4 more teams currently ranked ahead of us have tough tests next week. Could be a top 8 team before selection time.

I actually thought that may happen and semi-called it over on Saturday Blitz: http://saturdayblitz.com/2012/11/09/fcs ... adversity/

Southern Utah beat Eastern Washington. They seem like one of those teams that get up for the really big games.

At any rate - this is great for App but I don't think we get to a seed. Even if other teams lose in the next two weeks, I don't see us moving up much more than wherever we end up Monday.

I feel like the pollsters are typically harder on the Non-Schol or Non-Power league teams that lose...so I'm hoping we move up 4 spots in the latest polls. If we get to 8 this week, then we just need to hope for chaos, upsets, and FBS vs. FCS blowouts on Saturday, and maybe we can sneak into a seed. Not holding my breath, of course.

Hopefully we get some more help next Saturday in hopes we won't have to get on the road as fast should we keep winning.
