    By my analytics, we could get to #26 in the coaches poll this week with some key losses in #17 - 34. In the AP, my best guess is #30 (assuming the Cajuns are #37 - unlisted), with key losses amongst the same.

    First, we knocked on the door. Then, we beat on the door. This time, we're kicking it in.


    or something to that affect.

    What I don’t get is how North Dakota StAte can receive votes.

    I bet that would do wonders for recruiting.
    This used to be a dream, but is actually realistic with this staff and team now.

    We might have an argument, but our schedule will be too weak overall to support that argument. I doubt we could win against the top four and have a twenty game win streak and make the top four.

    Instead because we beat them their overall rank would be discounted.

    Short answer not gonna ever play for NC as a member of G5 much less SBC

    Yeah, that part was a little bit tongue in cheek, but the rest of it, although a long shot, is actually possible with this staff. Jmo

    Great, sometimes I don’t catch the sarcasm about the structure of the playoff system.

    I agree that there’s no real limit to how far this staff can bring the program.
