I really dont take a lot of stock in these rankings. It has UNI at #30 in the nation. I love my Cats, but I dont honestly think that we have the 30th best college football team in the nation right now.

[DOME]

Ha, Southern Utah's schedule is the 3rd toughest by this poll. 114 in the nation beat only by Western Carolina, Elon, and App St. Go Thunderbirds!

Maybe not #30 but we aren't too far off that. Especially with all of the upsets and randomness in the FBS these days...I bet we'd hold our own in the Big 10 this year, though thats not saying too much.

The Sagarin's aren't really accurate to me until the regular season is over...which should be obvious because its based on game data.

[skinny_uncle]

The Sagarin looks pretty good to me, although I don't think the Griz fans are going to like it much.
:D

[appfan2008]

I have never like these rankings... but dang if they asu at 4th that works for me... that michigan win is looking better all the time as they are looking better and better all the time

I think SOS is a factor. Their top 5 all had FBS wins this year.

[downbythebeach]

sagarin has some of the best computer rankings IMO...but i guess thats why USA today uses him

[Hansel]

Dayton would be second in the Big Sky... sounds about right ;)

[UNCBears2010]

We made the top 100!

[grizband]

We made the top 100!

Cue the music:

"Oh, we're movin' on up...."

Congrats to the Bears on their recent games. Hopefully this is a sign of things to come in future seasons.

[DSUHornet]

these rankings are very VERY, Dangerously suspect
