Haven't had the time to be on here every single day 24 hours a day like you pal. I actually have a life and did not want to see all of the terrible football knowledge that would be displayed on here after that game because everything you guys said pretty much told me one thing. You watched the game but didn't watch the game. You have absolutely zero idea what is going on in the plays. You just watch the ball, forget everything else. There's a lot more going on than just where the ball is going and I couldn't stand to read what you guys wrote any longer. It was an insult to my intelligence. We will see where everyone is at come December and the end of November.

This is fun. Two newbies duking it out !! Where's the popcorn ???

Not a newbie big man, been here since the early summer. I just don't live on this site like some people do.

I'm playing the world's smallest violin for your woes.

I just find the inconsistency to the criteria for playoff consideration to be highly annoying.

some schools have to jump high hurdles like IUP almost every year and some schools just waltz in having to do less.

Early summer = Newbie.

I wouldn't call it a travesty.

1. Bryant made it with two losses.

2. Merrimack and Southern Connecticut made it with three losses, but each of them had a loss to a 1-AA, so it didn't count.

• Merrimack lost to Bryant (8-3) and Bentley (6-5).
• Southern Connecticut lost to Bryant (8-3) and Merrimack (8-4).

3. IUP didn't play a single team that made it to the playoffs.

• IUP lost to Millersville (5-6) and Slippery Rock (7-4).

So now you're a hater too?

I posted this in 2006 and whenever someone with a lifelong grudge brings it up, like now. Based on the W/L% and SOS, the three NE10 teams were going to be grouped together, and they got sorted based on Bryant beat Merrimack and Southern Connecticut,and Merrimack beat Southern Connecticut. The playoff criteria was applied very consistently with every school having the same set of hurdles to jump. But only six teams were able to successfully clear them.

Ain't nobody got time to watch the ball. More important topics ...

* Handicap Parking Wars: The Battle of Lock Haven
* Non-tailgaters having to rub shoulders with peasant tailgaters at WCU
* The Shippensburg coaching weekly tirade ... should he stay or should he go
* Ticket prices at Shepherd out of control
* Bloom's Ineptitude
* IUP getting a playoff snub in 1948
* The MEC stinks. Or, does it?
* SRU amazingly left out of the college football Top 4 on Tuesday night
* Lock Haven's 'overpaid' coach getting paid $98,000
* The $tockett Revival ..... $o money
* Lee Harvey Oswald allegedly wrote The IUP Rule before he died. But, it might have been Denny. Behind a patch of bushes. In Dr. Evil's Stadium. During a fourth timeout.
* Any thread not about IUP becoming about IUP within 4 posts. Sometimes less.
* Keir just got picked again
* Man-for-man, Mercyhurst is the best team in America
* Ghostbusters and IUP's shrinking band
* Shepherd just scored on ESU again

Yes, Saturday cannot come soon enough. As for this Saturday's game it should be interesting. As Tort pointed out in his weekly show Edinboro has won their last 4 games and they are "playing as well as anybody in the league."

I think it will show us how good we are and whether we are ready for the playoffs. It's been kinda hard to evaluate IUP's progress the last few weeks.

Edinboro is sneaky good; they might be the only 3 win team in the country with a 4 game winning streak.

Ok, I promise I'll pay closer attention from now on.
