Sadly the those idiot pollsters still see Pitt having more prestige than us, thats probably why.NY-BG-FAN wrote:Sure is an accomplishment, but once again the voters find a new way to embarrass themselves. It doesn't bother me that we are 25th, but how can Pitt be ahead of us (24) after being destroyed by Duke by 21 two days after we were the only team to get within 20 of them, let alone ten? Makes no sense. Our team could handle Pitt by 10-12 points. Saw them play in person, not impressed. BEAT DELAWARE!
Because the polls, once again, are biased. As long as BG keeps winning, we'll move up slowly. Delaware is gonna be a huge test...they are very good.NY-BG-FAN wrote:Sure is an accomplishment, but once again the voters find a new way to embarrass themselves.

Delaware is far scarier right now...there is the revenge factor and they are our next game.Joe Foss wrote:I wouldn't overlook Robert Morris, up next for your Falcons after Delaware. They already have wins over Kent State, Miami, and Ohio, and have an RPI of 107. They would be quite competitive in the MAC.
Falcon30 is right, Delaware is the focus now, after that game and saturday is Rober Morris focus. I wish I could be their Friday, but I'll be there SundayFalcon30 wrote:Delaware is far scarier right now...there is the revenge factor and they are our next game.Joe Foss wrote:I wouldn't overlook Robert Morris, up next for your Falcons after Delaware.

No one is looking past Robert Morris, they just aren't next.
We have to beat Delaware...

I believe the coach of that team made a comment at halftime as she was walking into the locker room in Cancun something similar to "Dammit ladies, those women came to play. I sure as hell hope you did too." Someone else may want to correct my recollection if I got the quote wrong.greg1 wrote:...then again, I can think of a team that is going to be a HUGE favorite to get one of the 1 seeds who wants nothing to do with facing Bowling Green again so there is probably no need to worry about avoiding a 1 seed.
That quote is sweet to hear!

A seed in the 5-6 range would be almost too earthshattering (For the NCAA commitee) for us to get such a high seed but it would be something else though if we could. I'm hopeing for at least a 9-7 seed.Jacobs4Heisman wrote:Our RPI right now is at 25 and Delaware's is at 12. Since nobody in the MAC East is better than 117 (Ohio), we really need this win to stay up there.
Ball State has climbed to 52, and NIU to 75. Duke is 2 and Indiana is 17. The MAC is the 12th rated conference overall. If we can run the table from here, I really think we have a shot at a decent seed -- maybe in the 5-6 range. I'd have to think we'd end up in the top 15 in both polls also. Potential to be a great ride this season.
