The conference certainly isn't unfolding like people expected it would going into the season.
But I, for one, don't think that makes it bad or "sucky". It may not be the strongest that the league has ever been, but I wouldn't be surprised in the least to see an MVFC team make a deep playoff run (I just don't know which team it might be, yet :lol: ), especially since many of the other conferences have been somewhat unpredictable as well.

Agreed. Several of the conferences are feeling a bit topsy-turvy right now. I don't think it speaks to the suckiness either.

Yeah, that's kinda what happens during conference season. But in MY poll, the top 3 MVFC teams all lost. That's a beating, and will hurt you in MY poll. :coffee: :coffee:
Nah, I was just rehashing. Your title kinda implied the MVC dropped a bunch of OOC games. Every conference takes a beating every week, it's just within themselves.

I didn't know that WIU was a surprise and just now getting recognition. They started at 21 in my first poll and have been moving up the last couple weeks. After playing Purdue decent and then an absolute dismantling of SHSU I thought they were at the level of the best of the MVFC this year if not the best team in the conference.

They won ONE game last year, and also lost to ISUb. Considering how terrible they were last year, I'd say them winning like they have so far is definitely a surprise.

Ok, my bad. I thought we were talking and ranking this years team. Have you watched them play this year? They have some real power and remind me a lot of last years SDSU team.

I guess I shouldn't have had them in my top 20 the last couple of weeks either. Oh well, live & learn I guess. :thumb:

I'm not saying they shouldn't be ranked. They should be ranked.

I was just arguing that people should be surprised. They lost 10 games last year.

WIU has a pretty solid squad. Its amazing how much better they are with Barr at QB. They do have 16 seniors, that helps. Who knows with the conference this year. It's still wide open. Its gonna be an exciting second half of the season.


With the exception of ISU-b and SDSU, I have no idea how its gonna unfold.

WIU is a different team with Barr, they would have won more last year if he had played a full season.

I could care less how ignorant everyone else is. If you want to bash NDSU because they beat a Big !2 Powerhouse you should start first with your own Big Time FBS victory. You tell me Kansas got beat bad and that makes The NDSU BISON less worthy and Ill tell you why you are full of shit. The BISON Beat Kansas. The NDSU BISON dont have to make excuses like they didnt play well except for fumbles, they had injuries, no NDSU won!!

Kansas looks bad because the NDSU BISON Knocked the Stuffing out of Them. The season is in a shambles. Gill's carreer might be shot? Their season is lost because they got beat by The NDSU BISON. Heck, UNI hasnt even recovered.

Thats it for this game folks. Up next Youngstown State. A team thats on a roll.

You are talking about the YSU team that just lost this weekend right?

I find the fact that you couldn't give a shit about knowing a god damn thing about even your own conference mates quite refreshing. Keep it rolling dude, it's great stuff. :lol:

Don't know exactly who this is directed at, however, since I kicked the hornet's nest earlier, let me reply. I am not bashing NDSU for beating Kansas. I am ridiculing you for labeling Kansas FB as a "powerhouse." The fatman has sung on that episode of KU history.

I am not one of the people counting "points left on the field," etc. I think the closest thing I said in reference to this year's game with Iowa State is something to the effect "ISU whipped our butts, and we handed them the belt." When we have beaten ISU, its a good day - as it is when NDSU, or any FCS team beats an FBS team. However, I have never labeled ISU as a FB powerhouse. That's laughable, as is KU. KU last won a FB conference title in 1968 (tied with OK).

Sean Hannity and Keith Olbermann think you need to tone down the hyperbole.
