Will we be ranked in this week's polls?

[HandoEX]

I know polls don't mean squat right now, but just want to hear what the consensus is from our fan base. I think we'll be about #20.

Anyone know if any FCS ranked teams lost this week?

I would guess we would be ranked or get a lot of votes.

I agree, somewhere between 20 and 25 is well deserved at this time.

If not top 10 then its bull!!!! We beat a big 12 team. Show me ANY fcs tram that has done that....tell me

[NDSUstudent]

We'll be ranked, probably in the low 20s. I had NDSU 17th in my AGS ballot.

#4 William and Mary lost to unranked UMass 23-27. So I would guess UMass could move up into the FCS polls, and I doubt W&M drops out complete.

Also #17 Jacksonville State beat Ole Miss in that thriller 2OT game 49-48, so they should probably move up from that 17 spot.

#1 Villanova lost to temple in a close game, 24-31

#7 Elon lost to Duke 27-41

#8 Richmond lost to Virginia 13-34

#10 South Carolina State lost to Georgia Tech 10-41

#11 Stephen F. Austin lost to Texas A&M 7-48

#14 Eastern Washington lost to Nevada 24-49

#18 Weber State lost to Boston College 20-38

#21 Eastern Illinois lost to Iowa 7-37


The rest of the ranked teams either won or had a bye week one. The fact that every one of these losses are against D1 (FBS) teams, I doubt you see really any movement in the rankings this week for D1aa (FCS).

I dunno, earning about 500 or so votes is going to be tough, a lot of teams above us in the polls (more votes but unranked) did pretty well. I think we stay unranked but get really close (where Illinois St. is right now about) and get ranked if we beat UNI on Saturday.

I would much, much rather see NDSU with a 2-0 record a week from now than receive a place in the polls this week... but I'd say 24 is appropriate... for now.
