I chuckled that in North Dakota 0% had voted for Georgia Southern.

Georgia Southern voted last in 28 out of 52 Districts. Can we play both the "We Get No Respect" and "But 'Bama" Cards here?

You're playing the #1 Seed, of course you are going to get the primetime game. You're just guilty by association. Try again.

Isn't your AD some big shot with the NCAA?? Don't give me the "ESPN controls the game times and channel and not the NCAA" excuse either.

I would expect you to be winning, considering you dominated UNI last week. That's the difference, you've had the exposure. I'm sure if DII Pitt State Gorillas were on that poll in place of UM, they'd be winning the poll too. My point stands that anybody outside of Montana and the surrounding states has no idea what they talking are about.

I could have revisionist history too. Watch this:

National Championships since 1985: GSU - 6, UM - 2
Semi-finals Appearances since 2010: GSU - 2, UM - 1
Outright Conference Championships since 2011: GSU - 1, UM - 0
2011 All-Americans: GSU - 5, UM - 1

I hope you take care of business tonight. I would love to play a team that always finds a way to choke in championship games (if we beat NDSU who has a much better team than you).

I seriously doubt you will. Another semifinal choke job for GSU.

It is a cool poll in that it shows how there are still four very legit contenders in the mix.

That said, obviously Montana is the best team.
Fear the Griz! :)

Then maybe you could remind me when being a 4 seed became greater than being a 1, 2, or 3?

I seem to remember a 5 seed winning it all last year. Guess they should have given it to App State instead.

4 for GSU if you assume at least some of the players are 21. '89 & '90 too.
