........And next year it will be North Dakota State and Cal Poly leading the GWFC.... ;D

[jackrabbit1979]

I feel good about SDSU's season as we had wins over two teams in the poll (Southern and NDSU) and almost beat a third at their place (POLY). ;D :D ;D
If it wasn't for our horrendous road schedule who knows, we may have been in the poll as well.

It's nice DIAA has a true playoff rather than a popularity contest like DIA.

[Gamehunter]

which will probably give I-AA more respect in the comming years if I-A doesn't figure out their shatty system.

[Rodentia]

There is growing discontent with the I-A system, and I think there will eventually be a playoff. The Bowl Committees have a lot of power, however.
