I though the The Sports Network poll was the most followed one.
I know there is hundreds of polls and some include SBU in the
top 25 but I've seen TSN used widely and they still don't have
us ranked.

TSN is generally regarded as a horrible poll by those in the
know, Sports Network as well. Neither police their poll as well
as AnyGivenSaturday, and big FCS fans ignore the Coaches Poll
completely.
In my eyes, the only true poll is AGS.

I'll take that into consideration next time I look at the polls
Redwyn. I don't know much about the reliability of the Polls.
Thanks for the info.
Lets spread the word on the game guys. We need everyone out
there this November 19th! Seriously!

I really don't understand why Liberty is ranked so far ahead of
us. Robert Morris isn't a better win than Lafayette.

Polls are primarily based on reputation. Liberty has earned
some respect in recent years and SBU is earning it right now. I
think you'll find yourselves very pleasantly surprised by how
you are treated by pollsters next year if you win on Saturday.
We're paying attention and seeing that you guys deserve a
ranking. Not everyone follows the Big South as closely as we
do.

Liberty has been ranked just about every week from the past 4
seasons. What has that gotten us? Nothing. We would gladly trade
in all of our rankings, including our current one, for a win
Saturday. At this level, rankings mean very, very little.

With your QB and top receiver graduating this year, are
expectations high for next year (staying in the Top 20) or are
Liberty fans preparing for a let down?

I know we have possibly the biggest game in Stony Brook history
coming up, but the 2012 Stony Brook team is going to be NICE. I
think we return 16 starters and something like 35 players from
our two deep.

Our expectations will stay high. We fully expect to compete for
and win another conference championship next year. Yes we lose
alot at our skill positions - QB, 3 of our top 4 WRs, TE, but we
also return most everything else. All of our RBs will be back. 4
of 5 starting OLine, 9 of our 11 starters on Defense. Our
understudy at QB is a RJR and has had a lot of snaps over his
career. He's been Mike Brown's backup for 3 years now. We also
have 2 QBs redshirting this year. One is "the next Mike Brown"
and the other is a tall, big white kid who turned down a scholly
offer to Wake and other BCS programs. It will be an interesting
battle to see who wins the full time job next year and moving
forward.
Our conference schedule next year:
SBU - home
GW - home
CSU - home
As you all know we haven't lost at home in conference since
2006. We don't plan on starting anytime soon. I don't see either
GW or CSU coming in and beating us. You guys will be a
challenge, but with us at home I like our chances. Just look at
the results from your previous 2 trips to Lynchburg.
CCU - away
VMI - away
PC - away
CCU will always be tough down on the beach. I'm not worried
about VMI. And PC will be solid, but we will still be favored
and should win.
Hard to say we won't expect to win another conference
championship even if we are in a reloading type of year. A lot
of people said 2009 would be the year to knock us off.
Anyways, there's plenty of time to talk about next year during
the offseason. Huge game for both teams and the conference
coming up on Saturday. I've heard it referred to as the biggest
game in conference history.

By my count, Liberty returns 14 starters and 30 from the 2 deep.
