Wofford and Jacksonville State plummet to just barely in the top 25.

Looks good except #4 E. Washington should have dropped a spot or 2 and so should Illinois St. Didn't realize FU had 3 backs that averaged 10 yards per carry.

And Corey Watkins didn't even play.

8 of the 25 ranked FCS teams played within 14 points of FBS teams last week. It would be good if we would do as well as any of those 8 when we go to Georgia State Saturday.

COACHES rank 11th !!! Also of note another way it pays to start w higher rank is that in stats poll we were the last team to benefit from Wofford and JSU losing - IE we were 19th and now 17th and Wofford and JSU are now, 18 and 19. Had we been 23rd to start we wouldn’t have benefited from Wofford losing

we are 11 /13 /17 in various polls -great

Definitely an advantage to start in the poll. Example Colgate has one blowout loss to an FCS and one blowout to an FBS team being outscored 82-21 and still in the top 25. lol. Don't understand Nichols getting blown out by a mediocre FBS team and moving up.
