East Region Fan Poll

Made for interesting conversation.....plus it's always fun when LD calls someone crazy.

Who are YOU calling crazy?

Why has everyone fallen out of love with Cortland?

Cortland beat everyones darling, Rowan.....then lost close games to undefeated Kean & a 1 loss Montclair.  Cortland looks like a good, quality team to me, yet they can't get a single vote in the ERFP?

I had Cortland at 10 but then looked at Union and thought they were slightly better at this point.  I also wonder why I am the only one voting for Sasquatch.  I have them at 7 right now.

I had Susquehanna at 10 as well.

KS, I'm with you on both fronts.

Also, why does Rowan deserve to be the ERFP's #6 team?  Rowan stomps terrible teams, yet hasn't beaten a team with a winning record.....Rowan the bully of the East, has yet to prove any thing against a decent team.  How #6 or even Top 10 for that matter?

I have Rowan at 8 for lack of finding a fitting team.  a 2 OT loss to my #4 Kean I think justifies it.

Maybe, but they have yet to even beat an average team......look at their victories, brutal squads.

I have Rowan at 6 because I think they are a better team than the rest of the usual suspects, I have Kean at #3 and feel Rowan losing in 2OT to Kean warrants where I have Rowan.  Basically I have Sasquatch, Spfield, MSU and Union at 7-10 because they have been winning and are all interchangable along with Cortland and SJF.

I know, but atleast they lost to good teams.

Rowan is kind of a bridge between the best teams in the East and the rest of the good teams.

The Rowan conversation started because if I were still voting, I would have Cortland ahead of Rowan.  What makes Rowan worthy of 46 votes & Cortland zero?

[dlippiel]

Great conversation here. dlip was one of those big on the profs earlier in the year and still feels they are a solid team. Granted they have not beaten anyone of merit but they lost to Kean in OT where, please correct me if I am wrong, the Profs had the lead going into the fourth. We feel Kean is at least well above avg in the east and with Rowan giving them a good game, to dlip that still gives the profs enough street cred to warrent a top ten position. dlip also feels...feels...feels...if Rowan played Cortland again they would come out victorious. Obviously there is a very good point/question regarding the ranking of Rowan over Cortland because of the H to H win earlier in the year, though not to start a crazy ****in powder keg again but dlip still takes into account Frank W being out during that game. Cortland is still a good team and Cortaca will tell dlip some more about the Red Dragons. dlip really hopes the Pride takes out SJF on Saturday to solidify their position as a team that warrents a possible pool C bid. dlip believes SJF is still a very good eastern team, putting them at #10, so he feels a Pride victory would rpovide more rationale behind the Pride being considered for real.

I think Cortland has lost some key players and might not be as good now as Rowan. 

I guess it depends on the criteria you want to rank teams on.  I (and probably most of us) have only seen a few d3 teams live this year, and probably less cross conference games.  All we are going on is records and common opponents.

Agreed, we did beat the injury topic to death earlier.  I'm not a fan of, "Well if they played again now, the results would be different."  Life in general does not work that way.  

Cortland not only beat Rowan H to H, but also played Kean tough......yardage, 1st downs, everything was very close.  Cortland lost to Kean by 14......Cortland beat Rowan by 10.

Common opponents and H to H??  To quote Glenn Ordway, "Your makinnnng my point!!!!"
