2-0 And Without A Poll Vote
No votes for UMaine football in the national poll - even after a win over FBS UMass (24-14) on Saturday. That win put the Bears at 2-0 but apparently it is not impressive enough for voters who take part in the weekly national poll.
The SPORTS NETWORK poll lists the top-25 in FCS plus other teams that receive votes. Another poll, called the Coaches Poll give Maine 2 votes and the Bears opponent this week, Bryant College(2-0) one vote.
