Is Elon ahead of W&M?

The more the season progresses and bodies of work develop, head to head records take on less weight. For instance, if by some chance SDSU loses to Missouri St to end the regular season, we aren’t slotting the Bears ahead of the Bunnies.
Yes on USD. I have Elon slightly behind W&M because of their loss to Gardner-Webb and I don't think GWU is top 25 worthy now. I will put Elon in the top 15 though if they handle NCCU by 10 or more. I do want to see how Elon responds coming off such a big win. That is another reason why I won't put Harvard in my top 15 because I want to see how they respond. If both of them win next weekend then I will push them both up a good bit.

I fully agree on the head to head meaning less as you go. In the first 4 or 5 weeks it carries a ton of weight but by November it does not carry the same weight.
