Buffalo is dismantling Rutgers right now 35-6 in the second quarter. Rutgers is an embarrassment of a football program and I know the B1G has to regret taking them.

Rutgers being Rutgers. I don't even dislike the program. I wish em well. But boy... they stink. year after year!

...and not just in football. All their revenue programs stink! Coach Pikiell is cashing in but I'm sure he probably knows is going to be nearly impossible to improve that program

Chairman, STATS has us at number 18, not 20. I also think it's notable that we're 11 in the Massey composite. Villanova is #6. Heavyweight match-up regardless.


We continue to move up  in the polls.  Huge game Saturday night !

This is probably the biggest game at Lavalle since we joined the conference. I know we've hosted #2 Richmond and beat them, but the expectations were a lot lower then. Were it not for the #1 vs #3 XDSU bowl, this would easily be the game of the week nationwide. Can't wait until Saturday.

For the lover of God I'd love to sell the whole place out standing room only. We'll see!!

updated rankings:

CSM: #14 http://www.collegesportsmadness.com/fcs-football/top-25-rankings

Hero: #12 https://herosports.com/fcs-football-rankings

CBS: #17 https://www.cbssports.com/collegefootball/rankings/full?irgwc=1&irgwc=1&irgwc=1

Compughter: #14 http://www.compughterratings.com/FCS/rankings

Massey: #16 https://www.masseyratings.com/cf/compare1aa.htm

STATS: #18 http://www.fcs.football/fcsfront.asp

Athlon: #11 https://athlonsports.com/college-football/fcs-rankings-power-poll-following-week-5-2018

So Stats has SB moving from #20 last week to #18 today, and V only moving down 2 spots but is still ahead of SB?????

What a joke.
Not necessarily.  SB had the home field advantage and the outcome came down to the last play of the game. You can't really say SB is the better team at this point.

i know all polls use different criteria- but there is more than just head to head.  meaning, they look to the whole body of work thus far. 

with that said, i believe head to head is a critical factor, but again, not the only factor.

Chairman, I think you need to wait until the afternoon to post these polls. Compughter and the Massey Composite may have updated already, but the STATS poll and FCS coaches poll have yet to actually be released to the public. You posted last week's rankings there which just adds to the confusion. In a couple hours we'll know where we're at the polls that people actually look at. The STATS and FCS coaches poll.


I anticipate being somewhere in the 11-13 range today. A win next week will put us in the top 10 across the board, so it's a big game coming up this weekend at Towson. I'm thinking about making the trip up there myself.

they stage them before they post- so for the few that arent out sunday, you simply change the URL in the link from week x to week y and you can find their poll.  so they are this week's rankings, unless they change them after staging but before releasing.  you can tell by the dates and sometimes the records.

i dont think any one poll is definitive and all use different criteria.  id rather have a broader view than a narrow one, as a result...

STATS top 25 for this week was just updated. We're #13 now

I expect the Coaches Poll to be available within the hour, but the STATS poll is what most use and is the closest equivalent to the AP poll FBS teams use.
