After a win over UNI this Saturday we should move up considerably!

Re: Jeff Sagarin in USA Today ratings

Not bad, but it's very early for these ratings to be accurate and it doesn't take into account sub I-AA games, for example Div III games :-[

I like that idea, maybe we should do that too. ;D

Re: Jeff Sagarin in USA Today ratings

I thought it was interesting that even with two losses (one to a dIII school) the computer still put us ahead of 3 IA schools and several IAA schools with one or two wins? They didn't all play Crookston and Quincy, did they? Computers are smarter than people apparently. ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
