I guess beating an FBS team gets you a token vote while I'm not sure who would really have ANY agruement for including 26-30 on their ballots...

Better than the media poll. A couple teams a little high, (CCU, McNeese, UM, UTC) but nothing outrageous.

7 MVFC teams, nice.

[RabidRabbit]

IMHO, YSU will get exposed when they play in the MVFC. Playing nothing but cupcakes for OOC makes little sense for preparing for the MVFC grind. Disappointed that the Ind St. Sycs aren't getting a better cred for their 2-1, including FBS win.

This is my hope as they head to Springfield on October 4th. We've been battle tested and now have 2 weeks to rest up.

Going to be another 18k strong in Springfield waiting for the Penguins.

How in the blue **** is Sam getting any sort of votes?

Apparently they get credit for only getting beat by LSU by 56 (?), 3 scores at home to a good D2 team and lost by about 25 to EWU.

Coastal Carolina at #3 seems really high to me especially when teams like Villanova are below them.
