If you simply extrapolate the math of any current computer poll based on the 3 qtr that our starters have averaged we would be 1 or 2 in all of them. Not saying we should be or are but if you just blindly rely on computer rankings and don't watch film you might be surprised.

I don't have a big problem with this, because UCA does have an FBS skin on the wall. Also, our game with them was rather bizarre. I have seen posters on here, however, who have the Bears 4-7 notches above us, and that doesn't seem right at all.

I'd easily take that bet. In fact, I say we'd have a good chance against any team from #10 on down.

I understand some of the skepticism in this thread but I feel like we're being judged based on the ooc performance of our conference (MEAC) instead of our body of work over the last few years. Since 2013 we've beaten App State 24-21, lost to Coastal Carolina 30-31 in an exciting game and 2-0 vs Elon. In addition we just beat fbs Kent State a few weeks ago.

Before anyone suggests App and Elon were having down years let me submit that we only carried 30 scholarships when we beat them. Now, we are at full strength and it shows in our results. We might be one or two spots high in this poll but we are definitely a top 15 squad. This is a very good team with a possible 3 future NFL players, so we make no apologies for our ranking. Unfortunately because of the MEAC's tie in to the Celebration Bowl we likely won't get the chance to show it in the fcs playoffs.

Obviously enough to gain the ranking of #1. Kats had an FBS school on schedule this year that backed out late. BUT, none of these polls, including the one on this message board, means crap. Its October and much can change between now and the end of the season. Time will tell.

Funny thing...they haven't lost and gone into the locker room giving each other hive fives while saying, "Hey, we lost, but people will still think we are good because we beat a team that has lost 4 games on their schedule."

They've won...in fact, they've beaten the snot out of every team they've played and it hasn't been close. They get pissed when they win by only 21 because their 3rd string guys gave up a touchdown or two.

I mean, some people were saying Montana was worthy of a high seed if they won out. Oopps!

I guess winning counts to some teams if they win, but not others when they actually win.

And here is the last thing they did to earn a top spot...they looked at what they had last year and...wait for it...improved dramatically. There are a bunch of teams that have taken steps backwards from last year, but still get the sentimental vote or the associated vote. You probably would not know that because you haven't watched the games, so keep on voting. Keep on voting for a UNI team that has more holes than Swiss cheese....uhhh, because they are located in a geographical area that plays a brand of football that doesn't score as much as EWU, but EWU wasn't going to score 40 points (NO WAY) on the big, bad, Bison D AT FARGO.

Oh wait...UNI fixed their lousy QB situation? Hey, let's pretend that applies to their previous games and ignore their body of work and imagine that THIS is the team that played those previous games, so people can justify voting for them as a top 10 team.

That's how it works, right? xeyebrowx

It is amazing to see the circular logic flowing from come folks.

This guy here.

How do you know SHSU "improved dramatically"? Who have they played that showed they have improved dramatically? Is it the 26.57 ppg they are giving up? Is it the impressive win over Ok Panhandle? Maybe it was the impressive win over Houston Baptist. In reality all they have done is be good last year and then win every game in their cupcake feast so far. No team they have beat so far has a winning record currently. And they are still giving up 26.57ppg.

You can go on your anti-UNI rants all you want, but this has nothing to do with UNI and everything to do with the weak ass schedule your butt buddy KC Keeler put together.

You're not very good at this.....

I understand what you are saying Cluck. In a lot of minds it doesn't matter if you win or lose its who you played. That is why I made the comment about losing to Alabama would have made our SOS much better than winning against Oklahoma School of the Blind. Who cares about winning anymore?? Baylor always plays a crap OOC schedule as they have this year once again but aren't they in the top 10?? I am not comparing the SLC to the Big XII because neither school can control the conference schedule.
Who cares if Sam has been winning games by halftime and then the 2's and 3's give up 2nd half points?? They gave up how many to who?? Is the excuse.

How do you know SHSU "improved dramatically"?

If QB play alone isn't enough to show you that then you are not paying much attention. I know its against schools like Nicholls, but don't tell Georgia that they might just disagree on the competion level of those teams.

I disagree with this. SHSU appears to be a very good team (certainly top 10...I think anyways) but like others have said it is hard to gauge how good they are when they haven't played anyone in the conference (not their fault) and the OOC. They could very well be the best team in the country but it is hard to see that against sub par opponents. Plus McNeese was undefeated last year and was seeded 4th before losing in the second round.

UNIFanSince1983
October 25th, 2016, 03:48 PM
The only time this season we get to see what SHSU is truly made of is the last game against UCA. The only game on the schedule where a team has a record above .500 (unless McNeese pulls a win this weekend).

I am not saying they are not the best team, but they really have nothing to prove they are. They can't help the Southland is crap this year. They can't help the conference only allows 2 OOC games. They can help, though, that those two are OK Panhandle and Texas Southern. I prefer to see teams ranked at the top that have proven something. I would probably say they belong in the Top 5 because they have history, and haven't lost. I just can't see anyway you can defend them being #1 based on what they have done this year. Especially over teams like EWU or NDSU who have good wins and proven they are good again this year. Heck even JSU has proven more with a nice win over CCU and crushing the other terrible teams on their schedule.

I disagree with this. SHSU appears to be a very good team (certainly top 10...I think anyways) but like others have said it is hard to gauge how good they are when they haven't played anyone in the conference (not their fault) and the OOC. They could very well be the best team in the country but it is hard to see that against sub par opponents. Plus McNeese was undefeated last year and was seeded 4th before losing in the second round.

^^^This^^^^^^^

but look who defeated McNeese last year, Sammy, and Sammy has a bunch of returners on both side of the ball. I think Sammy is deserving of the number 1 ranking.

The only time this season we get to see what SHSU is truly made of is the last game against UCA. The only game on the schedule where a team has a record above .500 (unless McNeese pulls a win this weekend).

I am not saying they are not the best team, but they really have nothing to prove they are. They can't help the Southland is crap this year. They can't help the conference only allows 2 OOC games. They can help, though, that those two are OK Panhandle and Texas Southern. I prefer to see teams ranked at the top that have proven something. I would probably say they belong in the Top 5 because they have history, and haven't lost. I just can't see anyway you can defend them being #1 based on what they have done this year. Especially over teams like EWU or NDSU who have good wins and proven they are good again this year. Heck even JSU has proven more with a nice win over CCU and crushing the other terrible teams on their schedule.
Instead of ranting on here you should check the list of voters and ask them. I understand the SOS arguments but it's your representatives who are voting not us. We may or may not be the best. The good thing about FCS is that we end up settling it on the field.

Funny thing...they haven't lost and gone into the locker room giving each other hive fives while saying, "Hey, we lost, but people will still think we are good because we beat a team that has lost 4 games on their schedule."

They've won...in fact, they've beaten the snot out of every team they've played and it hasn't been close. They get pissed when they win by only 21 because their 3rd string guys gave up a touchdown or two.

I mean, some people were saying Montana was worthy of a high seed if they won out. Oopps!

I guess winning counts to some teams if they win, but not others when they actually win.

And here is the last thing they did to earn a top spot...they looked at what they had last year and...wait for it...improved dramatically. There are a bunch of teams that have taken steps backwards from last year, but still get the sentimental vote or the associated vote. You probably would not know that because you haven't watched the games, so keep on voting. Keep on voting for a UNI team that has more holes than Swiss cheese....uhhh, because they are located in a geographical area that plays a brand of football that doesn't score as much as EWU, but EWU wasn't going to score 40 points (NO WAY) on the big, bad, Bison D AT FARGO.

Oh wait...UNI fixed their lousy QB situation? Hey, let's pretend that applies to their previous games and ignore their body of work and imagine that THIS is the team that played those previous games, so people can justify voting for them as a top 10 team.

That's how it works, right? xeyebrowx

It is amazing to see the circular logic flowing from come folks.
Good god you are a butt hurt bitch.

You do realize that we scheduled New Mexico and they bailed in January and replaced is with A weaker South Dakota Coyotes right? You do know that in order to not get sued for backing out they paid for OPSU to travel to Huntsville right? Or are you speaking out of turn?

As soon as a team other that NDSU proves that can beat us more than once in the playoffs, No conference champ in the nation has any argument against shsu.

JSU steamrolled us. They were damn good last year. And we went into that game with a QB starting his 3rd or fourth D1 game....but no excuses. They owed us that one after we knocked them out the previous year at home, shut them out in the second half and had to watch all their seniors cry like girls at the post game presser. We got what we had coming to us.

I would think that a proud fan of the FCS brotherhood like yourself and others would JUMP at the chance to CRUSH and FBS team like NMU for ditching a playoff FCS team in order to play a weaker relative team. But instead you slam the Fellow FCS team that got dropped. That's just sad!

What would you have us do?

Change conferences? What else can we do? We would gladly switch to the MVFC but can't afford the travel. We would gladly join the OVC, but have not been invited.

Bottom line, we play who is in our conference. Sometimes they are good. Sometimes they are bad.

NDSU has learned to have a bigger buyout number so if a team wants out they are going to have to pay big time. Not that we've played a ton of FBS teams lately but it has definitely helped with that. The other one is SHSU needs to tell their conference to get rid of the mandatory 9 game conference schedule as it sure seems like it is hurting them. If they don't want to go with that, then SHSU needs to have two top notch non-conference games.

NDSU's non-conference schedule is probably their toughest ever and then add in a conference that is as tough as ever means that if we stay in one piece, we will definitely be ready for the playoffs. I know it's a race to 7, but if you want to get a seed it sure seems like a race to 9 and in my opinion those 9 should be a nice combination to difficult combination.

I'm really not trying to be an arse, but honestly..it's like people act like our AD doesn't try to do that every year. But none of the lower tier FBS texas teams will play us. and None of the Big 12 teams in texas will play us because they are ill trying to get Power 5 brownie points.

i know for a fact, our AD has tried to get UofH to play us every year for 5 years but got rejected.

i ask again, who would you like us to play? We keep trying. I can't explain how NDSU gets teams to agree to it. Maybe you guys don't need the money that we need for travel. But enough is enough with the "you don't schedule tough" talk. It's not true.

So call up some of your MVFC buddies and get us that conference invite and we will gladly join you! Buddy!

Again, it's not like we don't usually do that.

2011- New Mexico, Western Ill
2012- Baylor, Texas A&m
2013-Texas A&m, EWU
2014-LSU, EWU
2015- Nothing
2016- New Mexico (fail)


So we have done just that. You are really just talking about one year without a tough OOC opponent...that we could control anyway (2016)

But we have managed to make the semis each of the last two despite the weak OOC.And we lost to the better
team. No question. No team we could have schedules would have helped us vs NDSU or JSU last two years. So it's a mute point. the better team won.

I think we also have North Dakota in 18 and 19. Prior to the 9 game conf schedule we had some good ooc games. This years SLC is a step back in my opinion. SFA and McNeese aren't what they usually are and I thought ACU was going to b much better this year. Oh well glad there's a playoff. Going forward hopefully our SOS will be better.

Will do! Moving on. And for the record, I'm not defending our schedule or conference. Just stating that thoughts and opinions that we haven't tried to improve it are just foolish. And the opinion that our schedule will somehow hurt us in the playoffs is just as foolish.

We have lost to the better team in 4/5 playoffs. SELA beat us in a nail biter in 2013 that i contend we gave away.

Other than that, i don't feel that any scheduling issues were at the heart of why we keep losing to NDSU and JSU last year. It's a simple as bigger, stronger, faster, better. Nothing more.

Just for the sake of argument....

We had two finalists from 2015..NDSU and JSU.

If those teams returned almost every player from the previous year but upgraded the QB play in every category other than QB yards per carry,played the same SOS and teams that shsu did THIS season..

Would you say that they were overrated if they were 7-0?

Or would you say "we know that NDSU and JSU are Actually good because of the way they play the rest of the country when it comes playoff time so whoever they play in the meantime is not a true determining factor in who they actually are"

Me thinks most would say that EXACTLY. And to think, JSU just made its FIRST Semi final and FIRST natty appearance and have only a 1-1 record vs shsu in the playoffs. And looked FAR better last year vs the "average at best" OVC than they have THIS year ....YET...

...So many on here contend they are SO much better than SHSU...BASED ON WHAT?

Just for the sake of argument....

We had two finalists from 2015..NDSU and JSU.

If those teams returned almost every player from the previous year but upgraded the QB play in every category other than QB yards per carry,played the same SOS and teams that shsu did THIS season..

Would you say that they were overrated if they were 7-0?

Absolutely not. I'm just saying 1. griping about polls in the land of playoffs is dumb as hell. 2. Assuming shsu is "way overrated" when we have the SAME SOS as last year, yet improving in every category vs last year...and only lost to the eventual runner up...is equally dumb. Nothing more.

Facts are facts. We may very well run into a better team this year AGAIn...mathematically it's the most logical conclusion because EVERY TEAM but 1 ends its year that way.

So losing out to one of the top two is not a place any fan of any schools needs to be hanging its head about.

3. I challenge any other school not named NDSU to show me a more #1 Worthy playoff resume

Riiiiiiight. The old "The only good team you played is the one that beat you" trick.

The undefeated McNeese team had no pulse. The Big Sky champion SUU had no pulse. The Colgate team that upset JMU on the road had no pulse...i guess we should break up the FCS playoffs and just let the MVFC play a conference championship and call THEM the FCS national champion huh?

I mean... since there are so many crappy teams in multiple rounds of the playoffs that is...

Well you guys have been squeaking by every game this year so maybe y'all should be 10th or 15th if your new logic holds. Wins are wins in playoffs my friend. Again, your basically saying every team in the playoffs suck. Because the only team we lost too made the finals vs You guys.

So when does A. The MVFC break away from FCS playoffs and just play its own championship or B. The MVFC all
move up to the Big 10 together so you can start playing some real competition.

Why keep wasting your time with a nation of scrubs? Is it because you can beat them easily?

You know what that means don't you?

It Means your SOS actually sucks arse because you've only beaten another MVFC team for the title one time. Therefore your championships are tainted.

Whether you guys want to admit it or not, you haven't played anyone this season. You will play Central Arkansas at the end of the season. They look like a solid team.

I'll admit it. No issue there. But we did just handle Nicholls easily on the road. While not a traditional power, they gave a mediocre UGA team all it could handle in its opener, and that's not an easy task for most FCS teams. I know I know. ...UGA was overrated right? Right.

You know who else was overrated?? IOWA! They got beat by Something Called "Northwestern"?? OUCH...hence...no longer ranked.

UCA looks like a "Solid team"...Other than a crappy Arky State team and a mediocre McNeese team that we will play in a couple of weeks....SAME SCHEDULE!! So what makes them look "Solid". Was it the crappy performance they just had vs a Lamar team that was without Harrington or the starting QB? Is that SOLID to you?

The point is that we easily handled a team on the road that almost knocked off an SEC team at home. So while not a powerhouse, Nicholls is not the bottom feeder they have traditionally been. Fact.

The whole discussion was not is SHSU worthy of a seed, it was should they be number one. Those are two extremely different items. It's perfectly valid to question if they deserve #1. You won't hear many argue they don't deserve a seed. Hell, if you say they are #1 because they are undefeated, I ask...did Harvard deserve #1 late last year when they were undefeated?

I honestly think they're a good to great team with the potential to win it all but there's just no way to know for sure. That's why they should be ranked and probably seeded lower. It's not their fault but thems the brakes. They can still win it from the 5 spot.

And we played McNeese 2x at their place last year and UCA on the stripes. . .It's just how it all worked out this year. We would love to have SELA on our schedule and I'm sure they would love a shot at us this year. It's up to them to make the playoffs to make that happen...

I'll admit it. No issue there. But we did just handle Nicholls easily on the road. While not a traditional power, they gave a mediocre UGA team all it could handle in its opener, and that's not an easy task for most FCS teams. I know I know. ...UGA was overrated right? Right.

You know who else was overrated?? IOWA! They got beat by Something Called "Northwestern"?? OUCH...hence...no longer ranked.

UCA looks like a "Solid team"...Other than a crappy Arky State team and a mediocre McNeese team that we will play in a couple of weeks....SAME SCHEDULE!! So what makes them look "Solid". Was it the crappy performance they just had vs a Lamar team that was without Harrington or the starting QB? Is that SOLID to you?

BTW, SHSU destroyed that Lamar team sir. And that was at full strength.

The only time this season we get to see what SHSU is truly made of is the last game against UCA. The only game on the schedule where a team has a record above .500 (unless McNeese pulls a win this weekend).

I am not saying they are not the best team, but they really have nothing to prove they are. They can't help the Southland is crap this year. They can't help the conference only allows 2 OOC games. They can help, though, that those two are OK Panhandle and Texas Southern. I prefer to see teams ranked at the top that have proven something. I would probably say they belong in the Top 5 because they have history, and haven't lost. I just can't see anyway you can defend them being #1 based on what they have done this year. Especially over teams like EWU or NDSU who have good wins and proven they are good again this year. Heck even JSU has proven more with a nice win over CCU and crushing the other terrible teams on their schedule.

Again, listen real close, the OK-Panhandle St game happened because New Mexico backed out of game late so they had to scramble to find a game. And there isn't anything wrong with playing a SWAC team, but I would prefer not too. Most of the time they refuse to play SHSU anyway because they get pounded every time.

If we are playing such an easy schedule , and have accomplished nothing why does home seeding for the Kats matter so much?

I would think such accomplished teams as those in the top 5-10 would relish the opportunity to march into an opposing teams house and make a statement.

My point is "How can you state that a team is overrated that consistently beats other conferences in the playoffs every year, who the experts predicted would do almost EXACTLY what they are doing right now based on what they had coming back and the upgrades all around..."

This is not a surprise shsu team...everyone had them on top of the slc, everyone had them high in the rankings and the team is exceeding even those expectations. Everyone knew the schedule would be weak, but NO ONE expected this level of domination.

If shsu had come out of no where, your logic would make sense, as it is, it's just stubbornness.


Then you guys say" well it's all about this year"...then follow it up with "62-10(last year btw)"...and the grand finale..."NDSU is the number 1 based on 5 rings" (ignoring the near losses at home due to two teams that both CHOKED in the moment...led to their eventual dismantling by SDSU?

We're just trying to help you understand how the FCS football works.

Please explain this one to me? Or at least your opinion of how it does.... I always thought it was about playing a team and beating them, then doing the same the next game and so on. If you keep doing that you will find yourself in the last 4 standing, then the last 2. Maybe this is the year we finally win that last game? That remains to be seen

I do to, for now. Once EWU loses to either Montana or Cal Poly that will put NDSU in the #1 spot unless that Northern Iowa team I hear about being so good because they lose games actually wins one. If that happens I may just be a homer....

This guy here.

How do you know SHSU "improved dramatically"? Who have they played that showed they have improved dramatically? Is it the 26.57 ppg they are giving up? Is it the impressive win over Ok Panhandle? Maybe it was the impressive win over Houston Baptist. In reality all they have done is be good last year and then win every game in their cupcake feast so far. No team they have beat so far has a winning record currently. And they are still giving up 26.57ppg.

You can go on your anti-UNI rants all you want, but this has nothing to do with UNI and everything to do with the weak ass schedule your butt buddy KC Keeler put together.

How do I know SHSU has improved dramatically? xeyebrowx

You can't be serious with that question, can you? I've watched their games and the skill set of the players. You know...instead of looking at a stat sheet, Mr. 26.57ppg. xlolx

Apparently, you are not able to judge talent, but you'll stake your reputation as a voter on a couple stats? xeyebrowx Someone thought your starting QB was the MAN...while those of us who actually watched your games knew his decision making process and lack of consistency left him severely flawed. Apparently, your coaches finally figured that out. xdrunkyx Now let's see if they figure out the rest of the problems with your team.

Just to put this bull****tery in perspective. The Southland is the 9th strongest FCS conference. This would be like putting an undefeated App State at number 1 in the AP poll. Heads would roll, but we can do this in the FCS and no one bats an eye.

The only time this season we get to see what SHSU is truly made of is the last game against UCA. The only game on the schedule where a team has a record above .500 (unless McNeese pulls a win this weekend).

I am not saying they are not the best team, but they really have nothing to prove they are. They can't help the Southland is crap this year. They can't help the conference only allows 2 OOC games. They can help, though, that those two are OK Panhandle and Texas Southern. I prefer to see teams ranked at the top that have proven something. I would probably say they belong in the Top 5 because they have history, and haven't lost. I just can't see anyway you can defend them being #1 based on what they have done this year. Especially over teams like EWU or NDSU who have good wins and proven they are good again this year. Heck even JSU has proven more with a nice win over CCU and crushing the other terrible teams on their schedule.


Crushing?

WTF are you looking at? They didn't score an offensive touchdown in their last game against a 2-5 EKU team.

I just realized that not only is the schedule weak, but they get McNeese and UCA at home this year and avoid SELA (who's playing better of late). Christ even their conference schedule is easy. xlolx

I honestly think they're a good to great team with the potential to win it all but there's just no way to know for sure. That's why they should be ranked and probably seeded lower. It's not their fault but thems the brakes. They can still win it from the 5 spot.


Nobody from the Big Fluffy has done anything of note his year.

North Dakota, first place in your conference, lost to Stony Brook...a terrible one dimensional team. and they only scvored 9 points. How is that possible? Cripes, UD scored 3 and blew several other points. But yeah, let's wink and tell everyone that they are a tough team.

EWU? Beat another overrated Pac10 team. Big deal...the Pac10 always disappears during playoff time, and have proven time and time again that they can get beat by average Big Fluffy teams. The game in Binsonland was impressive from one side of the ball, but the Bison can't play defense these days. SDSU walked up and down the field on them and the only thing that kept NDSU alive was their QB scrambles and the SDSU DL was atrocious...in fact their whole D was pathetic until they changed their tactics later in the game. Still, we can give some credit to the Eagles for at least having a solid O. Bonus points for demonstrating that NDSU isn't going to win the chipper this year. Top 5 team, but with no D, you can't take them seriously. Pray for good weather in November and December. You won't make it to January.

Weber? Please...

Cal Poly? Another TO team that will fold against a good D.

Northern AZ? C'mon, they lost to a middling W. Ill school. Oh...but they played, and lost, to an MVFC team, so the Jacks should be ranked in the top 10.

Montana? They managed 206 TOTAL yards against UNI, right? Offensive firepower. I watched that game...pathetic showing by both teams in a game no one wanted to win. Both teams waaaaaaaaaay overrated.

The rest of the Big Fluffy? Not worth mentioning.

Are the Eagles good? yeah, but can they be ranked in the top 3? Not really. No D.

If we are playing such an easy schedule , and have accomplished nothing why does home seeding for the Kats matter so much?

I would think such accomplished teams as those in the top 5-10 would relish the opportunity to march into an opposing teams house and make a statement.

No, FCS football is about losing, but saying a loss counts more than a win. xnodx

It is also about your conference mates, specifically a conference champ, from the so called tough conference, losing to a 2nd place team from another conference, and then saying that the 2nd place team that won comes from a lousy conference.

It is even further about saying that a team that beats other conference champions, then loses to a non-conference champion, is a lousy team and their loss proves that the non-conference champ that beat other conference champs was overrated.
