2020 AGS FFA Poll - Week 4

[OhioHen]

We finally have some more FCS vs. FCS games to help us with the rankings. And we have two new teams (Southeast Missouri State and Southern Illinois) to add to the mix (although with no games played).

Rank all 17 schools using whatever criteria you wish. Remember, this is open to anyone who wishes to participate. Post your poll and enjoy the discussion. Thursday around noon Eastern is the deadline as usual.

[OhioHen]

This week's action created some movement up and down the list for me. The two added teams are slotted in based on where they would have been in a preseason poll of the 17.

1 - North Dakota State
2 - Central Arkansas
3 - Austin Peay
4 - Southeast Missouri State
5 - Southern Illinois
6 - Jacksonville State
7 - Chattanooga
8 - North Alabama
9 - Eastern Kentucky
10 - Missouri State
11 - The Citadel
12 - Houston Baptist
13 - Abilene Christian

Looking at this week’s schedule, couple of more FCS teams are playing for the first time and there are two inter conference games that will tell us a lot about fall ball teams.

I’m looking at straight up wins for FCS v FCS games and who wins against the oddsmaker betting lines for FCS-FBS match ups

UCA at NDSU. NDSU is a 22 point favorite.

Houston Baptist at Eastern Kentucky. Eastern Kentucky is favored by 3

Campbell at Wake Forest. Wake by 35

North Alabama at Liberty. Liberty by 30 1/2.

Jacksonville State at Florida State. Seminoles by 26 1/2.

ACU at Army. Army by 31

[SFA 93]

I'd take HBU over Eastern Kentucky.

[FUBeAR]

I'd take HBU over Eastern Kentucky.I would be inclined to agree, as the Huskies have, for the most part, hung with their 3 FBS opponents, but do they play D at all? They’re giving up 53 points / game. On the other hand, they’re putting up 34...still 3 score losses...on average, though their 2 point loss to TTU looks better after TTU took the Longhorns to OT this Saturday...after Texas killed UTEP 2 weeks before.

I think I’ll take the Over...whatever the number is!

[OhioHen]

I'd take HBU over Eastern Kentucky.

Why not participate in the poll?

[Daytripper]

HBU over EKU - The Huskies have more game experience under their belt this fall. They also have a very good QB.
NDSU over UCA - Central Arkansas will make it closer than the number, simply because they have game experience this fall. I see the Bizon winning by 13-17.
If there is a chance for an FCS upset over FBS, I think JSU has the best chance.

[SFA 93]

1 - North Dakota State 0-0 (King of the mountain until knocked off)
2 - Central Arkansas 2-1 (Close one with a really good UAB)
3 - Houston Baptist 0-3 (If they ever get a defense, watch out)
4 - Campbell 0-3 (Playing tough)
5 - Stephen F. Austin 0-3 (Also playing tough with only 56 players of a 130 player roster, many opted out of season and injuries)
6 - Abilene Christian 0-1 (SFA vs ACU later in the season)
7 - Missouri State 0-2
8 - Jacksonville State 0-0
9 - Eastern Kentucky 1-2
10 - Chattanooga 0-0
11 - Austin Peay 0-3
12 - North Alabama 0-0
13 - The Citadel 0-3
14 - Southeast Missouri State 0-0
15 - Southern Illinois 0-0
16 - Mercer 0-0
17 - Western Carolina 0-0
