[Eyes of Old Main]

How does the CAA feel about having three teams listed below San Diego?

[chattanoogamocs]

46. Chattanooga

Chattanooga...toughest dang 2-9 team in the land!!!!! :(

[R.A.]

I just cut and pasted a post from the CAAZone JMU board. I didn't compulate the top 50 I-AA, so I can't vouch for its accuracy! xsmiley_wix

[BDKJMU]

You're missing the 9th (08') Gateway team.

What point are you trying to make with that comment?

[BDKJMU]

What point are you trying to make with that comment?

9-1 USD still ranks below a 3-7 and a 4-6 CAA teams.

Least we forget the Big Sky

[colgate13]

And Holy Cross is four spots better than the Patriot League team that beat them, Fordham.

Rankings... blah.


(not to even mention Albany 5 spots ahead of Colgate, who beat them)

[Houndawg]

2008 Gateway!!!!!!!! Now that's SICK

We're going to have to be careful with the OOC or there could be a lot of 7-4 teams in the league.

[JMU_Fan_2007]

How does the CAA feel about having three teams listed below San Diego?

It means the CAA has 8 teams better than San Diego

[BDKJMU]

Un, that would be 9 teams better than San Diego..xlolx

[Ronin]

(not to even mention Albany 5 spots ahead of Colgate, who beat them)

It's based on record and strength of schedule. You may have risen to the challenge once, but was it done repeatedly?

[Seawolf97]

6-4 Stonybrook at Number 48 pretty good!

[colgate13]

It's based on record and strength of schedule. You may have risen to the challenge once, but was it done repeatedly?
What challenge has Holy Cross risen to that Fordham, that beat them, hasn't?

Similarly, does Albany's win over Fordham, a team that beat Colgate by 3 points, mean they are 5 spots better based on losing to Montana and Hofstra?

Like I said, rankings... blah. Thank god for playoffs, even if Colgate isn't in them.

[HensRock]

2008 Gateway!!!!!!!! Now that's SICK

Is Indiana State leaving the Gateway in 2008?
xconfusedx xconfusedx

[HensRock]

How does the CAA feel about having three teams listed below San Diego?

Don't know. Probably about the same as the SoCon feels about having a quarter of their conference below them.

[walliver]

The only SoCon team not on the list fired their coach.

Good to see you too!

And a great season for your Panthers! :)

[skinny_uncle]

The only Gateway team on the list did not wait until the end of the season. They fired him in week 4.

Hmm... Houndawg, you are a prognasticator.

Uncle Buck would be upset that you didn't mention Northeastern too

[Go Green]

Indeed!

The truth was that I first said "WTF?" when I saw Yale at #14. Hofstra just below them--I knew it was an outdated list. :)

Holy Cross at #27 should have given you a hint too. Who'd a thunk I'd long for the "days gone by of 2007????"
