They asked me a ton of questions about JMU -- they were the rival I ranked the highest. Doesn't make sense to me to ask you about someone not ranked as your top rival.

Data point: I ranked JMU highest but got questions about #2 UR.

Also answered as a GB Packers fan...ranked Vikings as top rival (barely) but questions were about second-ranked Bears. After completing, I was able to see how GB fans (as well as fans of other teams) voted. I hope this feature is available for the FCS survey when all is said and done.

I got asked a bunch of questions about Eastern Illinois, I assumed it just shot you a random team to use a a basis for comparison, but now I'm wondering if I accidentally misclicked/labeled them as a rival

I wish the academics conducting the survey had asked another series of questions along the lines of:

Are the rivals you selected on your favorite school's schedule? annually? on a home and home basis?
Are the rivals you selected on your favorite school's basketball schedule? annually? on a home and home basis?
Is it even plausible/feasible for the rivals you selected to be on your favorite school's schedule? annually? on a home and home basis?

Lots of "no's" received in response to the above questions essentially suggests one's favorite school is stuck with former rivals and in need of new ones.

Am hoping the soul searching underway at the College is taking above into consideration.
