[Go Lehigh TU Owl]

Basically the same as TSN...

[NHwildEcat]

Wow, UNH drops 6 spots...that is a big drop for a team that lost to a Big 10 team...damn.

[FargoBison]

What does Illinois State need to do to get some love???

[HensRock]

I dropped UNH right out of my AGS Top 25. I watched the game. UNH completely outclassed by a bad Big 10 team.
I was shocked that a Sean McDonough-coached team could look so lost.

[HensRock]

+1

And what does Montana State have to do to get some anti-love?

That seems like a bit much. UNH was outclassed, but any given saturday dude. Should we really expect UNH to compete in the BigTen?

[frozennorth]

Wofford stomps d2 team and jumps into top10. Ewu beats idaho and nearly wsu and gets jumped.

[frozennorth]

No, but noone really expects minnesota to compete in the big10 either.

UNH deserved to drop, but not out of the top 25. I'd be curious to see teams 20-25 in your poll.

[FargoBison]

+1

And what does Montana State have to do to get some anti-love?

Agreed MSU gets a lot of love but they have done very little outside of being a great Big Sky team. Their last two trips to the playoffs have been very underwhelming, they do have a ton of potential but it seems like voters are ranking them highly based on that and not what they have done.

UNH got deflated early and then some tough TOs did them in but really thought a less negative start could have went a long way to making that a game...

Thnk Lehigh is getting too much love right now. Win over Monmouth looks a little better after they beat Bryant handily, but not sure how a win over CCSU moves them up. Feel for IL state, they should have moved more. TSN better in regard to those 2.

Monmouth beat URI, not Bryant.

Lehigh has been solid but far from spectacular. Based on what others have done in that 10-20 range I think their ranking is more than justified. UD and Lehigh have performed pretty similar imo. ILL St. should absolutely be ahead of the Hawks though.

[unigriff]

play someone worth a damn.
Same for NDSU.

[FargoBison]

play someone worth a damn.
Same for NDSU.

Both just beat FBS teams and they didn't just beat them but physically manhandled them.

[achrist70]

Colorado State=Nice Win
Eastern Michigan= Wouldn't finish top 8 in MVFC

[frozennorth]

Colorado State=Nice Win

i wouldn't go that far. I think they would be just outside the top-4 along with isu-b and sdsu.

[DSUrocks07]

Future member of the MVFC? xchinscratchx

They don't meet our 7k actual butts in seats attendance minimum. *


* You should know that no such minimum exists

[MTfan4life]

A Big 10 team that had only 2 wins in its previous 5 games against FCS opponents.

[Twentysix]

44-7. The gophers...scored...44 points... and they were being nice about not running up the score.

Anyone who actually watched the game saw UNH look pathetic.
