Granted, Cowboys will be better ... but not that much.

I would think you would be happy McNeese is overrated. It means, since you believe Southeastern will slaughter McNeese again, that it could only make Southeastern's team look really good after beating McNeese.

Time will tell where teams should have been ranked. Time will tell if McNeese is/was overrated.

Most of us at McNeese would rather be rated much lower or not at all. We only care about improving and playing McNeese football. For you see, McNeese knows what polls and ratings are for and that is for idle minds to get worked up about.

Understatement of the century. McNeese fans are the only bigger sandbaggers than Delaware fans. Constantly begging to be ranked lower. xlolx :nod: :bow:

I would make two changes to this poll - move UNI up two spots and move YSU out of the top 10.

App St was #1

See the poll worked itself out like it always does but heading into the playoffs Hampton was top 5, Richmond was underrated and App was underrated. Polls really mean nothing until playoff time. It seems like someone always gets exploited in the playoffs and someone else always comes out of nowhere.

Yes, they sure made those that had them outside of their top 10 look pretty good, but some of those same voters probably had UNI barely in the top 10. Hindsight is 20/20. BTW, I don't rank by record.

Yeah and they deserved to be. See unlike you and I some people will always vote a 10-1 team over a 9-2 team and that is not always right.
