Griz get a little love with the bye.

#6 EWU plays #24 NAU Rocket man sure cries a lot when things don't go his way. QB change against UNI worked last week we will see if it was a good long term decision. Go Jacks!!!

Cal Poly isn't getting much love they will be plenty motivated to thump the Griz. We will see how getting extra week to prepare helps. This is as good of a test on our team as we will see in the regular season, well balanced disciplined CP team. Go Griz!!!

1. North Dakota State (3-0, 0-0 Missouri Valley) Previous Ranking: 1 Last Week’s Result: 23-21 win over Iowa The Bison imparted their will on FBS No. 13 Iowa with a 239-34 advantage in rushing yards and possessing the football for 36 minutes, 40 seconds worth of game clock. Cam Pedersen’s game-ending 37-yard field goal stretched NDSU's winning streak over FBS opponents to an incredible six games. Next Opponent: No. 15 Illinois State (Oct. 1)

2. Eastern Washington (2-1, 0-0 Big Sky) Previous Ranking: 4 Last Week’s Result: 34-30 win over then-No. 7 Northern Iowa Without injured wide receiver Cooper Kupp, the Eagles found a way to win a top-10 matchup with special teams and quarterback Reilly Hennessey coming off the bench. Bravo, Beau Baldwin and EWU coaching staff. Next Opponent: at No. 23 Northern Arizona (Sept. 24)

3. Sam Houston State (2-0, 1-0 Southland) Previous Ranking: 3 Last Week’s Result: 44-31 win over Lamar Sure, quarterback Jeremiah Briscoe, running back Corey Avery and the offense grabbed the headlines again, but the Bearkats defense held Lamar 2,000-yard rusher Kade Harrington to 76 yards and no touchdowns on 25 carries. Next Opponent: at Houston Baptist (Sept. 24)

4. Jacksonville State (2-1, 0-0 Ohio Valley) Previous Ranking: 5 Last Week’s Result: 27-26 win over then-No. 15 Coastal Carolina With Auburn transfer Roc Thomas racking up 144 yards rushing, the Gamecocks had a more balanced offense in earning the big win over Coastal Carolina. Next Opponent: at Liberty (Sept. 24)

5. Montana (2-0, 0-0 Big Sky) Previous Ranking: 6 Last Week’s Result: Idle The Griz surely need the extra week to prepare for Cal Poly in their Big Sky opener. The Mustangs and their triple option offense have split the last six meetings with UM. Next Opponent: at No. 13 Cal Poly (Sept. 24)

6. Chattanooga (3-0, 1-0 Southern) Previous Ranking: 10 Last Week’s Result: 21-14 win over Furman It took until the Mocs’ 12th quarter of action, and a total of 171 minutes, 51 seconds, but they surrendered their first points of the season. Maybe not No. 6-worthy yet, but, hey, it seemed like everybody ahead of them lost. Next Opponent: Samford (Sept. 24)

7. Northern Iowa (1-2, 0-0 Missouri Valley) Previous Ranking: 7 Last Week’s Result: 34-30 loss to then-No. 4 Eastern Washington UNI let a 24-7 halftime lead slip away on the red turf at Eastern Washington.

8. Stony Brook (2-1, 1-0 CAA) Previous Ranking: Unranked Last Week’s Result: 42-14 win over then-No. 2 Richmond With wins over two ranked teams (North Dakota and Richmond) and only a loss to Temple, the Seawolves deserve the biggest jump in the power poll. Apparently, they have an offense this season. Next Opponent: Sacred Heart (Sept. 24)

9. Richmond (2-1, 0-1 CAA) Previous Ranking: 2 Last Week’s Result: 42-14 loss to Stony Brook The lopsided loss to Stony Brook may have shown running back Gordon Collins’ season-ending hip injury has left the Spiders without a true No. 1. They managed only 32 yards on 20 carries. Next Opponent: No. 22 Colgate Sept. 24)

10. Western Illinois (2-0, 0-0 Missouri Valley) Previous Ranking: 12 Last Week’s Result: Idle Just sayin’: The Fighting Leathernecks have held the ball for nearly 25 more minutes than their first two opponents (good ones in Eastern Illinois and Northern Arizona), while opponents have nearly a 19-minute advantage on 0-3 Northern Illinois Next Opponent: at Northern Illinois (Sept. 24)

11. James Madison (2-1, 0-0 CAA Football) Previous Ranking: 11 Last Week’s Result: 56-28 loss to North Carolina After scoring 136 points in their first two games, the Dukes had 21 after three first-quarter drives against UNC. They managed only seven more points the rest of the game. Next Opponent: at Maine (Sept. 24)

12. Charleston Southern (1-2, 0-0 Big South) Previous Ranking: 14 Last Week’s Result: Idle Head coach Jamey Chadwell and the Buccaneers used the bye week to clear their heads from off-the-field mistakes. They will start defense of their Big South title on the road. Next Opponent: at Monmouth (Sept. 24)

13. Cal Poly (2-1, 0-0 Big Sky) Previous Ranking: Unranked Last Week’s Result: 38-31 win over then-No. 9 South Dakota State With 7.5 yards per carry, the Mustangs carved up the Jackrabbits, who did the chasing.

14. South Dakota State (1-2, 0-0 Missouri Valley) Previous Ranking: 9 Last Week’s Result: 38-31 loss to Cal Poly Funny, but head coach John Stiegelmeier squad’s most impressive performance might be its season-opening loss at TCU. Next Opponent: No. 10 Western Illinois (Oct. 1)

15. Illinois State (2-1, 0-0 Missouri Valley) Previous Ranking: 8 Last Week’s Result: 24-21 loss to Eastern Illinois Will the real Redbirds team please stand up – either the one that knocked off Northwestern or the one that lost to unranked rival Eastern Illinois the next week. OK, the results suggest that might be the real Redbirds team. Next Opponent: at Indiana State (Sept. 24)

16. The Citadel (3-0, 2-0 Southern) Previous Ranking: 16 Last Week’s Result: 31-24 win over Gardner-Webb All three Bulldogs wins are by seven points or less, but they’re finding a way.

17. Villanova (2-1, 1-0 CAA Football) Previous Ranking: 20 Last Week’s Result: 40-21 win over then-No. 19 Towson ‘Nova won a matchup that could go a long way in securing an at-large playoff bid.

18. Youngstown State (2-1, 0-0 Missouri Valley) Previous Ranking: 18 Last Week’s Result: 38-6 win over Robert Morris Robert and Morris could have provided double teams, but it wasn’t going to stop the Penguins’ pass rush. Seven different players had sacks in the easy victory. Next Opponent: South Dakota (Oct. 1)

19. William & Mary (2-1, 0-0 CAA Football) Previous Ranking: 17 Last Week’s Result: 35-10 win over Norfolk State An injury to running back Mikal Abdul-Saboor opened the door for Kendell Anderson last season.

20. Coastal Carolina (2-1 FCS Independent) Previous Ranking: 15 Last Week’s Result: 27-26 loss to then-No. 5 Jacksonville State The Chanticleers went through four quarterbacks in their back-and-forth loss to Jacksonville State because starter Josh Stilley was knocked out in the second quarter.

21. Eastern Illinois (2-1, 0-0 OVC) Previous Ranking: Unranked Last Week’s Result: 24-21 win over then-No. 8 Illinois State Head coach Kim Dameron didn’t have a non-conference win in his first two seasons.

25. McNeese (1-2, 0-1 Southland) Previous Ranking: 13 Last Week’s Result: 31-28 loss to Stephen F. Austin The Cowboys didn’t lose a game last season until the second round of the playoffs in December. They will leave September with at least two defeats. Next Opponent: at Incarnate Word (Sept. 24)

collegesportmadness has Griz 5 EWU 6 and NAU 24

What ever the poll Cal Poly isn't getting much respect. Griz win over Cal poly should shut up some of the doubters.
 
How is Cal Poly still unranked?

They are definitely deserving of one. Barely lose to FBS Nevada, and then beat USD and SDSU. I don't really understand. O wells. This weekend will show the pollsters I'm sure

Because of last years results and reputation. When you don't start in the polls it is hard to get in them. People do not like to be proven wrong.
