Which is your least favorite G5 team?
« on: September 04, 2025, 11:38:01 PM »
We know your least favorite P5 team, it's your rival. Duh. 

Who is that G5 team that really rubs you the wrong way? 

I guess I'd have to go with Oregon State at this point. After decades of dragging the OSU name through mud, just when you didn't think that they could possibly get any worse, poof. They don't even have a seat at the P5 table. 

What about you? UCF and their "NC"? Liberty? Eastern Michigan?... 

Having a little trouble deciding between Appalachian State and Toledo? :098:

I guess mine is Boise.  
As a big stats guy, when you look at the top teams and highest-ranked teams over the past 30 years, you've got your bluebloods/kings...and Boise.
They make every 'top' list, being a  G5, Johnny-come-lately.

And don't get me wrong, what they did is great.  Respect.  But they grew their program on high school schedules....as a high school type program.  Tallest midget.  Great.  Good for you.

But stay out of the top-ranked rankings, please.  You do not belong.

UCF and BYU are not G5.

They are A2 (Almost 2).

There is no such thing as the P4.

It is P2 and A2.

Yeah, that's true. The Big 12 teams are ineligible for this. Pac 12 on the other hand....

PAC 12 = Mountain West.

I wonder if they will ever try to get to 12 again.

It feels weird to put Oregon State on there, since they were technically some kind of power team until not that long ago.

Also, Liberty for me, even if they do, I have a coach with an offense I generally enjoy.

This exercise also made me realize that there has probably been at least one point when I have had a bit of a soft spot for almost every G5 team just because they were fun.

Yeah I have no beef with the G5.  Live and let live.

Notre Dame. 

They can't even get into a G5 conference.
