    Montana ranked ahead of Lehigh. Yeah, sure, that makes sense.

    Hard for me to justify #1 votes for JMU, App and YSU. Also see GaState getting more votes than teams like Furman, Albany and Richmond....just becoming a transitional FBS doesn't make you any better the following year as the additional scholarships haven't fully kicked in. Who exactly have they beaten of note in their brief existance??

    Not bad, nothing too egregious at this point. However, looking at some of the ORV schools with 10 points or less really makes you wonder about the intelligence of some of the voters who put those schools in their top 25.

    Me too. I have no problem with Phil Steele's #2 ranking for JMU because that's how he's predicting the FCS final standings. Who knows what will happen then? But for this poll/ranking, I don't think JMU or ASU should be getting #1 votes. I think it's unbelievable that so many people are not ranking NDSU #1 this year. Unless the national champ loses A LOT, they usually start out #1 the next season in my book. Everyone has different opinions on that, but that's how I do it. EWU earned a #1 preseason ranking last year. Who would have guessed they'd missed the playoffs? No one predicted that. How could they have known?

    Ga St got votes? What the heck, they lost to Div 2 teams, and will probably win 1-3 games. BS.

    How did Cal Poly not even get a vote? That doesn't add up to me because if Poly played a team like Prairie View A&M they would blow them out.

    Also, Chattanooga did not make top 25, mistake IMO.
