not really, 68 teams, everybody ranked gets in

Several don't make playoffs because of automatic qualifiers of lesser conferences.

Idaho took Sac St to OT, on the road. Ranking was well deserved

No, 25 are represented in both FCS and FBS polling

Davis dominated Idaho and were one win away from the playoffs, QB returns. That's why they're in the top-20. As far as rankings go, top-25 isn't irrelevant because wins against other such teams matter. What's the difference between a top 18 and top 19 team? Points in the poll. We're not going back to just a top-10 ranking.

Why would Mercer be ahead of Davis. They lost to every quality team they played last year. Did not make the playoffs

Lan Larison will be a top target just like Gilliam

These percentages are useless at the beginning of a season a

This will shave 10-15 minutes off games, easy.

outliers should not dictate the rules

Uh, yeah

A paltry 8 Big Sky FA signings.
For FA invitees, none from Davis.

you mean at the FBS level with hopes of going to BCS

Not sure what you mean by "initial game notes" since there are no game notes released yet. All times I've seen are 5:00 p.m Pacific, so 7:00 CDT

let's retire this thread -- I'll start a new 2023 preview thread

Our new TE/DE ran a faster 100m than Cal's new WR

Yes

Weber's Eddie Heckard goes to BYU
RJ Martinez goes to Baylor

Bingo. Lost that game about 4 different ways

Davis had the fewest points per game allowed in conference, but not overall in the regular season. You failed to account for teams in the playoffs
