Only 11 of the top 40 undefeated.  That seems low for this point in the year, I think? 

Who will make the bigger jump in this week's poll - Keene or Calvin?  Should be a close call - Calvin will be ranked a bit lower but also starts five spots back.  Those seem like the only two teams in the 26-40 range poised to make a massive leap (at least 20 spots) forward this week ...

Maybe it's just me, but even with 8 Seniors returning (3 are 5th yr guys) and a returning All-American, I'm still a little uneasy. We don't have Aigner shooting from beyond the 3 and we don't have Peterson who was a D2 transfer that really changed how CNU looked. We lost a lot of leadership.

We do have a D2 transfer from USC-Aiken and a transfer who was AMCC co-player of the year last year from Medaille. It's obviously way to early to tell if they will have a significant impact.

Let the games begin. Let's see what happens.

Still uneasy? LOL

hahahaha....what can I say? Maybe it's my decades long training of being a Minnesota Vikings fan and watching those 4 SB losses (and 1 NFC championship game loss when 15-1) with pretty amazing teams. It has been ingrained in me to be "uneasy".

[CNU85]

If you want to start with low confidence, you can cheer on my Pointers with me. They were 4-17 last year.

Currently 4-2. So my prediction of a better record has a fairly good chance of coming to fruition!!

So you're saying they probably won't go 0-15 the rest of the way?
