Wow. Three MAC schools in the bottom 10 (UA, Buffalo and EMU) and two more on the waiting list (CMU and BG).

Could be half of the Bottom Ten next week!! :)

And we play three of the other four this year. Show a little progress and we could at least give the illusion of improving with a much-improved record.

Not surprising that the Zips are still on the list (albeit moved up from #4 to #6) but what is surprising is that Ianellos postgame comment made the Bottom 10 waiting list.Also, this confused me. In the AP coaches poll, in the Others Receving Votes category there is this list:Others receiving votes: Baylor 117, South Florida 97, Iowa 44, Utah 42, Georgia 35, Houston 31, Northwestern 30, Arizona 28, UCF 18, Hawaii 17, North Carolina 15, Michigan 15, NORIL 13, Clemson 13, Southern Miss 12, Air Force 10, Notre Dame 8, Tennessee 5, Brigham Young 4, Maryland 4, Georgia Tech 3, Washington 3, Texas Tech 1, California 1, Cincinnati 1I'm pretty sure NORIL is Northern Illinois. Even when the MAC gets votes, it's disguised. NORIL sounds like a top secret government installation vice a college.

Good news for the MAC, only we and Buffalo are presently in the Bottom 10 w/ Can't State in waiting. EMU is off the list and neither CMU nor BGSU are still on the waiting list.

Or a programming language?

This is the list we should be using to find future opponents...at least for the next few years. Pick BCS schools that make the list and the non-BCS D1 schools. We need to get some positive feelings and a winning attitude developed. Over scheduling is hurting our growth.
I agree wholeheartedly, but too late for that now.And, hello K.e.n.t! :wave:

UA at #4, just ahead (or is that behind?) iCoach's former stomping grounds.
The only consolation - the only other MAC school on the list (even the waiting list) - Can't. Northeast Ohio - proud football traditions (sigh).
Apparently the Wagon Wheel is running out of space to list the winning team. This spy photo of a prototype wheel was recently obtained from K.E.N.T.’s College of Technology.image513.jpg

We can't beat anyone outside the bottom-MAC, or bottom-1-AA right now. There isn't one BCS program that wouldn't be a 20+ point favorite against the Zips right now. Even Minnesota or Indiana.

That's because we stink. And New Mexico, by the way, is the answer to someone's earlier question of whether it is realistic to think a coach who won 1 game in each of his first two seasons would be welcomed back for a third.I notice that our first three November opponents are either on the list (K-ent at 8) or on the waiting list (Miami and Buffalo). Will we make our run in November?

This expert picker is taking the Lobos to beat the Aaahhh-ggies across the street from the Pit on Saturday (NMSU's Hawaiian QB was lost for the season -- after the win over lowly Minnie). I wonder if the UNM Fb team can outdraw the soccer team whose stadium adjoins the LoboBowl?

Thats a little bogus. Didn't North Texas beat Indiana last week? Not that Indy is that good,but we can't beat 'em. New Mexico was dumb to get rid of the previous coach. At least he had some winning seasons. They seem to have the same disease Akron has. The folks in ABQ think the football program can consistently play at a higher level. ABQ is a nice place,just not for football. Great palce for B.ball though. Pretty good soccer team too.
