Too lazy to look it up.
This has to be the tightest Sagarin "numbers" of all our games in Frisco or was the game last year as close? My memory says Towson was the widest margin.

Anybody remember what the lines were for our playoff games this season? Trying to see if we've been performing above, below or even par this year.
Way aboveQuote:

That's what I figured, was just hoping for some solid numbers. With that, I'd make my prediction (to myself as I don't put an actual number prediction on the board). I still don't see this being any closer than a two-score game.Quote:

So nothings changed
I know the final rankings won't come out until tonight's game is over. Our most recent ranking was 51. Any thoughts on where we finish the year? Do we break in to the 30s or stay in the 40s?
Doubt one game would change it that much. JSU was what, like 71st if I recall?Quote:

A guess at NDSU's new rating could be something like 75.26 which would be good for 47th on the last ratings issued.
We can gain a few more fractional points by having Auburn throttle Clemson.Quote:

Seriously, it just came out. 36.
21. Houston
35. Western Kentucky
Those are the two G5 schools ahead of NDSU. ISUr is the next FCS team at 76.
Today we would be just short of 8 point underdogs to Iowa in Kinnick Stadium.
You nailed it!!! #36 http://www.usatoday.com/sports/ncaaf/sagarin/Quote:

Montana 111
Montana St 143
SDSU 89
SD 144
Wisconsin 19
UNI 79 (dead heat finish with Illinois St for #2 FCS)
So, of all the regional D1 schools, NDSU is #3. I am okay with that, even though I am not sure the national media gets it, yet, however I am seeing "chinks in the armor." I've heard national conversations if NDSU should move up (Patrick yesterday), and national pundits pointing out NDSU is playing FBS talent in FCS. We are getting there; just need to keep dominating.
Love it. What a time to be a Bison. The future is bright, particularly with Kill retiring at MN.
Just noticed no traditional #25 votes in the AP poll for the FCS champ.
Since '11 our end of season sagarin ratings:
2011 - 37
2012 - 35
2013 - 17
2014 - 32
2015 - 36
Not bad Bison Nation
What would the line be against Alabama or Clemson?Quote:

We are along for the fan ride of a lifetime.
Don't blame them. Hard to put a vote on them with 2 loses, and one to SD. With that said, I am still very sore about 2013 not finishing in the top 25. That was a legit top 25 team.Quote:

So what is the reason for the big jump? Is there some extra credit for winning the FCS?Quote:

I don't know how it all works, but wouldn't now being better connected to all the teams JSU beat give a raise to the ratings?Quote:

No, there isn't. At least, I'd be extremely surprised if there were. That's not how it works.Quote:
