Note as well that UND remained 17 in this poll.
Sounds almost like the only people not accepting a legitimate victory are the trolls and fearful.

I am not convinced UND is a top 3 MVFC squad
Who is better? Give us an analysis that makes sense. They had a big 12 team on the brink on the road,as well as a top 5 fcs team. Whose got a better lineup so far? Sdsu has their win over the neighbors, bit thats not collectively more impressive than what und has done.

Most of these coaches who vote haven't seen all of the games-if any. UND is a top ten team in the FCS. They will beat one of the top two teams this season. They'd definitely beat the Kitties.

I am just not sure they can beat 2 or 3 of NDSU, SDSU, Ill St, and So Ill. They could maybe slide into 3.
They will beat 3 of those teams. Book it. They get the bison and rabbits in the alero center
Here’s North Dakota’s MVFC schedule
10/4 @ Northern Iowa
10/11 vs. Youngstown State
10/18 @ Southern Illinois
10/25 vs. Indiana State
11/1 @ South Dakota
11/8 vs. NDSU
11/15 @ Murray State
11/22 vs. SDSU
So they get their two toughest games at home, they don’t play Illinois State, South Dakota is not what we thought they’d be, so really their only tough road game is Southern Illinois. I can’t see them doing any worse than 5-3 in league play so that puts them at 7-5 overall and with their strength of schedule, that might be enough to get them in.

I forgot they don't play everyone since Murray was added. UND might finish top 3, I am just not sold.
They might win the league this year

They haven't played everyone for quite some time, Murray State just switched places with Western Illinois basically.
7-5 is going to be difficult with the Ivy auto bid in there, but the MVFC strength of schedule might save them.

Maybe, just don't see it.

Time will tell.
No chance against SIU. The Salukis are battle tested and extremely proven.
How much you wanna "book it" for? You're saying they're gonna beat THREE of NDSU, SDSU, Ill St and SIU?
I'll take that bet for any amount of $$ you want to wager...

After review, they don't play Ill St.
