Don't the national publications have SB at 4 or 5? Why no love for the Seawolves?


SBU has been given a lot of attention over the past two years. They had a good year last year but in the end they did not get it done. They did not have a very strong strength of schedule (not their fault). Notre Dame, Florida and Northwestern all had down years. SBU beat some good programs but they did not beat good teams. Florida had 6 losses, Northwestern had 7 losses and Notre Dame had 9 losses. Their schedule is not very difficult this year either. I think they are loaded with talent but if you want to be ranked in the top 10 you have to play and beat good teams. They have not done anything to suggest that they should be ranked in the top 5.
