Do you really think the "committee" researched it well enough to know? It's a bottom line world. Doubt they know we were playing our 5th string RB yesterday. Doubt they know how many starters we lost throughout the season. Not even sure they would care even if they did. Had the UNI game been 33-20, we probably get in.

If we have any DIV 2 schools on the schedule n the next few years we need to get out of those deals ASAP.

Doesn’t matter. It is obvious the MVFC name means shit, either, so I don’t want to hear about being in a great conference helps us. We’re champs in a majority of the FCS leagues.

If scheduling going forward isn’t aimed at 7 FCS wins, anyone involved needs relieved of their positions.

Totally agree. It’s a new day for Indiana State football. No more of this Quincy bullshit. If we’re going to compete for championships and be a big boy program, it’s time to act like it.

I think the conference representative should have had that information readily available. if they even have a discussion then it should have been brought up. We would have beat SEMO.

If we would have beat UNI and MSU we would have been said to have ZERO good wins and been 9-2. at some point 5 MVFC wins are good regardless. we were the team that derailed 2 teams' season.
 
Holy shit we got hosed big time! 7-4 and 3rd place finish in the top to bottom toughest conference in America. Winners of 5 straight with back-ups EVERYWHERE and going from 0-11 last year. I really have no idea why we didn't get in; we have one of the best stories in college football this year along with the results to prove we belong.

If we beat SDSU we are on the bubble for a top 8 seed; If we beat both SDSU and MSU (lost by 3 both games) we are winners of 7 straight, 9-2 record and a top 4 seed...Unbelievable

Incarnate Word, Lamar, Stony Brook, Elon, 6 from the CAA....my goodness

Possible positives:
Fuels us for a run next season
Brings ISU football community together
Keeps Mallory in Terre Haute for a few extra seasons
 
WOW. What a disappointment. I kept waiting for our name to be called next. With that it puts an even bigger chip on our shoulder. Talk about motivation for next year. Next year starts tomorrow. ALL IN!
 
Very disappointing for sure after such a great turnaround. Nothing to be ashamed of. I believe we have something to build on for next year nonetheless.
 
Whatever that is ridiculous...

The season was a huge success regardless of what was decided by that shit as committee. Honestly, had we got selected and won a game or two that would have been awesome - but my feeling about the season would not have changed.

They got dicked over - that shit happens sometimes. Hopefully next time we’re on the other end of this outcome should we be in this position again.

My last negative thought: not that it matters now but I want to know if Mallory WANTED a D2 game or if he wanted a lower FCS game and we couldn’t afford a non home-and-home, buy game.

Positive: next year could be really fun. We can ruin Les Miles return to coaching, and no NDSU means we could realistically tie for the conference title if we stay healthy.
 
Does anyone know who was on the committee? Very disappointing, what is more unbelievable is that every prognosticator had us in.

I'd like to see us beat the crap out of UNI next season. They were basically a .500 team because they beat a doormat, too. We had a 4-2 away record to their 2-4. No way they would have beat us 33-0 late in the season. Disappointing for sure. A lot of teams have to be thankful they won't have to worry about playing a motivated team riding a 5-game win streak.
 
Hats off to Mallory, staff, and those kids. Hold your heads high!

Now to the comittee. Your a f$&@")( joke. Last of all, I hope they use that as motivation to go up to Cedar Falls, IA and beat those Pansies' into a inch of their lives. Maybe then this Roughshot committee will realize the ridiculous mistake they made.
