Committee Rankings?

Just makes no sense....NSDU...gets hosed and so do we

If they end up seeding JSU/SHSU ahead of EWU/NDSU assuming everyone wins out...there will be absolutely no reason to schedule difficult non-conf games moving forward...

Committee has us at the 3 seed currently, with Sam Houston #2 and JSU #1....looks like they really looked at a difficult strength of schedule... :roll:

NDSU is 4th, JMU 5th

These rankings are highly suspect. SHSU has played no one...

My top 4:

1)NDSU
2)EWU
3)JSU
4)SHSU
 
Apparently strength of schedule means nothing to these people. So under these rankings, if the top 4 win out, and then make it to the semis, we'd have to travel to Sam Houston?

Yes. What a load of bull.
 
FWIW, here are the initial top 10.

1. Jacksonville St
2. Sam Houston St
3. Eastern Washington
4. North Dakota St
5. James Madison
6. The Citadel
7. Richmond
8. Chattanooga
9. Charleston Southern
10. Central Arkansas

I'm calling BS on these rankings and hoping Central Arkansas beats SHSU.

I think Sam Houston is overrated. I'll bet they either drop a game in the regular season or lose before they make the semi's. My god, did the people that do these rankings even look at their schedule?

Sat, Sept 3 vs OK Panhandle St W 59-21
Sat, Sept 17 @ Lamar W 44-31
Sat, Sept 24 @ Houston Baptist W 52-16
Sat, Oct 1 vs SF Austin W 63-28
Sat, Oct 8 @ Incarnate Word W 63-48
Sat, Oct 15 vs Abilene Christian W 48-21
Sat, Oct 22 @ Nicholls W 38-21
Sat, Oct 29 vs Texas Southern W 66-17
Sat, Nov 5 vs McNeese St. 7:00 PM ET
Sat, Nov 12 @ Northwestern St. 7:00 PM ET
Sat, Nov 19 vs Cent Arkansas 7:00 PM ET

UCA is a pretty good team and should definitely have a shot.

Why?
 
Looks to me like someone just said "look at the polls and come up with a top ten you like junior and send it out....we are to busy to deal with this now." :thumbdown: :tothehand: :dunce: :ohno: :pissed: :wall: :censored: :wtf: :willybs: :lame: :rip: :rant: :question: :flag:
 
Hopefully the committee will apply some common sense next week. If Eastern and NDSU continue to win over ranked teams one would think they will move up to their rightful position.
But... common sense is not always common
 
clawman,
I don't think very much about the rankings. I have learned a long time ago, people will do what they want, regardless of how any team plays. I know what we put on the field every week. "An Outstanding Program and some very damn Outstanding Coaches and Players. We see this every week. I have been going to practices all this week, the team is looking great as usual. Play to their potential, we will go 8-1 overall, 6-0 in the Big Sky. Team will be departing about 12:15pm today, Chartered Flight, we will be there as usual to see our team depart for CP, game is at 6:05pm Saturday. I will listen to the Best Damn Radio Announcer in the Nation (Larry Weir), since the game is not going to be on TV. "LET US HAVE ANOTHER VICTORY' Go Eagles. Vic Wallace

Vic, you guys know how to view it on Watch Big Sky right? It's way easier and more reliable than it used to be and if you have a relatively new TV, you can watch it on that by simply running an HDMI cable from any computer to your TV.

Would be great, doubt they will be able to beat the semi-pro prison guard team SHSU has unless UCA has Paul Crewe playing QB for them.

... and then turn on Larry on the radio and you get the best of both worlds.
 
NDSU radio had the committee chair on today and they nailed him pretty good....basically the committee didn't do their research at all and really haven't met...what a joke...he sounded like a fool.

This sounds juicy.... got a link?
 
kalm,
I do have one of those Samsung TV, about 5 years old, ever so often, I have to upload stuff to the TV. I have been trying to get some sports on it, but I just doesn't have a long enough HMDI Cable. I do get onto our Blog on it, don't ask me how it works, everything for me is just luck. I have been trying Eversports, and some time get lucky. Larry Weir is my last resort, he is the "BEST. Come back with another "VICTORY" Go Eagles!!!!!Vic Wallace
