Although people think as a whole the Gateway is the strongest conference in the FCS Ranks; I don't think enough people believe the teams in it are capable of winning a National Title; which I think is crazy!!!!

Northern Iowa and Youngstown State are two teams with a great shot at winning it all!!!

i know this is REALLY DARK horse, but I think Albany has a shot (at least best shot from the NEC), but we will find out when they play the Griz

If the Griz don't win it, I'd love to see Cal Poly or NDSU win it.. even though NDSU isn't quite eligible yet.

I haven't followed the Glanville hiring very closely, will PSU be using the Run n' Shoot offense?

I wish Weber State played Portland State at Ogden this year. If they did, I would drive over for the game. They do play at Idaho State this year, but it is the same date the Bison play the Minnesota Gophers......so I will be watching that one in Minneapolis.

I guess I can't really say about a true dark horse because I don't think there will be one. Even still, I'm going with UNH pulling the "upset" over Montana in the finals! Santos pulls a "Vince Young" against a superior team. :o

I had to pick them because, no pun intended, Jerry Kill would kill me if I didn't pick them. ;)

You've gotta love a football team with a coach named Kill.

The University of Delaware Fightin' Blue Hens will shock everyone and take the 2007 title. :shock: :D

UD will win their conference, get a seed, and home field will take them up to the semis. At App State, the Mountaineer fans will see their team fall under a barrage of Flacco bullets and Cuff rumbles as UD "Talleys" the sacks and big hits. Montana will whither and fall in the championship as they resign themselves to an 0-2 record against the Hens. 8-)

Portland State is my pick this year.

Along with Montana State......Too many people are over looking the Cats and they always thrive under the radar.
