  • Ranking

    From the looks of things on the AGS poll, be prepared for UNI to be ranked BEHIND SIU. Truly makes no sense to me. Identical records and we beat them head to head. Three straight wins over teams ranked 11, 6, and 4 at the time. If that doesn't get us in the top 10, I don't know what will. The big reason this bugs me is that if SIU stays ranked ahead of us and takes care of NDSU, based on ranking they may host ahead of UNI. Who knows. At this point, UNI simply needs to focus on the task at hand, NAU.

    Nope, SIU won't host with 3 losses. Poor attendance and the whole head to head thing. The selection committee won't pass out home games based on rankings...

      We will be ranked ahead of SIU. They've got to take the last 3 into serious consideration for us, beating 3 top 15 in consecutive weeks with 2 being former #1's within the last month. But, the committee won't rely on the polls as much as you think when they dish out the home games.

        Very, very, very unlikely we host a home playoff game! Very true. And screw the rankings. Just kick some.......ya know! Let's face it. I love the Salukis, but we should have never been #1 this year. WKU sure as hell should have never been #1. The rankings are far from a perfect science. You guys have been tested at home and away and came out ahead in both places. I will only say this......if we see ya in the Dome again in a few weeks, it's hard to beat a team twice that close together! Good Luck, to hell with all the rankings, and let's get ready for what really matters. The Playoffs! (WHere you got that pic of me after the game last night I will never know!)
