I am not a huge fan of how this poll turned out but then again it is only preseason and Phil had NDSU ranked number 20 last year so who knows. Also, I feel that we should be somewhere in the 30 - 40 range, but at this point I think I am liking the underdog type status; should motivate the guys a bit.

while i would probably have UND in the mid thirties or so, I can see them being unranked so i'm not really bothered by it. Cal Poly i think is a pretty poor exclusion, consdering I think they have an outside shot at winning the bigsky and pulling out a seed.

certainly someone else from the big sky is a top 40 team. I think the league is a little top-heavy, but not that bad. Also, if he is as wide off on NDSU this year as last year, I think they might be pretty good.

Portland St. should be on that list in my opinion.

Let's be honest whoever did this poll is on crack. It deserves no respect. He throws names in a hat. Holy Cross doesn't even give scholarships and was one game above .500 playing in the non schooly patriot league.
Where's Northern Colorado?
*patriot league voted to start giving scholarships this year.

Are they that good?
