2022 Ratings & Polls

Sagarin computer ranking after the 10-22-22 games:. There are 261 Division I teams ranked. I've pulled out the top 25 FCS teams plus the remainder of the MVFC. The first column is the rank compared to FCS teams. The second column is Sagarin's ranking among all Division I teams. Note the MVFC has seven of the top FCS teams in the Sagarin ranking scheme. Big Sky has six teams in the top 11 (and just the six in the top 25).

Thus far, Idaho hasn't done much to slow Hornets. Still plenty of game left, and hopefully Vandals gain momentum.

Seems like they're using camera crew/production team from UND game. Sac State just kicked a FG, and they opted to keep camera on kicker without showing ball go through uprights.

28-24 Fighting Ecks in the 4th. No matter the final, another thank you to the former Jacks coach.

Need to stop Hornets. They're gashing them in the run game late

[peavy]

One last bit of magic would be nice. I'm all for some additional chaos in the Big Sky. It was unfortunate Montana lost their starting QB to a targeting hit halfway through the game against Sac State last week. He didn't play this week either in the 24-21 loss to Weber State.

Looks like one of the areas Eck needs to recruit is some beef on the D line. Along with getting his strength program in place.

Agreed, and if Jacks and Hornets play in Frisco, hopefully Toyota Field's improved its "turf strength" and/or drainage programs.
