"The Dukes received 23 out of a possible 27 first-place votes ..."

wow ndsu sure is getting more love here than in the ags poll

[WrenFGun]

'Nova moves up three spots for beating Richmond? EIU? Really?

[93henfan]

That poll is not giving Furman sufficient love.

"Two head coaches from each of the 14 FCS conferences participate in the voting."

preseason 24 voters
then 28
then 27

sheesh this is a wacky poll

'Nova moves up three spots for beating Richmond? EIU? Really?

Seriously, three spots for beating the number 2 in their poll.

[WrenFGun]

Yes, Nova should be much, much higher. Possibly the most underrated team in the country.

[UNIFanSince1983]

Yes Nova beat Richmond and maybe should have moved up a few more, but if they are really that good they will keep winning and thus will keep moving up the polls so I wouldn't really complain about it right now.

Jax State 23
3 TDs & a Safety



EIU 10
EIU did not score a Offensive TD. They had a blocked punt for a TD and a field goal

[BisonBacker]

At this point NDSU until some quality wins is overrated

[brownbear]

448 points in the TSN poll, 7 points in the AGS poll, and zero votes in the coaches poll?

How does Harvard get a vote and we don't?

1. That's 7 votes in the AGS poll. Points only apply to those in top 25 (OVR is actual votes, hence the 7).

2. Don't try to rationalize the SID (Coaches) Poll. Its a joke.

[DSUHornet]

nice to have two meac teams mentioned

[UNHWildCats]

maybe one of the coaches voted for Montana state or GSU?

Not necessarily overrated - just not yet convincingly proven.xthumbsupx

Rough conference schedule on the way to see if they're right...
