I think they're a really good team deserving of a top 5 spot in the preseason considering what they return but I also think their playoff belly flops are a direct result of a team with not much mental toughness because they play in a Charmin soft conference. They're not nearly as bad as their playoff exits the last two years have made them look but they don't seem to know how to compete when they get punched in the mouth because that just doesn't happen to them in their conference.
Correct, thus they aren't a top 5 team. Top teams can compete with other top teams. Honestly, I'd be embarrassed to see NDSU lose that badly to Alabama much less an FCS peer. You might be right about them, I'm just feeling that they need to prove it, and prove it somewhere other than the southland (thus playoffs)

As far as the shit hawks go, there is 6-7 teams on that poll ranked below them that should be ranked ahead of them!!! They played nobody last year and it showed glaringly in the playoffs!!! They have to prove themselves!
