Top 25 Votes for UNT???

[outoftown]

Well, SL is a voter on the coaches poll. Where do you think he has UNT?

[EagleMBA]

I have always wondered if the voters have to recuse themselves if they have a conflict of interest.

I'm fairly certain this is the first time I've ever seen North Texas get votes.  Did we get any in 2013? 

I stand corrected.  We got two votes in the final 2013 poll.

I wasn't around for Dickey, but I just looked up the final 2013 coaches poll and we got 2 votes.

kinda of suprised South Carolina got 4 votes, beat costal carloina and lost the next game.  

[ChristopherRyanWilkes]

Fairly certain this is the most votes we've received since returning to FBS. We did get 2 votes in the coach's poll after the Heart of Dallas win and 1 AP vote before our New Orleans bowl loss in 2003. Don't know about any others. Certainly never this early in the season.

Did we take Arkansas States place?

[ChristopherRyanWilkes]

Also, in no way putting the horse in front of the cart here, but it took Western Michigan going 6-0 to crack into the Top 25 in 2016 (#24 going into week 7, steadily climbed from there). They are a good reference point, as they were probably about as respected as we were going into the season. UCF got into the Top 25 earlier, but they had the advantage of being a well-respected program in the eyes of the voters, and being in a better conference.

Dickey and Mac Brown if I remember correctly.

[CMJ]

I think that puts us at 40 & 42 if one were to extrapolate out rankings after the Top 25.

6th highest ranked G5 so far in both rankings. Behind UCF, BYU, Boise State, USF, and San Diego State. We have much easier schedule ahead of us than any of those teams.

[oldguystudent]

Realtime RPI has us at 47 with projected losses against #48 LaTech, #83 UAB, and #46 FAU.  

Do they update the projected win/loss column as the season goes or is that from pre-season? 

[Cooke County Kid]

I like the way things are going, just keep on winning week after week.

BEAT Liberty

GO MEAN GREEN!!!!

[Silent Eagle]
