So Appy State goes down...

Post by MrTitleist »

What's the polls going to look like this week? Will NDSU move up after creaming a 1-A? Will Appy fall lower than 5? What's going to happen with the madness this weekend?

App comes down to 6 and Wofford goes up to 10

#1 They lost and the game was not as close as the final score.
#2 Everyone around them in my poll won.

by that logic, if 2-25 won then asu would drop to 25

thats the dumbest thing i've ever heard

Shouldn't the real question for App. State at this point be who stands in Wofford's way of winning the SoCon? It's hard to be a 1 or 2 seed in the playoffs if you don't win your conference. There's a lot of football still to be played, but I'm guessing App. State was an early final exam for the Terriers.
On the flipside, should these two teams make it into the playoffs and end up in a rematch in the quarterfinals, that would be epic.

It is feasibly possible, though unlikely, that both teams win out, Wofford wins the SoCon, but App finishes higher in the polls. If this happens, its possible that App could receive a higher "seed" or vice versa, but who knows. My guess is that Wofford will have atleast one bad game in conference, much like their performance at NC State

I may be remembering wrong, but I think this has happened several times in the last 5 or 6 years in the Big Sky. I believe MSU, EWU and NAU have all shared the conference title with UM and, having beat the griz to win the tie-breaker, went on to the auto-bid. I think in each case the griz have been ranked higher after losing to a conference foe similar to the Wofford/ASU situation now.
