Dagger Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 Western Illinois and Eastern Illinois getting in before us. What a joke. They have made a mockery of the whole process. Very sad. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MafiaMan Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 Western Illinois and Eastern Illinois getting in before us. What a joke. They have made a mockery of the whole process. Very sad.Well, to be fair, all of their "experts" are busy working on the North Carolina football and basketball cheating case...sanctions coming any day now, I hear.

FSSD Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 Don't forget about SHSU - the Southland absolutely sucks..... half the schools are in the middle of a transition to D-1. Unbelievable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SiouxVolley Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 (edited) Seems like we've been on the wrong end of a few processes/committees as of late...The NCAA FCS playoff committee hated the F'n Hawks name so much that they did not want to lower themselves to include it and us.Robert Otis Kelley approves of committees and disapproves of this message.

geaux_sioux Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 Otis is it and him. I bet he'd be a lot more respectable if he went by Otis instead of Robbert. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Risky Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 Seems like we've been on the wrong end of a few processes/committees as of late...Didn't our women's basketball team that won the Big Sky regular season and conference tournament have to travel to Texas for March Madness and USD got to stay close to home and go to the Regional we thought we were going to be playing in. (USD was lower ranked than we were) Seems like UND coaches thought our women's team got the short end of the stick too. Let's face it, NCAA is still holding a grudge against UND. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Sicatoka Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 Western Illinois and Eastern Illinois getting in before us. What a joke. They have made a mockery of the whole process. Very sad.Take a peek at New Hampshire's 2015 resume. Best win was at home v. Richmond and an FBS loss. It is enough to make a fellow paranoid. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything to remind us that we are that small school on the prairie that tried to not give in to the cry bullies. They look, the other way for hockey because it means nothing to them.

Shawn-O Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 Take a peek at New Hampshire's 2015 resume. Best win was at home v. Richmond and an FBS loss. It is enough to make a fellow paranoid. The at-larges followed Sagarin to a tee, except North Dakota being 9 spots above UNH. (147 v 156). Strange indeed. of course they are don't expect it to change. Just because we are a birdie now. Anything to remind us that we are that small school on the prairie that tried to not give in to the cry bullies. They look, the other way for hockey because it means nothing to them. Hockey is 100% objective, no gray area to screw us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best View in the House Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 Here's a couple more stats to think about.Conference PF's and PA's......Western Illinois 224-260 and New Hampshire 171-172UND was 255-218Eastern Illinois wins were a combined 28-48 on the season.UND's were 32-45 and that includes FBS Wyoming (1-11)Besides being the only 7 win team to beat a FBS team to not make the playoffs, UND is one of only 2 teams this season to beat a FBS school and a seeded playoff team. Congratulations!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zonadub Posted November 28, 2015 Share Posted November 28, 2015 Maybe the ncaa is trying to force the split of the Big Sky into FBS and FCS leagues. Only 3 of 13 teams from the #2 rated FCS conference. Idaho State would likely not be one of the move-ups. A little jealousy on the ISU AD's part in not supporting his conference more?Sioux Volley, you got anything? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wisconsin Sioux Posted November 28, 2015 Share Posted November 28, 2015 NCAA wanted and demanded we change the name from Sioux. They also denied in my opinion the religious rights of the Sioux nation by ignoring the ceremony that gave UND the right to use the name Sioux. Now you would think the NCAA would have wanted UND to be recognized under the new name, but they refused the bid into the national championship series. Interesting...
