Official 2007 NCAA Football Season

Thus is why no Hawaii QB will ever have hesiman recognition.

[ACCBiggz]

Exactly DMN, and what radio programs are saying teams are scared of other teams, that's ridiculous. It has to do with the money to go out there, the jetlag of their team, etc. None of which is Hawaii's fault, but that is the problem they run in to.

Hawai'i's good, but they wouldn't be anything more than a mid-level Pac 10 team.

[DMN in the House]

Except the Pac 10 is better than the Big XII.

[ACCBiggz]

Depends on which year, it changes. But it's a better analogy because it'd be the same thing regardless which conference.

[Vendetta]

He's on the list, but lets face it..he won't win it because Hawaii doesn't play anybody...not there fault I woudn't think it be fair if everyone they played (big time teams) they would have to be away games...

[ACCBiggz]

He has a chance, it just depends on how he performs week in and week out. If they lose a game he is done, but that's normally the case with most winners. The problem he has is his stats, to me at least, are bloated. Granted the INT stat with how much he throws is impressive.

I just thought about how sweet it would be for App St to replace Duke in the ACC.

[ACCBiggz]

Yeah, real sweet.

Anyway, App. State can be voted into the AP Top 25. It's possible because of their voting rules.

“Appalachian State Rule” Makes Mountaineers Eligible for AP Poll

The Associated Press announced Thursday that, beginning next week, all Division I teams will be eligible to receive votes in the AP top 25 college football poll.

App. State simply getting into Division-I ball would be a great move. I'm in NC, so seeing a team like App State take out the #5 team in the nation is a huge thing.

[ACCBiggz]

They are a D-1 team, and have been.

[Tarheels.]

Aren't they a I-AA team?

[ROC]

Aren't they a I-AA team?

[Tarheels.]

Well yes, that was a given. I was insinuating a move up to Division I-A ball.

Probably my fault for not outright saying that in the first place.

[ROC]

Yeah, though, isn't the school itself not big enough yet to qualify despite how good the team is?

And knowing the NCAA, they'll probably feign the thought of moving them up, only to wait five years for the possibility of more teams doing it...then maybe doing something to move them up.

[Tarheels.]

What are the D-I A requirements? The school itself is beginning to grow in not only popularity but it's getting a lot more students. Quite a few people I know are going to App who I never thought would. Plus a win over Michigan isn't going to hurt the recruiting.

[ROC]

My best guess is...be bigger than the University of Buffalo. :/

[Vendetta]

App. Is a former dvision 1-A school.

[VerbalPuke]

Man, this Michigan defense looks bad. This is going to be a long season if the defense is like this the whole season. Oregon is moving at will, and hell, Michigan's offense is shooting themselves in the foot.
