Different circumstances with it being the last game of the year and having a whole season of Drake football as a larger sample size. If Drake takes a ranked Iowa state to triple overtime in week 1 last year, I guarantee you that Drake is ranked the following week in the FCS polls.

Absolutely, and then UNI’s close loss wouldn’t look as impressive This is how college football polls work. This is exactly why everyone on this board cheered for Utah a few years back, it makes your loss look better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iowa St. beat Drake to end last year before a Bowl game.....27-24. Only if Drake could have taken them to OT would it have been a major accomplishment. Again, Iowa St. 27- Drake-24.

So...close losses mean nothing for the team that loses, but close wins somehow mean something for the team that wins? How is that logic reconcilable?

How is that logic reconcilable? Sorry, I was late to the Iowa St. discussion party. Mostly discussed. 2 of the best running jokes on this forum are No. Iowa quality losses and Smok'n Joe Protheroe. Both are Legendary. My view on Iowa St.- they tend to play to the level of their competition. After the Drake game Iowa St. lost by 2 in their Bowl game to Wash. St. (Quality bowl loss) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t read much into that score. ISU dialed that one down before kickoff, with no desire to embarrass an in state lesser opponent. Score doesn’t surprise me.

Wilbur Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 This doesn't belong here, but Klieman is such a good coach.....my gosh.....just smart plays for his team on the road at Mississippi State.

Not even close actually. Houston Baptist is an FCS program from the Southland conference (same league as Sam Houston). However they are rather new, and not all that good. It's not a great look for USD or the Missouri Valley FB Conference.......... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I said, it's a bad look for USD and for the mighty MVFC. But in the end, HBU is a DI program from one of the top four or five FCS leagues. It is not at all comparable to our loss or to our narrow win against NAIA Sioux Falls. That was a bad time for UND Football...... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
