    I mean - I'm not going to argue for UNI to get a top 15 ranking or anything...but...UNI didn't get a single vote. OTOH the follow teams did

    FAMU
    Northwestern State
    Missouri State
    Chatty
    Idaho State
    UND
    Sac State
    Drake

    you apparently don't subscribe to their "representive democracy" approach to polls ??

    Towson finished 7-5 .. made playoff and lost at home to Duquesne 31-10 .. same Duquesne next loss to (10-3) SDSU 51-6 ... but Towson gets ranked 5th and SDSU gets 8th ?

    I realize picking 2 data points is suspect on surface .. except I could provide 100 more data points to question the logic of a 7-5 Towson team who got smoked in 1st round of playoffs last year by a team that got smoke even worse subsequently .... somehow leap frogging all the way to #5 ? Why because they made finals in 2013 ? Then didn't make playoffs again from 2014-17, including being under .500 for 3 of those 4 years. That is a pretty weak 5 year resume ... but 5th it is ... good poll !!!

    Top 10 is fine otherwise, though SDSU deserves much more love .. but Towson #5 .... WTF is that ???? After that it kind of falls apart .. 15-25 is a hot mess. And yes, UNI should be top 20 for sure, possibly top 15. I'm fine with ISUr being somewhere around top 15 to start season.

    I mean...UNI beat SDSU by 2 scores last year...in Brookings. And made the playoffs...and won a game in the playoffs....and returns like 65% of our starters...and gets our top WR back who missed last season with an ACL.

    But, since UNI needs to replace QB - just like SDSU does - apparently not even worth a vote.

    sheer laziness combined with regional bias .. despite all the information available via internet ..looking forward to MVFC conference poll, that will be far more insightful.

    Maybe it’s because you are also getting Farley back?
