They put UNI at #3 in the FCS.
(but also third in the MVFC, as the two teams ranked above are the two Dakota State schools)

Of course, preseason polls are mostly just works of fiction anyway

Depends which methodology and terminology you are using for your "mortality rate".

If 1.4 million is the number of confirmed cases, and there are 84,700 deaths from the virus, then that is in fact a 6.05% “case fatality rate”...

I hope it happens. (anything to get him out of NDSU, ASAP)...

Not that Nebraska is all that good of a football team these days.
But I suppose a bad Big Ten team is still more appealing to recruits than an above-average-but-not-top-of-the-pack FCS team.

and if he was interested in walking on at UNI, they likely would have let him...

we're going to build a wall, and NDSU will pay for it
