ATU!! Let's go!

I was quite impressed... Nothing flashy about ATU but the definition of "steady as she goes". You can always count on them to be a pretty solid team at the DII level. Consistency at its finest.

I might be going out on a limb here.... But I am going to take a wild guess and say they are taking into account more than the last 3 seasons when making these rankings. So when taking into account decades of a body of work I stand by what I said.

If this is based on winning percentage, I'm not sure why they listed LSU over Grambling in LA.

Grambling was a monster back in the day... I had totally forgot about them. Eddie Robinson is a legend.
