NSU only signed like 12 players as we didn't lose but maybe 6 guys from last years team...that is why we are ranked so low. IMO.

I believe the article said for in-state recruiting. La Tech received an A+. LSU rated only an A but yet had a top 3 class nationally according to many polls on recruiting. Go figure. I seriously doubt Tech recruited better La. talent than LSU. Sportswriters and their rankings and polls are about like 'roids, they are mostly irritating and won't go away!

The article in Louisiana Football Magazine took into account each school's entire recruiting class, both in-state and out-of-state. The letter grade was given relative to each school's level of play and expectations. It's not an apples to apples comparison. The actual numerical ranking (i.e. 1-12) is an apples to apples comparison, that's why LSU was ranked number one over us and La Tech even though we had a higher letter grade.

But like I've said before, recruiting rankings have no significance other than to provide message board fodder.

This isn't a picture but I did find this highlight video (Felton Huggins) from one of our games in 2004. It's not great quality but it gives you some idea of what our stadium is like.

Nice job making a highlight reel out of UAM.
Somehow we actually lost to UAM in 2004.

Please don't try to refresh my memory as I do remember; I'm just trying to forget.

Unfortunately I remember that game too!

As I recall, that was a scrappy UAM team. Their QB kept them in the game by scrambling around and pulling plays out of his behind all night. We ended up winning 46-32 but they made us work for it.

UAM has a long history of scrappy QBs who can scramble. They might have the highest ratio of "football results to dollars invested" than any other Arkansas college over a long period of time....glad they have not had UAF's budget. They may not be at the top anymore but they do not go on the field thinking they will lose.

GoBears!!
