election Committee's Top 10 - 11-3-16
1. Jacksonville St
2. Sam Houston St
3. Eastern Washington
4. North Dakota St
5. James Madison
6. The Citadel
7. Richmond
8. Chattanooga
9. Charleston Southern
10. Central Arkansas
 
Apparently they don't look at strength of schedule...NDSU and EWU should be ahead of Sam Houston and JSU...and realistically NDSU should be ahead of EWU...
 
sam houston has a very easy schedule! Ndsu and EWU def should be 1/2, it is a toss up for who should be one! I think ewu has been playing better since their Head to head match up and beat a better FBS team.

I would like to see this group get seeded. If UM can get its act together and get on a roll, they could knock off a bunch of those teams.

NDSU has beaten two of those top 10 teams. What's the highest ranked team SHSU has beaten. Was excited to see this. Now it's just as witthless as the Top 25 poll.

Its amazing to listen to the FBS talking heads discuss how important SOS is, which is why UDUB is on the outside looking in, but then the FCS is just garbage when it comes down to polls and rankings.

Doesn't matter. If it's as you say, JSU and SHSU will get beat by a tougher opponent and you and NDSU will be left standing as the top two remaining seeds anyways...

LMFAO. Replace UM with NDSU and you guys would be beside yourself at this. It's a complete fucking joke. Look at the wins NDSU have this year. No comparison to any other team.

Not sure what your beef is ... or maybe you're just generally pissed and don't have any specific eGriz beef. I think the general feeling here on eGriz (it sure is for me) is that that list is, indeed, "a complete f***[*] joke."

What makes it worrisome is: WTF are they using as criteria to build the list? It sure as Hell does not seem to include any rational SOS ... which they've claimed was their "be all and end all."

Scary, because nobody below the very top (say, 4-6) has any idea where they stand. Totally worthless. But it's the NCAA. It would be just plain stupid to expect anything that made sense from a committee that outfit put together.
 
This is all just another signal about what joke the FCS, and the actual attention it gets. Not even those who are paid to care give two shits.

What are we doing at this level again?

Ya..the show today was a joke, and the rankings are even more of a joke. The vast majority of the college football world knows nothing about the FCS, apparently neither does the FCS playoff committee...

The Griz should look at every opportunity to move up to the FBS, I wish EWU was in a position to do so...
 
I'm kind of wondering if these new public releases from the committee will create a situation similar to the polls, in that, each week will basically stay the same unless a loss happens and the surrounding teams then move accordingly. That would be too bad. I hope the committee judges the seasons as wholes (like in the past) and if there is an impressive enough win later in the year then it could be enough to leapfrog a team in front of them that keeps winning but against weaker opponents.

If these rankings hold true, you are never going to get good non conference games going forward, which would be a shame.

I know, its ridiculous...You won't see the UM/EWU/NDSU matchups anymore because they do those teams no good...Hopefully it will work itself out by selection day...
