I wish UNI had a 10-1 record......that would have given us a 3 seed instead of the useless 5

Before Bison fans bash the hell out of UND for being #21...look at the ORV, South Dakota 19, Southern Utah 12, and the other C0-Champion of the GWFC Cal Poly..3 VOTES!! South Dakota and Southern Utah's coaches or whatever from those schools vote in this poll. UND has nothing to do with this.

Just the coaches supporting the PFL's autobid request.... Heck, Albany makes the playoffs with an autobid and they cannot crack the top 25....

Supporting a request for an AQ by over inflating a team's accomplishments?

Albany would beat San Diego by 3 TDs this year.

Them being ranked is an absolute joke.

Yep, easy to say when you know it does not have to be backed up. There is not much difference between the top of the NEC and the PFL. I think Duquesne finished with more wins than Albany and came in second in the NEC. The Dukes were lucky to get by a fairly poor UD team this year. Drake and USD would both give Albany all they could handle.

I'm certainly not stupid enough to say that if we were about to play USD.

Wasn't so useless to EWU.

Montana won the Championship in 1995 and wasn't seeded.

Not that it really matters but I wonder why Nicholls State shows up as getting 4 votes. The Colonels finished 1-10 overall and 0-7 in conference play. Must be some kind of typo.

Bull s*** how stony brook beats Liberty and Liberty ranks higher than them... Really? wtf is wrong with the coaches

Well, North Dakota State beat UNI and UNI's ranked higher than them. Plus North Dakota State pistol whipped Minnesota. I got a chance to watch the game between UNI and North Dakota State and North Dakota State physically dominated. The only thing that made it close was UNI having a good, athletic, quarterback. At least that's what I think.

How people could vote UNI ahead of North Dakota State is totally beyond me. Based on what I saw North Dakota State is more physical and better on both lines of scrimmage. Not that UNI couldn't beat them. They could and almost did. But North Dakota State won the game for Pete's sake and looked like it should have won it by more.

But that's the way it goes.

Do you practice putting words in other people's mouths or does it just come naturally?

We have more important things to worry about.

Delaware is way too high, they aren't a playoff team.

Everyone was seeded 1-16 back then. You may have not been in the top 4 but you were seeded. FWIW, we were seeded 13th when we lost to you in the semis in 00.

Ridiculous. Playoffs are for real FCS teams.

Northern Iowa and NDSU are evenly matched. Feeling the home team is going to win those contests from here on out. It was a toss up, St. Wronge.

ODU is way too high, they don't have a first round bye.

The PFL should back up it's autobid request by scheduling tougher teams and beating them.

Pre season polls were as worthless as tits on a bull. And this one by the SID's is almost as worthless.

Shouldn't even have polls in FCS. That's what we have the playoffs for..
