Looks good to me. Bet Lakes spit MWILLBABY's c*** out of his mouth when he saw it though.

Come on, you honestly think every time a team wins the championship they should be #1 the next year automatically? NDSU lost some big contributions off last year's squad, especially compared to what GSU and SHSU return. This isn't DII. Even Alabama isn't going to be the top team in the next FBS preseason poll. I should like to think starting top 3 is plenty good enough to start off the season. I don't think many of their reasonable fans are screaming about "no respect."
And besides, who wins from the top spot in the preseason anyway?

My opinion is NDSU didn't get respect being voted #3 in the poll. I didn't day they should be #1, did I? I know SHSU is bring a lot back but their schedule is going to be a lot tougher this year and they have 3 home games. Their best shot is winning their conference. I do think that NDSU should be ahead of GSU in the first poll. NDSU's defense will be solid once again this year and that should have them in the first two spots.

The obvious counter is that being voted #3 is respectful. What's "respect" in your mind, then?

No isht, I'm surprised they arent in the top 5
Don't worry though, they'll sexually assault, drunken drive, or batter their way to #1 I'm sure.

Hey man, don't knock PAM. Due to California's restrive legislation on defending yourself or your property, we here in California have found new uses for PAM...it's the only legal propellant we can use to defend ourselves against the welfare queens and thugs that run this State.

Sorry man, but UM's current state of affairs would hardly have anyone envious. I mean who wouldn't want Fed's and NCAA investigating their school? You're not God's gift to college football.

Yes, I think it's a shitty situation, and no, I don't think we're God's gift to college football. Just think it's funny that you you resort to schadenfreude because your own team is a joke.

Cleaning up the program's off the field problems apparently is, which is why the president sacked an otherwise successful AD and head coach.

That's great but do you really think this was just an isolated incident? Or do you think that culture has been allowed way too long?
