Screw this thread. You're just trolling us now.

Gotta be the 2015 UND Fawkers.

They got robbed by the committee but it made them even better and more determined then ever to lift weights all off season and came back to dominate the Big Sky in 2016! They left no doubt! Day by day! Bubbles ball!

1990 EKU team was undefeated and rolling until OB Lorenzo Fields got his leg broken against Tennessee State. Team wasn't the same after that and lost to Furman in the first round.

2008 JMU. Obviously a homer pick but still with merit. Offense was awesome, defense was not as strong (23pts a game/ 307 yds per game) bend but don't break type.

Held the #1 ranking for 9 weeks. Beat the #1,3,5,6,7 and 12th ranked teams during the season. Lost our Superman QB in semifinal loss to Montana (27-35). Also lost 4 fumbles in that game after only losing 11 in the previous 13 games. Had a regular season victory on the road to eventual National Champ Richmond. Also defeated 3 time defending champ and #1 ranked App St. Only other loss was to I-A Duke. Really the only thing that ever stopped our offense that year was our Coach.

Sounds better than 10 turnovers...

[Go Lehigh TU owl]

Griz 1996 (I explained this in the other thread)
Georgia Southern 1998 (our linebacker unit was destroyed by injuries for that game, and 7 largely unforced turnovers doomed us, or else that team is 15-0)

GSU was easily the best team in 1998.

Lehigh had Umass dead to rights in the quarterfinals and let them off the hook with panicked play calling. Lehigh had 1st and goal from the UMass 8 yard line with a minute left down 27-21 and completely forgot about their stub RB on all 4 plays. I will say, Marcel Shipp was a beast for UMass.

That was Lehigh's best chance to make it to the title game. The 2011 team could have if they avoided a trip Fargo but the '98 team was just nasty. They would have beaten Northwestern State in the semi's and faced GSU for the title.

I agree with this pick, JMU was scary good that year.
