA had so many teams, they had so many teams in the Top15 that you couldn't miss them all. Who in the BSC besides EWU does NAU play that's actually a top team? SUU? :lol:

I believe EWU is the only BSC team with a national title in the last dozen years and UM is the only other BSC team to make the semis in that timeframe. Next best is probably MSU with a couple quarterfinal appearances.

How many BSC teams were in the top 20 last year? FIVE ended the year in the top 20. No different than the glory days of the CAA.
