New AP poll - SDSU #22
The new AP poll just came out and SDSU is now ranked #22. I have mixed feelings since we could have easily pulled yesterday's game off if not for that horrible start. We hung with them late in the game.

CMU recieved 16 votes while Toledo and WMU only recieved 6 each.

So we pushed the #22 team in the Nation pretty well. We need a W under our belt.

This team needs a blowout win vs WIU for a confidence booster going into MAC play. A close win isn't gonna do it. I hope our coaching staff goes for the throat from the opening kickoff next week and doesn't let off the gas. This team needs it

IMO, USF is a much better team. If one of those two teams should be ranked it should be USF.

SDSU's defense wasn't very good. Their defensive end and CB were both good defensive players but their defense overall was nowhere near as good as USF's.

We didn't quit yesterday and that made a big difference. USF might be better than SDSU but we played much worse against USF. We threw in the towel early whereas we came back against SDSU. That makes a big difference in how the teams look.

Why is it that SDSU beats a 1-AA team, beats Cal by 5, and beats an 0-3 NIU team and gets ranked and WMU beats two Big Ten teams on the road, one of which in dominating fashion, and a 1-AA and only gets 16 votes?

Not at all convinced we can beat a well coached solid WIU team. I hope we can but nothing would surprise me next weekend.

USF had a much better QB and Marlon Mack who is a beast didn't even play against us and they still beat us in dominating fashion. Imagine if SDSU played without Pomphrey. I'd take Flowers at QB over that SDSU QB. Those USF wide receivers were all huge and fast too.

I think Cal beating Texas last night helped SDSU. Illinois and Northwestern aren't as good. It also shows a lack of respect for MAC teams.

USF has better all around players in my opinion. Pumphrey carried SDSU.

That's what I was getting at. The lack of respect for the MAC. If any MAC team played and beat those same three opponents I bet they would not be ranked #22.

In 2013 we beat Iowa and destroyed Purdue, both on the road, and won our first 12 games and I don't think we were ranked until week 9 or 10.

CMU is 3-0 and beat OSU yet they still received way more votes than us. As you said look at WMU, they are also getting jobbed. The MAC never gets respect.

CMU should be 2-1 and everyone who votes knows that. It can't help.

Why?
Because they are in a different conference, or are you saying that because they beat NIU?

FWIW I believe that both USF and SDSU are very good teams. Of those two, I personally feel that USF is better. That said, the MAC has 3 solid teams right now that can beat any G5 team that is out there......except Houston.

I kind of understand WMU and Toledo not getting tons of votes just because they haven't played anyone yet. Although same can be said of SDSU and USF, so yeah it doesn't make much sense.

Flowers will be exposed against FSU. We couldn't cover their receivers and they were running free all night. I think it'd be a pretty good ballgame if they played each other.

NIU was ranked in week 5 (immediately after the Purdue win) in the coaches poll and week 6 in the AP poll.
