[soweagle]

Without looking- maybe 1994

[TCisMYhero]

96?

[putter]

...close

[TTUEagles]

1995

[93henfan]

20. Hofstra Pride 9-2

1907?

Uncle Buck: I keed, I keed.

[GannonFan]

Should be easy - 1997 - Hens end up losing on a last second FG to McNeese in the semis, and the cowboys go on to lose a close title game to the Penguins. nova was #1 for most of the year, with a Finneran-led team, but fall to a crushing loss at home to YSU in the quarters.

3. Delaware Blue Hens 12-2
5. Villanova Wildcats 12-1
Based on those two it has to be 1997.

[TTUEagles]

Okay, it's not 1995 after all...I'm pretty sure that was the year Murray St. suddenly got great with Houston Nutt and a bunch of D-I transfers - I would think they would've been in the Top 25. (think they won the OVC???)

[blueballs]

1997

[McNeese72]

Any McNeese fan would say it was 1997.

Doc

[Silenoz]

Without reading other comments, 1997?

[putter]

1997 it is!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Go Lehigh TU Owl]

1997 just knew by Colgate and 'Nova.

[93henfan]

92? I seem to remember 8-4 just about being UD's record my senior year.

[sikolec]

1997...

Cal Poly 10-1...with Larry Walsh in '97

[Live4Griz]

1996.

[structgrizz]

1996 The griz lost to Marchall in the National Championship game (otherwise known as the Marchall Invitational)

[Go Lehigh TU Owl]

1996.

1995 or 1996, Dartmouth at 10-0 was my frame of reference.

[Uncle Buck]

1907?

Uncle Buck: I keed, I keed.

Those were the days xsmileyclapx

[mcveyrl]

I don't think it's 1996. We went to ASU that year for a playoff game and I don't think both teams would've ended up in the bottom like that (unless that was '95).

[HensRock]

My first guess was 1997, (before I read the comments)

Great idea by the way!

EDIT:
Oops - just saw you put a second one up. The second one is 1996.
Maybe start a new thread for each one.

[tribe_pride]

1996. We fell behind UNI big time in the Quarters, got back within a TD (not sure how close) and then a muffed punt (I won't say who did it) near the end of the game to end our chance of a comeback.

[Go...gate]

1997 (the first Top 25).

[putter]

First - 1997

Second - 1996 figured Griz fans would get that one easy..

[mcveyrl]

First - 1997

Second - 1996 figured Griz fans would get that one easy..

Yea, I looked it up after posting. I had the year wrong on the ASU/JMU game.

[UNIFanSince1983]

The first one obviously had to be between 97-2001 because UNI wasn't in it at all so musta been a Dunbar year.

The second one is 1996. As many people have already noted

2006 - I got it from NDSU and from JMU - that must have been the year JMU lost to YSU in the first round. Plus no YSU so they must be in the top 5. I like leaving the top teams out.

Yep 2000. I was at the semis at the Tub vs GSU.

[Go Lehigh TU Owl]

Yep 2000. I was at the semis at the Tub vs GSU.

I was at the Tub for the UD-Lehigh game, yikes!! That was a scary good UD and GSU team. Lehigh killed WIU the week before and met a similar fate in Newark,

[Shellin]

Yeah, definitely 2000. I think Jimmy Farris' touchdown catch in the semi's is my favorite Washington-Grizzly Stadium moment.

xmadx That stupid freckled-face ginger kid. xmadx

That was the year App won at Troy after losing to them in the regular season and won at WKU before going to Missoula.

To this day, App fans (including myself) are convinced that we would have beaten GaSo in the title game and GaSo fans were scared to play App again.

I think I can speak for most of the GSU folks in saying that we were rooting for App to win in Montana. I can also assure you that the GSU fans were not then, nor have they ever been, scared of App. Respect? Definitely! Scared? Not on your life.

If the rematch had been half as good as the game in October in Statesboro that year it would have been one of the best title games ever. As it was the GSU/Montana game was a helluva game... well, except for the weather.
