Wowzers. I see what everyone was saying about having a hard time filling out anything after the top 10. Not very often a team (YSU) can lose a game and move from #15 up to #14, but when 3 teams ahead of you suffer bad losses and only 1 team below you has a good win (Nicholls), there's not much else you can do.

So someone is voting the Bison at # 5 ?

Could be voting them #6 also. The 2 voters who voted for JMU and SDSU could have had the Bison #2 & #6, #3 & #5 or they both voted NDSU #4. All 3 combinations yield 44 points.

6 actually.

[dewey]

6 actually.

Interesting. I would love to have that person post why they feel there are 5 other teams in the FCS better than NDSU.

NDSU's good wins (current rankings below).
#27 UND (whooping)
@#18 Delaware (whooping)
#29 UC Davis (close game)
#15 Illinois State (whooping)

I would just like to hear the rationale.

Well, I've been listening to the rationale and although I don't agree with it I can't say it is strictly wrong either but I fully believe it to be incorrect. Basically, NDSU did not start in the T25 on their ballot to begin with due to massive losses in personnel, coaches, etc.

So basically NDSU is working their way up after not starting on the ballot.

Even with that very odd rationale, any other team not named NDSU would be the consensus #1 if they did what we have done this year

Wow...I can understand moving them down a bit to start off with...but like low top-10 maybe, not all the way out of the top 25. I wouldn't have done that, but I could maybe understand it.

Wow. Not even in the top 25....crazy talk. If it were not in the top 10 with all of the personnel (players and coaches) I could see that but not even the top 25.

I think on any given year there may be 10 teams that have a legit shot at the national championship.

Thanks for the explanation Ursus.
