And if Louisville would have stayed on the schedule, Im confident it would have been somewhere between 12-16.

If Georgia Southern had scheduled such powers as Miami (OH), Ohio, Akron, and Rhode Island, I'm pretty sure the Eagles would have been ranked as well.

The SBC never ends up ranked because we always play at least one money game in Nonconference...and usually that game is against the SEC. That makes it difficult.

This, Marshall's OOC was a joke. Put two weak MAC teams in place of two P5's and we are ranked at 11-1

Playing 1 and done's are dumb unless you just can't pay the bills. And if you are that strapped for cash you really shouldn't be IA anyway then.

Going on the road to play a million dollar game against Alabama, Auburn, LSU, Mississippi State, Ole Miss and Florida only to get your head kicked in to the tune of 66-0 (Troy UGA score) isn't smart.

There are plenty of schools out there in what is considered the P5s that will do 1-1s. In the next few years Marshall will have 1-1s with NC State and Pitt and will finish up a 1-1 with Purdue next year and Louisville in 2016.

The only reason RI was on the schedule was because Louisville moved the game this year. They were suppose to be in Huntington. But they had to move a game and they weren't moving Kentucky, home game Murrary State or a free win at FIU.

Marshall tried to get a better IAA in and no one in the IAA Top 25 or anyone that thought they had a shot at the playoffs was coming to Huntington to take a beating this year.

As I said our schedule still gave us something no SB team has ever done a Top 25 ranking and Final Top 25 Ranking.

Not dumb if you want any type of respect for your OOC schedule, fan interest, attendance, proving your ranking etc etc

Agree. Unless you do it for a ton of consecutive years probably not going to get any pub or cred. No doubt our conference needs to improve especially the bottom of the conference (Idaho, NMSU, and Idaho) but again we play more SEC games than anyone and it just so happened our worst teams played the most G5 OOC games I believe (including early season App). Now if our best teams played the most G5 and our worst played the most P5 games I doubt we are lowest rated this year. It is just how things fall sometimes when we continue to play two money games a year.

Barring another realignment I believe in about two to three years the Belt is going to be a ton more stable and way stronger and will hang with any G5.

But you are comparing a lot of 11 game seasons to 12 games and with that 12th game mostly FCS schools.

The biggest difference between this season and last year .....

NMST & IDAHO but without those two some of you would have 1 or 2 less wins. But overall that's the biggest difference

But you didn't and all of us could play the IF game...

if we made one more play if we didn't schedule so and so. Marshall played their schedule just as all of us did and with that ended up in the top 25...

those are the fact without the IFSSSSSSSS

Marshall was ranked as a product of their schedule, not as a product of them actually being one of the top 25 teams in the country.

By the end of the year, we had played 6 bowl eligible teams. We also beat an almost ranked NIU by a 29 point margin in our bowl, won the CUSA championship against a good LA Tech team, finished second highest in the G5, finished in the top 25 in two polls, and had a previous ranking by the committee. At some point, you recognize P5 is not necessarily synonymous with quality. Of course, the top programs are always strong, but Marshall was a good team. No, you couldn't just do it. Not saying your team will never get there, but Marshall was no joke this year.

I'm running out of cookies. New low for Marshall fans, coming to SBC boards for approval for the best season they've ever had.

Hopefully the NCAA doesn't taint this one for you guys.

No, we have had undefeated seasons with a top 10 ranking, but nice try. We need more cookies. Of course, Marshall can't compete with the prestige and brand of the Sun Belt teams. For the other poster, I assume you care because you guys desperately brought up Marshall on your board.

Could be worse, they could cheat like UNC or Okie state. I know everyone does it to some degree, but some schools to it to a whole other level.

Marshall needs to sign a home/home with App and GS. I know we have tried but apparently we are too good of a team for Marshall to play.

Yes. You are just too much for us. We played teams ranked higher than both of you, but you are too great. I'll let you guys get back to your dreams and excuses, but you might want to reflect on your reality before attempting to attack the champion of the conference you guys have lobbied to join all season.

CUSA just took several of your teams last season. Other conferences actually felt CUSA was dead simply because of Belt move-ups. Luckily, they were wrong. If everyone tries very hard, you can piece together why those teams left....try, really hard. Keep lobbying Marshall for a one on one. Maybe, one day, we can aspire to your level of greatness and legacy.

One side has reached out to sign and home and home, one team has refused. All while other programs from your conference, the MAC, and MWC have agreed to home and homes. One team is scared of the reality that WEARE back on the same level. Run for now.

Yes. You are just too much for us. We played teams ranked higher than both of you, but you are too great. I'll let you guys get back to your dreams and excuses, but you might want to reflect on your reality before attempting to attack the champion of the conference you guys have lobbied to join all season.

CUSA just took several of your teams last season. Other conferences actually felt CUSA was dead simply because of Belt move-ups. Luckily, they were wrong. If everyone tries very hard, you can piece together why those teams left....try, really hard. Keep lobbying Marshall for a one on one. Maybe, one day, we can aspire to your level of greatness and legacy.

You can always dream. Keep trying and one day you may just reach that goal. 04-cheers

Great logic! I bet there are many other schools terrified to play you with one on one terms. I am equally sure the reason these games aren't their top priority is fear. We haven't played App State in many years, and contrary to your opinion, there really isn't a big fan push to get App on the schedule. You are NOT back on the same level. You are in the same FBS division. No one is running from Happy Appy.
