Still at #6. https://nevadasportsnet.com/news/re...en-north-dakota-state-gets-first-massive-test

Not quite pillow fight of the week stuff yet though as we have Northern Illinois and UTEP in this league as well. Plus Nevada is in the bottom 10.

College football Bottom 10 after Week 5: Michigan is back for more

Apparently the Wolverines were so comfortable on our dubious list last week, they decided to stick around.

This has got to be one of the worst FBS conferences in history of college football.

Some really bad football is being played pretty much everywhere outside of the Power 4 conferences.

Multiple years of NIL and unlimited transfers is starting to really concentrate all of the talent at the top. As bad as this Wyoming team is, they have a legitimate chance of finishing somewhere near the middle of the conference. And as bad as the MWC is this year, there are actually even worse conferences out there (MAC and CUSA).

So the question remains: Why can’t Wyoming be one of the best teams in an extremely weak conference?

So why are we even doing this anymore! Thank you athletic dept admins in sinking the FB program.

The successful / rising FCS programs -- NDSU (this year), and i suspect if Montana, Montana State, Illinois State, North Dakota and even Harvard moved up they are all actually better than these sinking long time bottom feeder FBS programs. I think it's more about culture and attitude than money or high paid coaches and administrators. Not sure why Sac State paid $5 million to move up. They had no culture of success.

they can be. it's not a firing problem, it's a hiring problem.

Tom Burman. Bad leadership. Small thinkers. No accountability. Bad culture
