I think that 109 is a little rediculous. I think that a more realistic rating would have us in the 60's-70's. we just get rated so low because we were in last place of the worst conference in D1A football at the end of last year. I thinkt that our team is much better this year and that we will end up ranked much more respectably by the end of the season. our rankings cant get much worse, but they do have room to get alot better.

Here are some numbers:

I took the ranking of each school in each conference to get a total, then divided by the number of schools in the conference to get an average (rounded to one decimal):

So SEC = 39.3 = 472 / 12 teams

SEC 39.3

BIG 12 39.9

ACC 40.8

PAC-1O 41.1

BIG TEN 42.2

BIG EAST 54.5

MOUNTAIN WEST 56.3

WAC 77

C-USA 85.2

MAC 89.7

SUN BELT 105.5

Fairly close to their conference ratings. I may make it a project to track this during the season!

---Let see......... The last place team in the worse rated conference gets to play #1 and "Defending National Champion" in game 1...... pass the aspirin please.

---If your kid are the dumbest kid in the dumbest class on campus... it is rather unlikely that your kid that is all that average in intelligence.......... 109 may be low (now) but to put us in the middle is absolutly "green-eyed optimism".....especially when the last scimmage was a comedy of errors.

--- It the #1 team in the nation (Texas?) can't center the ball correctly they will lose, even if playing a low ranked team.... unfortunately it doesn't seem to be them but us at the moment....[ Feel my pain!!!] Forget the rest of practice --That is THE PRIORITY, get the ball into the hands of the QB and absolutely don't leave it on the ground. [ oh the pain!!!..I need some painkiller, and soon... ]

----Is there any possibility that all those turnovers and fumbles were an attempt to make UT over-confident.? I am sure they are shaking in their boots now after reading these articles about our screw-ups and great ranking... [ Where is that pain/killer?? ]

Would you pick us to beat any of these teams (honestly):

61 TOLEDO MAC

62 MINNESOTA BIG TEN

63 WAKE FOREST ACC

64 CONNECTICUT BIG EAST

65 KENTUCKY SEC

66 KANSAS BIG 12

67 N.C. STATE ACC

68 KANSAS STATE BIG 12

69 HOUSTON C-USA

70 MIAMI (OHIO) MAC

71 HAWAII WAC

72 SAN DIEGO ST. MTN. WEST

73 SMU C-USA

74 BOWLING GREEN MAC

75 MISSISSIPPI SEC

76 STANFORD PAC-10

77 MEMPHIS C-USA

78 MISSISSIPPI STATE SEC

79 OREGON STATE PAC-10

80 COLORADO ST. MTN. WEST

SMU is rated too high as well - look at the teams under them. SMU doesn't beat any SEC or PAC 10 teams this year.

Do you see any Sun Belt teams in that group? No. Then they would be OOC games and we know what the results will be. sad.gif

I really do not think the talent gap is that big of an issue, it is the lack of change and adaptation to the other teams manuevers. The players are the Pawns and the Coaches are the Chess Masters.

I dont think that we would be favored in any of those games, but a few of those teams are way over-rated due to conference affiliation. I think K-state, mississippi state, and Oregon State are bottom of the barrel in any conference this year and that we would have an excellent chance against them. I also think that Memphis and San Deigo st. are under-rated. maybe... just maybe, I was a little optimistic with my origional statment, but I still think that we are 20-25 places better than #109. thats my opinion and I am sticking with it. I mean it... dont test me again... the end.

      Morris signals it is over

      Unfortunately this comment by the head coach at UNT is going to appear defeatist and will do nothing to motivate students, fans or players. Wish it had been some other school’s head coach. Awful publicity for UNT.

      Morris signals it is over

      Morris didn't say anything that most of us haven't already said or felt. Quite frankly, what he said has been true for a lot longer than many of us want to admit. Our lack of commitment to athletics (whether you want to blame it on administration, students, alumni, or realistically all of the above) has set us back and has been an issue for years. It still hasn't changed, and it's going to continue to come back to bite us for years to come. There has to be a clear divide at some point, even though I would argue there's been a fuzzy divide for a long time. It's just a matter of time at this point that it becomes crystal clear. We are not going to be in the top tier of that divide. Our stakeholders (I use this broadly and there are clear exceptions) have made that choice over however many years now. It's just going to finally come to a head.

      If the basis for this is simply "not Power conference", then sure. The scholarship allotments suggest difference is level of play, though. I know NIL has negated a lot of that at the current P5/G5 level, but I would think that once you get past a certain point, outside the bubble of the P4, the impact of NIL could be watered down and you will still see scholarship limits play into the level of competition in front of you.

      Softball Tournament Bracket

      After UAB swept us in the regular season, then proceeded to win more games we needed them to lose, and lose games we needed them to win, it's nice for ECU to put an end to their season. Hopefully we can win our fourth straight against the Pirates tomorrow.

      Seton Hall star Kadary Richmond enters transfer portal

      If her team doesn't win, her market value and name recognition will quickly decline. The team as a whole and coach make the value.
