Colgate and SC State way too high.

And Holy Cross shouldn't be ranked at all.

And the OVR category - man that's a mess.

Another joke of a poll

The TSN is a joke, but not because they don't have you in it. NAU deserves to be in the Top25, but not by a whole lot.

The two or three people who keep saying this or that poll is a joke seem to be the ones who's team is just outside the Top 25.

Agreed on NAU, but to have JMU at 16 is ridiculous. We are behind Towson in the South, with a losing record, no way should we be that high.

That's why I'm thinking this is a joke

TSN really is starting to suck.

After one week of the CS poll I'm already liking it better.

The TSN had an 0-4 team in the middle of all the teams with votes. uh k

Colgate too high...
Florida A&M? How good are they
Delaware too low.

Should EKU & Holy Cross even be ranked still?
I'd rather see NAU in there and Furman.
SUU should be ranked or close to if if they win at Cal Poly on Sat.

I like Jacksonville State at #12. They're a hot team moving up each week.

UC-Davis with 36 votes I'm not sure I'm sold on them almost being ranked. They have 2 wins, SD in OT and a DII.

I also think Nova should still be a top 5 team.

Agree with the above, although, Morgan St receiving votes is not that out of line.

ORV is a train wreck!!

Man, I hate to see ODU in the OVR section. They obviously are looking at 4-2 and not at ODU's stats. We may be 4-2, but two of those 4 were DII and the other two were teams that most FCS team would blow through like tissue paper.

Hey TSN, give us a few years and we'll earn our way onto the polls, but for now leave us alone and let us develop the program.

Take a look at their results:

No way should anyone consider Morgan St. a top 25 team.

Have to agree there. Morgan State is one of the biggest enigmas I've ever seen. They've been outgained by an incredible 137 ypg (327-190), yet they are somehow 4-1. They've also been outscored by 4 points-per-game. They even have a minus-3 turnover margin.

How the hell does a team get outgained considerably and lose turnovers half the time, yet still end up 4-0 against FCS?
