Minnesota #1? Why not?!

How do you figure?

Clearly you've never watched Leupke play.

Clearly you've never watched Leupke play.

What is there to see? Best team NDSU has played against is Arizona, the 6th WORST(#125th) Rush Defense in the FBS and he got an underwhelming 115 yards rushing on 18 attempts.

In 5 games he's only gained 401 yds with a 6.9 yds per rush avg, vs 4 fcs Ds. 0-5 Drake, 2-3 NCA&T, 2-2 YSU, 4-1 S Dak & Zona.

In 4 games Ibrahim's gained 567 yds with a 6.4 yds per rush avg, vs 3 fbs Ds, & playing only 2/3rds of all 4 games. In total he got those 567 yards in approximately 10 quarters. He's basically averaging over 200 yards rushing every 4 quarters, 226.8 if my estimation of 10 quarters is accurate.

I have in fact, watched NDSU's game vs Zona.

And more importantly, I've seen Ibrahim play, vs OSU for one. Have you seen Ibrahim play?

Would like to have seen him last Saturday, but he wisely decided to avoid the L by sitting out.

Probably wouldn't have been a loss if he had played.

Only other possibility is a forfeit by the Goofers. Minnesota was outclassed.

I've yet to see you mention anything that actually matters.

What would matter? The AP or Coaches Polls?

 

[fredsdeadfriend]

And?

The FPI rating has UMn rated better than Oregon.

 

[michaeljordan_fan]

What would matter? The AP or Coaches Polls?

Those at least have credibility.

 

[fredsdeadfriend]

And?

The Kelley Ford Ratings and the TeamRankings Predictor both rate UMn better than Oregon.

 

[fredsdeadfriend]

Those at least have credibility.

No, actually, they don't have much credibility. It's been known for a very long time almost none of the coaches actually do their own voting, and thank goodness they don't, when would they have time to pay enough time to do their polls justice?

And the AP poll has been falling out of favor as people have figured out the voters must not pay much attention to college football. It's obvious the Committee doesn't care what the AP or Coaches polls think.
