    Re: day after

    To the point....my post mentioned the past 4 years....meaning 2007 to present.

    In this time period we are not winning the games.

    Prior we were winning and with much less talent than we have now....

      Yeah, we were awesome in 2006.

      the 2005 team somehow managed to always win that "intangibles" category through the late season and most of the postseason (all the way up till the second half of the championship game).

      In subsequent years.... not so much.
      Don't really know exactly what those intangibles are, though (which, if I did, then they would be tangibles)

        The point I'm trying to make is in 2007 to present the talent level and expectations have been highest in program history. I can name plenty of teams at the fcs level prior to 2007 that had more talent than UNI. 2007 to present, we have not played one team yet that was more talented than us. We just are not getting the job done.

          Kansas had a more talented team than UNI in basketball last year.

                Rima said there would only be 2 at large bids because of new conferences getting automatic bids after the SDSU game

                  There are only 2 "new" at-large bids. The rest remain.

                      Of the 4 new bids this year, going from a 16 to 20 team playoff format, 2 of those "new" bids are going to be at large and the other two bids are going to go to conferences as automatic bids, conferences that did not have auto bids prior to the expanded format. So, 10 total at large bids and 10 total automatic bids to conference champs. It was 8 at large and 8 auto in the 16 team format. There will be a number of teams in the FCS that don't win their auto bid that will think they should get one of those 10 at large bids and/or feel like even thou their league was a 1 bid league in previous years they will have a good shot at getting one of those two new at large bid, a league like the Ohio Valley might think that. Now don't get me wrong, I am NOT saying the Ohio Valley should get one at large bid to go along with their auto bid but the teams in that league are going to think they have a decent shot now at getting an at large since the field expanded. Will the committee take a team out of the Ohio Valley that finishes 2nd in that conference and has a 8-3 record or take a team in the MVFC that finishes 3rd and goes 8-3 or maybe goes 7-4 but finishes 6-2 in the MVFC and ties for 2nd or takes 3rd place? I would like to think the MVFC would win that bid but I hate to put it in the hands of the committee!!

                        Rima said that of the 4 NEW bids to the 20 team field only 2 would be at large bids and the other two would be automatic bids for conference champs that in previous years their league did not get an automatic bid! That is what Rima said....IF I heard him right.......! ; )
