Ursus lays down HIS top 25 for this week

[Ursus A. Horribilis]

Why thank you BH, you are truly a learned man. Now let's see if dback has any sense this week.

[dbackjon]

Your poll is ok, I've seen better ones.

Weber and NAU too low.

[grizzaholic]

Ok fellas this is what I have for this week. Dback, tell me what I have wrong this week. The rest of you can take a couple of shots as well.

1. James Madison
2. Appalachian St.
3. Cal Poly
4. Wofford
5. Elon
6. Villanova
7. Northern Iowa
8. Richmond
9. Montana
10. McNeese St.
11. Southern Illinois
12. New Hampshire
13. Central Arkansas
14. Western Illinois
15. Weber St.
16. Furman
17. Northern Arizona
18. Massachusetts
19. William & Mary
20. Hampton
21. Tennessee St.
22. Liberty
23. Jacksonville St.
24. Lafayette
25. Harvard

Richmond too high, Weber St. a little low. Other than that it looks fairly good. BUt then again, I am no expert on this.

It's interesting that a UNI team is ranked so many spots ahead of a Saluki team that beat them in almost everyone's poll.

And what has UNH done this year. For the life of me, I cannot remember.

They beat Army.

They beat Army.

Ok. Anything else? Is ARMY even any good this year?

[dbackjon]

Army is 2-5. Losses to Temple by 28, UNH by 18, Akron by 19, Texas A&M by 4, and buffalo by 3.

Wins over 2-4 Tulane, and 2-6 Eastern Michigan (one win was over Indiana State)

[grizzaholic]

So am I right in thinking that UNH is ranked to high?

[Ursus A. Horribilis]

No you are wrong because you are trying to go against me.

[grizzaholic]

No you are wrong because you are trying to go against me.

There was a meeting held and the board said I was right. so tell me. WTF has UNH done this year to have them ranked so high?

No you didn't have a meeting because I am the board on this one and I told you that you are wrong. And as far as what they've done that's easy man, they've won some games and shit.

Weber, W&M, Villanova, UNI climb; Richmond, Montana, Cal Poly, and Mass drop; Leathernecks and UTM, will either climb rapidly or get put out to pasture - next two games will make or break them; GSU replaces S.Carolina on strength.
Dback's right about Weber...watched the game...other than some safety blitzes and a few small breaches on OL (which isn't difficult consider NAU's DL), Weber showed their stuff. Passing, speed, athleticism, toughness, execution...it was all there. JMU's still got the advantage, but teams #2-5 can take it if the wind blows their direction.

Sorry, gents. No favorites here, just business.

Glad you got to watch it. It is being replayed tomorrow, taping it to rewatch some areas.

replayed on bigskytv? That would be cool because I was very drunk after the Griz game and well...didn't catch it.

Got to see it and the PSU game on BigSkyTV streaming. Either Comcast or their ISP belched just after halftime, lost feed for about 20min., but saw the rest of the game. Weber's D was letting Williams find the seam, which they need to fix, but otherwise, they were very impressive from both sides of the ball. Great camera work and broadcast from the NAU site crew though. Very impressed. Many thanks to NAU and BigSkyTV for their free feed.

BTW, tried to get the Poly/SUU feed...Cal Poly uses CBS sportsnews...advertised as one time $9.95 charge (or option to $19.95/mos or $195/annual auto-recurring debit charge), but every time you selected the $9.95 option and went to pay, it switched to the $195/recurring annual option...no way to override it. Out of curiosity, before posting the charge, I checked their instructions for "cancelling" the recurring debit...the "Cancel" link attempted to load a Windows media app. Chose not to sign up...seems suspiciously like a sneaky way to screw people...CBS sportsnews...who'd a thunk...

So, fv(k CBS sportsnews...I listened to it via a radio station for free. Glad I did though...learned a lot about Poly this year.

Sheeit! I wonder if someone will stream it on channelsurfing? I kinda doubt it but I'm gonna check tomorrow anyway. If you want you can turn it into a torrent and let me know and I'll grab it from you.

I was FN with you dback. Although I'm sure it's probably not that tough to turn a digitally captured file into a torrent I wouldn't know how to do it either.

I am sure it isn't - maybe I can get one of my 21-25 year olds to do it..

Good Top 25, Ursus...

jon, don't feel lonely...I had to google "torrent"

If you understand this, you're ahead of me...

Once again Ursus puts together a fairly unbiased top 25.

[Ursus A. Horribilis]

Thanks Grizza and others. Col. torrents are one of the coolest things I've ever used. If you had a UMass game converted to a file on your computer and you upped it as a file for others to download the a few people that want it would DL it from you and it comes in as little tiny pieces and that way the 2nd 3rd and 4th....all have different little chunks and they start to trade among each other as well. The program reassembles the file while the pieces are coming in but it can come in in whatever form so it doesn't matter. Once 4 or 5 people have completely downloaded your file and they start seeding it as well you could DL a the full game in about 5-15 minutes depending on how much throttle (kbps) you want it to DL at. There are a lot of unknown bands that put their music up for free DL's to see what people think of it.
