Wasn't Fort Hays fairly competitive recently and now nosedive to 10. Just surprised me, maybe I missed something.

It's like they imploded during covid and never got it back together. Basically the same staff and all. It's a huge headscratcher to everyone who follows the MIAA.

Is this the first year NW Missouri has not been the preseason pick in a while? Or was Pitt the favorite to start last year, as well?

First time in a long while. Everyone thought Pitt was at least a year away last year. They were 3rd or 4th.

Roster looked like it was mid tier on talent last year and just soft physically which doesn’t bode well in the MIAA. I can’t explain it. We’ve lost a couple of position coaches — notably a QB coach who’s now Hc at Pueblo and a dline coach that moved up to SFA but otherwise HC and coordinators have been consistent since the solid runs of 2017-2019

Poor Upper Iowa....New conference, same spot in the standings. 2nd to last. Hope the Peacocks can surprise some GLVC fans

Wish the best for the pretty birds. Guessing they're tired of NSIC teams laying half of a hundred on them so often.

They could start by changing their name. Gotta think the opponenets have some fun with that name.

But you'd lose that awesome logo. Easily one of the best in the D2 landscape
