Want to get votes? Beat someone convincingly that isn’t a SWAC/FCS team. We barely beat a bad Belcher, beat a SWAC team, played a good game against a top 10 team and beat a good CUSA team by 2 points. If Holtz will take his foot off the brake and beat someone by more than 3 points, maybe we could get more votes.
Even that does not count as we saw when we lost under Dykes and lost WAC title -- It only means something to fan base to be ranked-- nowadays its all about the final 4 and national championship. Why spoil something that makes your fan base happy??
Progams like Tech don't get votes for losing so I totally disagree with "doesn't matter" -- its a sign you are winning ...
Both sunbelt schools have at least one more loss on that schedule..
Both have “beaten” up on lesser opponents.
The sunbelt has actively promoted these two schools above the others.
The coaches poll is a who you know poll this early in the season.
Yeah App State would be a great team to have in the conference. I would trade several CUSA teams to belt for App St. They are always a tough program.
This may be the new best thread ever. You guys are cracking me up.
As long as Skip is HC we will never be ranked.
Stop worrying about polls.
