"I think they're very good," Farley said of the preseason top 25 Hawkeyes. "But so are we." -
A couple things.....
WHY are under YSU on this list? First of all, we beat them head-to-head, and second of all U comes before freakin' Y in the alphabet!
2005 Standings
YSU 5-2 8-3
UNI 5-2 11-4
SIU 5-2 9-4
ILS 4-3 7-4
WKU 4-3 6-5
WIU 3-4 5-6
MSU 2-5 4-6
INS 0-7 0-11
AND, HOW are both YSU and Ill St ranked above us? No respect.
1. APPALACHIAN STATE 12-3
2. NEW HAMPSHIRE 11-2
3. YOUNGSTOWN STATE 8-3
4. MONTANA 8-4
5. CAL POLY 9-4
6. ILLINOIS STATE 7-4
7. JAMES MADISON 7-4
8. NORTHERN IOWA 11-4 -
Good question Mountain Panther. Can anyone shed some light for me on why Illinois State is ranked so high this year. With all due repect to the Red Birds (and after last season there definitely is some), I must have missed something. Thanks.Originally posted by Mountain PantherComment

IL St has some good talent returning and people are making the leap that they can make the next step. Until they get it done on the field, I'm not picking them above 3rd or 4th but they have enough talent to win enough games that the final game of the season could be for the title. Good defensive speed and a couple of good wide receivers.If computers ruled college basketball the way they do football, we'd have skipped all this March Madness monotony and just waited a month for the Kansas-Kentucky title game. And watched Northern Iowa play Cornell in the Poulan Weedeater Bowl. ~ Dwight Perry The Seattle Times

what poll is that? most polls have us right up there.Selling a lot of old UNI stuff here: http://www.panthernation.com/showthread.php?t=65762Comment

The poll that is listed here is Don Hansen's Football Gazette poll. It is pretty much one guy's opinion with some help form his staff. He works for a football magazine, so that's why is rankings get published and say for example mine isn't.Oh, and let me make this perfectly clear to you people: you go to UNI, NOT IOWA. The Hawkeyes and their fans do not give a crap if you remain "true to them" or some stupid self-fulfulling bullcrap like that.-OTP
What i say are my opinions and mine alone, and not that of anyone associated with me.Comment

What I think is the funniest thing is the fact that the Gateway conference selected UNI as the pre-season favorite. Maybe the Gateway knows something the rest of the nation should take heed of?!!Comment

5 out of our 11 games are vs. Top 20 teams as of today. That's a tough schedule. Any other non-Gateway teams have that many?"10% of life is what happens to you, 90% is how you react to what happens."Comment
