This is really huge! A win over Alabama later this week might be enough to get us some mid major madness votes!

Jacks are #8 in the college insiders poll. Voted on by mid-major coaches.

Thanks for posting.

Wow. That was quick. I knew we would likely move into the poll , my guess was 15-16 or 17. Not #8. Wow. Axe 'Em Jacks

I know that someone on here knows the Mid-major Madness guys right? I don't understand them. They changed their Twitter profile to Keller sporting the AxeEm jacks and have 2 write ups on their site. Then I listened to their first podcast after SFA upsets Duke and they don't talk about the SFA win, if they did it was less than 15 seconds since that is how much apple podcast skips ahead. Norlander and Parrish talked more about the SFA game than the podcast about mid-majors.

They are loser wannabes.

In a way I KIND OF understand their stance about not overreacting. We did go from losing to Rutgers to beating Duke, and we did have a straight up awful season last year. Not decent season. It was a garbage fire. 1 win will get you noticed and I think them leaving us out of even the 25 spot is crazy, but I do also agree that we need to keep it going and beat Alabama and have a few more convincing wins before people will take us seriously.

I've said it before, our history doesn't mean a lot to anyone but us. Last year is the most recent taste anyone has of SFA so every win we have over a high major is gonna be an upset in everyone but our eyes.

And note that the first loss we take this year from here on out, be it to Alabama or a SLC opponent, will completely take away all of our credibility with the rest of the nation and our chances of being ranked. It happened with Underwood when we lost to I believe Corpus Christi. This year is gonna remain tough for us because the entire country is looking down on us, and the only legit way we are going to be ranked in the AP or coaches poll will be to not lose any games. At all.

We need a huge season this year to get us back on the national radar and then next season we can talk about the country respecting SFA. Then the margin for error will open back up.
