    Maybe not but Wisconsin is also expected to be a national title contender and is ranked #4 in the country and they are playing in Wisconsin. I don't think that spread is as much about WKU being worse this year as it is about Wisconsin being that good and playing at home.

    And remember: "the Spread" is not necessarily about the predicted score but about on which team the majority of the money is being bet in Vegas.

    Well, they lost to Ga. State in the bowl game last year and Phil Steele has them predicted tied with FIU for 5th in the East. I don't think they get six wins this year.

    I’m pretty sure that the top is where it’s at. The money is given to the leagues by how they finish, and the bulk of points is always given to best teams in conferences.

    So SBC top teams > CUSA top teams because Sun Belt has received more CFP money than CUSA in the last couple of seasons.

    I'm pretty sure that's how it works. And let the chips fall wherever they fall.

    I'm just saying for the most part we define teams by how they compete against their better opponents, not their worst.

    Clearly bad losses can impact you, but without good wins you don’t get to the NCAA as an at large. Regardless of sport, we always ask who did ya beat.

    I know the SBC had a better bowl record than CUSA last post season. However, I thought the NCAA made the financial distribution decision based on the entire season vs just bowl results. Is it definite the SBC received a higher football payout than CUSA once last season ended? I know that was the case after 2016. In fact the league received more than the MAC that year. Not sure about 2017 however.

    Reality Check:

    I think we win by 2 scores + this weekend. That said, before I make fun of or gloat about anyone being on this list, I am reminded that we are probably one upset loss by a FCS team from being included on this list

    Not a big fan of the bottom 10. Do you really need to kick these teams when they are down? They already know they suck.

    Agreed, but anyone can get on that list. Believe me Bama would be on it if somehow they stumbled their first three games. The best thing we can do is avoid losing streaks.

    Coach Reboe and his team just beat the Kansas Nayhawks. Will #4 leapfrog the three CUSA teams to be number 1?
