It's OK to not be OK.

And Marshall is only a few spots higher at 24 vs 32 for NDSU. Their record is nearly identical at 13-1 vs our 14-1, and their strength of schedule metric is almost the same as well at 59.05 vs 59.04.

I think Brock Spack mentions the day off (I think was Monday) in a story Found in Monday hot links on bison media blog, but mobile version does not show exact article link for copy paste.

Re: Sagarin says
I figured he'd just wait to do one after tonight's game, but Sagarin did an update after the game on Saturday. We're at #32 now (79.78). Very minimal change from last week. I'm curious to see how much tonight's game affects our final rating for this season.

Re: Sagarin says
I think #32, is probably about dead right on the quality of this team. It would be really cool is anyone could comb back through this thread and put up how NDSU finished in 2011, 12, 13, and 14 for comparison's sake. Of course, in past years, use the predictor if you are willing to dig them out.

Re: Sagarin says
I'm not at my computer, or I'd do it right now, but Sagarin has archives from past years on his site. Pretty easy to look up on there if you're so inclined.
FWIW - Massey has us at #35.

Last year's Sagarin was 17.
Now this is the law of the prairie
As old and as true as the sky
And the Bison that keep it will prosper
And the Bison that break it will die
As the creeper that girdles the tree trunk
This law is the final word:
For the strength of the Herd is the Bison
And the strength of the Bison is the Herd.
