#18 - Coaches Poll
#19 - STATS
#18 - Hero Sports Media Poll
#8 - Massey Ratings/#97 in D-1 (WOW, ahead of SHSU)
#12 - Sagarin Ratings/#112 in D-1 (SHSU 11th at #108)

Biggest takeaway from all of this is the media polls all have UCA ahead of Samford despite losing to them at home. It's like everyone knows that Samford was totally outplayed and are giving UCA the benefit of the doubt.

They have us ahead of Samford and SHSU because UCA played and beaten an FBS conference champion and statistically a 6-2 Samford team while SHSU has played Oklahoma Panhandle State and Texas Southern. SOS must play big into it.

The only pole that matters is the one the Bears get to hang the conference
champion banner on if they keep to the task at hand...

I think that #97 in the Massey Ratings is UVA not UCA

We are not ahead of SHSU but are ahead of Samford in the media polls (not the computer rankings) which is what I was trying to get across. Samford is also 6-1.

SHSU does have a very weak schedule relative to others. The only ranked team they will play is UCA hopefully...

Not sure how to post just an image, but here's the link showing Cent. Arkansas at #97

Ok...fair enough. I googled massey ratings and got a completely different
chart that looked like a spread sheet and The University of Virginia was at
#97 instead of what your link showed...my bad
