        Hard for me to believe there are 5 Un-defeated teams.....

          Well, some of them didn't exactly have super challenging schedules....

          UNI has had a few easy games, sure. But they also have some decent non-conference wins and winning out in the Gateway is always impressive.

          NDSU had some easy games too, but also some big wins.

          Montana had a cupcake non-con, and the Big Sky is down this year.

          McNeese State has played an easy schedule, so I'm not ALL that impressed by them being undefeated.

          And while the Ivy league certainly has history, so does Drake. But they don't really compete with FCS powerhouses, so Yale doesn't impress me either.

            Probably a bunch of coaches thinking "well, they can't make the playoffs. but I'll vote them #1 as a consolation".

            NDSU is a good team. I'm not losing any sleep over being a few points behind them in the coaches poll.

              I've heard mention a couple times that this is the first time in history a Gateway team has run the table? Is that right or was I hearing things?
              EVER LOYAL.

                There have been teams that have run the table in Gateway play, but if UNI can beat SUU, they will be the first to go totally undefeated in the regular season.

                Though there have been 11 occurances of Gateway teams that have only lost once in the regular season (with a second loss coming in the playoffs):
                SIU '04, SIU '03, WIU '02, WIU '97, UNI '96, EIU '95, UNI '92, UNI '91, WIU '88, EIU '86, UNI '85

                    And what I found neat to look at was this:

                    11/13/07
                    Gridiron Power Index (GPI) Through 11/11/07, Northern Iowa No. 1

                    2007 Gridiron Power Index (GPI) Debut Announced, Northern Iowa No. 1
                    Their GPI archive with a clean sweep having UNI on top each week (since they don't start the GPI until october) this season.

                    Not sure anyone else really cares about the polls at this point, but I like posting them here each week for reference. Don't worry, only one more week of polls ;op

                      That's quite a difference between the top 2 teams and the 3rd team.
