The NCAA publishes the coaches and media polls every week. Those are the ones to keep an eye on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I consider SHSU a quality win, even though they haven't lived up to their #5 ranking from that game. It's impressive to go on the road and end a team's 21 game home winning streak. The question is will the committee find it to be a quality win. I'm honestly not sure. Siouxfan97, apparently, knows exactly how the committee will react to the Sammy game even though the season has yet to end - so much so that CAPITAL LETTERS are necessary. Let's end the debate with a win this weekend. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrueSioux2000 Posted October 22, 2018 Share Posted October 22, 2018 I haven't paid attention to the polls this year. Do "quality losses" still count? Or are we not doing that anymore Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much like the whole "This is the worst Griz team in _______ years" after UND smacked them debate opened up. Great point. This board is exceedingly good at downgrading our own accomplishments - and we do it week after week. It's amazing to see. We hand Montana one of the worst losses in the history of their program (worse than most FBS schools have beaten them) and we don't give ourselves credit. We rush for the second most yards in UND history (in history!!) and we downgrade it by talking about how bad our opponent is - even though we DOUBLED their average rush yards given up. And on and on. I'm mostly entertained by these types of comments, but there are times when I just shake my head at the overall attitude of many of the posters here. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That means we drop 2 of 3 to end the year, not good. We are barely in the top 24 tournament right now. I am almost guaranteeing 7-4 is a play-off snub. I think we need to beat Weber and then could afford one slip to make it in at 8-3. If we lose to Weber and win out, that 8-3 puts us on the bubble, depending on the quality of the home loss to Weber. Win out and I don't think we can climb into a seed, top 8, we just are not a darling of the pollsters....unless we beat Weber by 2 TDs, then maybe some pollsters will fall in love with us again, like 2016 when we were probably ranked too high and seeded.

Risky Posted October 22, 2018 Share Posted October 22, 2018 The reality of ranking in polls is this. Everything starts with what you were like the year before and whether the pollsters have respect for you from the start of the year. We were not ranked last year and they had no respect for us. If we end up having a good year there will a lot less complaining next year. The starting point will be totally different. Let's just keep winning this year. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's say we go 9-2, one of those losses it to a decent FBS team. I would think that would be in the conversation for a top 8 seed. Hopefully Idaho State will win some more games as well.

Weber played JMU tough last season, that is what the pollsters know. They beat E. Washington this year, the pollsters have heard of E Washington, big deal. When we beat Weber, I bet Weber is still ranked ahead of us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
