Learn to consistently beat FCS teams before talking about some other programs schedule.

I'll be honest, I'd take UNI to win over Miami (OH).

I didn't realize you had to be good to analyze another team's schedule

UNI is much better than Miami of Ohio. UNI would be 20 pt favorites over Miami of Ohio if they played in Cedar Falls according to Sagarin.

Haha you have to love this little kid's ego.
He's probably 16 and sitting in study hall right now. Probably never been to an Iowa game before.

 

[AmesHawk]

Yeah those wins over Bowling Green, Hawaii, Furman (?), and Miami.......(OH) were BIG TIME.

Where LSU?

 

[Doc]

If we were playing a legit Top 10 team on the road, we'd be 20+ point dogs.

I know you probably thought you had some great comeback here but what the hell does that have to do with anything?

Oh, and #5 LSU. Poor B1G. It's not like our top ranked team got smoked by Houston or anything...

And what was Sagarin's spread of the UNI @ ISU game?

 

[BBHMagic]

Where LSU?

They were beaten by a top 10 team? Are hawk fans all high today?

I am pretty sure Sagarin had them ahead of ISU in his initial rankings

Very well could have. My comment wasn't meant to be a bash on anything at all, I was merely curious because you had pointed out that UNI would be a 20 point favorite over Miami (OH), which I think is probably a bit much.

We may be dogs in rest of games except one.

Kansas would be a 12 point favorite over Miami in Lawrence

 

[VeloClone]

Look at Wisconsin. They went from unranked straight to Top Ten.

Pssst. Look at Texas.

Looks like he needs to update the algorithm though. Houston at #17 and OU at #4? LSU still #8? Ouch.

Upsets never happen

Yeesh, ISU is 82nd.

Surprised it's that high.

 

[BBHMagic]

You betcha.

Oh my bad. I forgot that you guys just hop between whichever polls are most convenient even it's not the one being discussed.
