I used to care about the polls but not anymore. The only spot that will ever matter is being #1. We are in the best conference so if we can unseat NDSU, it can be done.
Until then, let's just go from week to week, ignoring the rankings, and just WINNING!

Polls do not matter, all that matters is getting chosen for the playoffs.

But the polls go a LONG way to determine who gets chosen for those peskly old playoffs!

Really it is only the coaches poll that counts. In that case, I want to start the season as low as possible. It is important to be climbing late in the season, where we have been losing 3 out of the last 4 and falling.
I mean, we could lose a couple of games and as long as we demonstrate progress ...then have a shot at the post-season. Not that there is anything good about any loss, but I also feel that it is important that we stop losing to the teams above us in the standings, as that just makes YSU the conference dividing point when it comes to selections.
If we had to lose 3 conference games ...we would be better off losing to an MVFC bottom-dweller & 2 of three conference top-3 clubs, than losing to all of the top-3. It should not be that way, but it is. That would mean we have a record good enough to get in the play-off field and we have a win over a play-off bound MVFC club. Yet we would have the same record either way. If we can knock off any of the top MVFC clubs ...the selection committee has to take us more seriously.
