    Did some sorting and reformatting, and here is how we compare against the FCS as far as win percentage from 2000-2007.

    Code:
    [B]Winning percentage: 2000-2007[/B]						
 	 					        	Schedule
[U]Rank	Team    	Pct	W	L	T	Conf.	Points[/U]
1	Montana 	0.8198	91	20	0	Big Sky	18.84
2	Dayton (OH)	0.7931	69	18	0	Pioneer	9
3	Harvard (MA)	0.7595	60	19	0	Ivy	10.63
4	Duquesne (PA)	0.7529	64	21	0	MAAC	5.86
5	App St. (NC)	0.7453	79	27	0	SoCon	62.29
6	Grambling St	0.7234	68	26	0	SWAC	19.31
7	Lehigh (PA)	0.7204	67	26	0	Patriot	13.25
8	San Diego (CA)	0.7176	61	24	0	Pioneer	12.96
9	Pennsylvania	0.7089	56	23	0	Ivy	15.66
10	Northern Iowa	0.7071	70	29	0	MVFC	43.63
    I included "Schedule Points" (not exactly sure how it was figured, but the higher the number means the tougher the schedule) to show that the only FCS team above us with similar schedule toughness is App State.

    I could compile data for FCS teams further down the list if anyone really wants it, but since most people probably don't care, I'm not gonna bother.

      No kidding. I like Obama and wish this person would change their screen name.

      But to each his own I guess.

            I am half joking here....

            But I have suspicions that you are secretly OBama Panther. The tone and language of some of your posts just seem similiar to Obamapanthers.

            Any truth? are you Obama PAnther?

              I think I understand your feeling. It is the same feeling I get when I see that picture of McCAin giving Bush that loving bear hug.

                That is some good stuff Jay. I definitely think that schedule strength needs to be taken into consideration. Either way, we have been one of the successfull programs in the FCS.

                  Oh I hate Montana but damn, they have averaged almost 14 games a season in that 8 year stretch. And a majority of their games are home must be sweet for the fans.

                    This is debatable. We have some huge OL coming in, and Grace is bigger, sronger and faster than Sanders.

                          Size doesn't really matter in either case. Can the OL actually play, and can they function as a unit? Size is worthless if you're not one mean, athletic, thinking SOB.

                          Can Grace make smart decisions with the football and get it to Johnny Gray, Lewis, Leonard, etc?

                          Those answers are yet to be determined.

                            I remember seeing a picture of the Delaware offensive line preseason last year over on AGS and thinking "wow, they are small compared to our line."

                            Then they beat us.

                              100% wrong. I despise Obama and 99.9% of what he stands for/believes. Even if I were trying to "pull the wool" over someones eyes, I would never go as far as putting Obama, or any democrat in my name.
