Ok, thought there might be a special axe to grind that I was unaware of.

BTW, Is the Seahorse still open over there in Johnson City?

How in the hell does NW continue to be ranked in top 25 with 5 losses and look at their abysmal team stats..... ridiculous.
KICK ASS!!!

Why would you expect us to be ranked? We are a G5 team who is not a media darling yet. Army is there because everyone pulls for Armed Forces. We must beat someone to earn it.

You want to know the best way to get in the rankings? Beat UNC to remain undefeated and go on a high scoring rampage of the SBC. If we go 1-0 every week next year we will be ranked and it won't matter what the writers think right now. We have enough name now that we will be ranked a little quick than normal and only fall if we lose.

I totally agree with you. I have never argued we should be ranked. What made me laugh was the way the author had to look for P5 schools to rank. Thinking the article is ridiculous wasn't a backdoor way of arguing for us.

I don't know if it is still there or not but boy what fun it was to drive over there and buy liquor at 18 legally. The stories I could tell.

I agree, a complete joke! I'm not stumping for us to be ranked in this; but how in the world is the author going to include the likes of Nebraska? The entire article is a farce.
FREQS AND GEEKS!

Oh wow, The Seahorse! I had to stop what I was doing for a while and reminisce just now. I loved those trips to Johnson City. I just Googled it and could not find The Seahorse in Johnson City, TN...but there looks to be an adult club named "Fuzzy Holes" it seems near that same location now according to my Google machine. Hey, maybe some of those ETSU girls we used to party with at The Seahorse run that now.
