I guess I'll spoil my top ten just so you guys have an idea of what I'm talking about.

1. UNI
2. NDSU
3. SHSU
4. J'Ville St
5.Coastal Carolina
6. Chatty
7. Charleston Southern
8. Richmond
9. SDSU

I thought teams already declaring for I-A weren't included in polls and rankings.

All too low. Everyone else too high.

Is the Shitadel still going to be a TO team what with their new coach and all?

I'm not exactly thrilled with that ranking, but I can't exactly argue much with it...except for the facts that EWU is way too low and Chuck South is way too high. That and if we have to include CCU at all, they should probably be #2....

How about South Carolina having 3 top 10 teams all within 100 miles of each other on the coast!!!

Best cluster of FCS football in the nation on SC coast!

Careful underestimating Charleston Southern. They're absolutely loaded. Lost almost no one from last year's team and have done excellent in recruiting.

I didn't say that Chuck South shouldn't be ranked at all. They should. They're just too high, IMO. Perhaps in the vicinity of 12 would be better....

I think the Sporting News has CSU somewhere around 13th-16th.

Yeah....top 8 may be a tad bit high. We are replacing our QB afterall.

But....doesn't matter much since we'll find out real damn quick in Fargo week 0 how legit CSU is or isn't as a top 10 caliber team.
