Top 25 Poll

In a testament to national respect for the MVFC, Youngstown State received 20 votes in the STATS FCS top 25 poll

Feeling a lot of momentum and program optimism after the Missouri State game!

UIW is ranked 18th with their only loss to the Penguins.

As crazy as it sounds, if we had held on to beat WIU, we would be 3 and 2 with a loss at a top FBS school!

I hope that the improvement in all areas continues. With that we should at least have a chance at Indiana State.  Things get tough after that, but who knows. It makes the rest of the year at least interesting and to see how DP's system works or doesn't work.

Schedule is brutal from here on in. Only game we look good against is ISU. Then we play 3 out of 4 in top 7 and one in top 20. We have two wins against top 20 teams and the WIU game was a killer. But teams on the rebuild have setbacks like that. Looking forward to a few upsets!  Week off to get prepared. Beat ISU on the road with some momentum heading into the meat grinder at the end of the season. Feel it coming. A big win coming up!!

Go Guins!
