Phew, that’s finally done. The Kickoff 2005, first conceived back in the first week of April, is posted.
If you have password issues, contact ryan@cwis.biz for help. There are also instructions available on the Kickoff login page regarding that. Hope you’re as thrilled as we are!

Hey, Pat, now you need a new poll: “Does Kickoff 2005 meet with your approval.” The only problem would be limiting the voters to the people who bought a copy.

Great first addition.
Suggestions for improvements::-) (Always asking for more content, you know!)
Adding those years when a school won a National title…
Austin College NAIA-2 National Co-Champs with Concordia MN in 1981.
Texas Lutheran-NAIA 2 in 1974 and 1975.
Or major bowls such as:
W&J’s Rose Bowl appearance back in the 1920’s
Centre College’s Dixie Classic in about 1923 vs the Texas Aggies, the 12th Man game.

Nice Job, but am I missing something? I can’t find U-Mass-Dartmouth listed in the 231 schools. Also You guys have CURRY listed at #89 with a predicted record of 7-3 and FITCHBURG STATE listed at # 115 with a predicted record of 9-0 and winning the league…..What’s Up???

Mass-Dartmouth is #168.
The individual writer’s predictions don’t always match what we think the season’s outcome will be.

Wow, excellent!!!
Not only informative now, but all during the season as well!

Ralph, so noted.
I have a list of the NAIA championships to go with the Stagg Bowls, and that would be both easy and good, to do wins and runner ups.
Should be able to find the link if you want it.

So what schools had the highest “paid subscriptions”?

Thanks Keith!

Excellent resource!

True, Ralph.
And many schools currently “ours” in PAC, ASC, NWC, WIAC and MIAC to name a few, are represented on that list.

You guys did a great job on the Kickoff. I hope this is a tradition I can look forward to like I do with the Dave Campbell’s Texas Football each year.
