Congrats. Not long ago a SBC team wasn't even considered. Now if you win you pull some votes.

How about another first for the conference. 3 different teams being ranked at some point during the same season.

RE: Coastal is RANKED
This is what happens when conferences members knock off a few P5s each year.
Troy opened the door a few years ago, the perception is changing folks.
Congrats CCU, pleasantly surprised I thought it may take one more week.

Nice job Chants! It's awesome to see. Hopefully we can get two Top 25 teams back in the polls.

I was expecting it this week. Coastal has a P5 win, a blow out win vs a team with a P5 win, and a win over a top 25 team. they really should be about 3 spots higher. but its their 1st time, and so they have a first timer ranking perception to overcome. the next time will be more fair to where they belong.

Have to think Marshall is having convulsions about being behind us (at 25) in the Coaches’ Poll. Lol.

Agree with you completely... but I think the only reason we overcame that 1st timers perception is because of the screwy season we are all in. Normal year, I think it takes more, another win over a top SB, like App St in a couple weeks. But, we will take it and love it.
Also, saw Liberty has more votes than the next SB team, after their win over a terrible Syracuse squad. Can you imagine that CCU/Liberty rivalry of old could be a Top 25 matchup to close the season? Lol. Crazy.

Another demonstration of the importance of building a conference around committed programs rather than "marketz".
Wish I could find the thread on the CUSA board where they were making fun of Coastal's stadium.

Why make fun of Coastal's stadium, when Charlotte's stadium is a lot smaller? BTW, congratulations to Coastal Carolina for being ranked in both major polls this week.

Was this pre-expansion? Because I really don’t have a problem with that, he did the best with what we could at the time. Now it is a fairly decent stadium.

I’d say our stadium is a lot better than “fairly decent.” We have a darn nice stadium.
But who cares, we are top 25 and the haters can suck on that.

Sorry, new Sun Belt rules, Southern is not allowed to ruin a conference mate's top 25 ranking. Sorry, it's the rules now, and rules are rules.
