Just like UNI last year when Massey or Sagarin (I forget which ones) had them extremely high because of their SOS (ONLY) since their only win up to midseason was a DII team. Rankings and polls don't matter its what you do in the playoffs. Quote
UNDBIZ Posted September 10, 2013 Posted September 10, 2013 Just like UNI last year when Massey or Sagarin (I forget which ones) had them extremely high because of their SOS (ONLY) since their only win up to midseason was a DII team. Rankings and polls don't matter its what you do in the playoffs. At least UNI had lost to FBS or ranked FCS teams at that point. Villanova got beat by a nobody. Quote
dmksioux Posted September 10, 2013 Posted September 10, 2013 At least UNI had lost to FBS or ranked FCS teams at that point. Villanova got beat by a nobody. One of Villanova's losses came to BC, an FBS school EDIT: Villanova actually led at half time 14-7 before losing by 10 24-14. Quote
mg2009 Posted September 11, 2013 Posted September 11, 2013 nova is a talented team that lost a hardfought game to what might be a non-embarrassing BC team, and on the road by 3 to a fordham team that wasn't bad last year. Quote
CMSioux Posted September 11, 2013 Author Posted September 11, 2013 I'm hoping no one is defending ranking teams that are winless. Just shows that what ESPN commentators say is probably true the people voting are clueless, usually the assistant to the assistant athletic director for coaches polls. Quote

Just correcting 'Biz' that 'Nova did lose to an FBS school as opposed to losing to nobodies. Rankings don't matter at this point in the season...just gives rubes like us something to talk about :-) Quote
