Valley Football Players of the Week - Oct. 31

I'm not sure if they are either--FWIW Sagarin has RMU @#232 and MSU 7 points higher and ranked #224--it should be a blowout but should not be taken for granted--that's why they play the game.

5dimes:  YSU -28

How about #2 ISUr being the 1 point dogs @ the bunnies?

7/10 Valley teams now have 4 or more losses.  IMO, a 5 loss team from the Valley should get a post-season invite.  6-5 in the MVFC = 7-4 in the BSC or CAA and is >/= 8-3 in all other conferences.

I agree--Indy State made it in with 5 losses last year so it is possible.

We need to win all of our games and we need to win them convincingly.  The reason is that if UNI wins out and has the same record they stand a better chance of making the playoffs with wins over Eastern Washington and Cal Poly (check that) vs Robert Morris and Saint Francis. 

At least that is bow I see it

last year was a year with an extra game. That is not the case this year. 5 losses will never see a bid unless it is a conference champ. Yes I believe all conference champs should make it, regardless of record, schedule or strength.

Good point--UNI making the playoffs is always a waste--would rather see any other MVFC team in there.
