East Region Fan Poll

[Boxer7806]

I think CNU vs. Salisbury is a Top 5 worthy game (as far as East Region matchups go).

Even though they aren't top ten, RPI vs. HOB and SUNY vs. HUSS will have playoff implications as both are effectively conf / elimination type games for the LL and ECFC.

I think Salisbury is a top ten team in the east, albeit in the 9-10 range right now. I think we will learn a lot about the four of Salisbury/CNU and Wesley/Frostburg this week. I think Del Val is going to handle Albright. Del Val has that killer instinct, and is putting teams away. If Frostburg wins I think their has to be some good thought about them being number 1 in this poll. A CNU win has to put them ahead of Framingham, and to be honest I think they should be ahead of them already.

Good stuff with this poll.

I am sorry, but stop with Stevenson getting votes.  They have 2 losses and with the number of teams with no or 1 loss in the east no team should be in with 2 losses, let alone at 8.  I keep dropping Albright each week as they just eek out victories against so so teams.

I am not sure about Salisbury, they have not looked that good in the wins they have, this week will tell with them.  I think they lose to CNU.  I agree, if Frostburg beats Wesley in a more convincing fashion than Del Val did I will have no issue with them at 1.  I think Wesley wins the game because I think Frostburg will have trouble scoring.  The key will be the first quarter and does Wesley shoot themselves in the foot with turnovers like the Del Val game and have to dig out of a big hole.  I think Del Val takes out Albright rather easily.  The East has some nice games this week.

Buffalo State, Hobart, and RPI beat Stevenson 9 out of 10 times this season. They are not very good (dlip has watched them twice). IDHO they have no business being on this list. Last years achievements can only carry a team so far. wesleyday made a strong point to dlip recently regarding Stevenson's woes. He was right then and is right now. Just something to ponder Gents.

Agree with this dlip.......Stevenson ...not based on the current body of work

I had Salisbury at #10 and can't figure why Stevenson is at #10. I think the Salisbury/CNU game will be a close one. The spread will be Salisbury -3.5 coming out soon.

I agree, I have been keeping an eye on the SUNY vs. Husson game as this may be the conference championship and maybe an future opponent for either us or Springfield come playoff time continues in this direction in the NE.

Husson is the better team. Smith has been a problem for teams the past 4 years. I just don't think Suny can contain him based on the success some other teams have had against them this year in the run game.

Agree, I have SUNY on my watch list since they are undefeated.  This week will mean plenty if they win and others lose.  I know the committee would like to have a NY team instead of a Maine team to place somewhere to play.

They will never admit that. However, I think they are getting better with making sure top teams do not play each other.

I am curious on how this poll is going to shape out this week, especially with my Gulls beating CNU and Albright getting beat very bad by Delaware Valley.

I think Salisbury swaps with CNU and Wesley and Frostburg switch spots. I still like Brockport as #1.

That means the Gulls jump over that SOLID #10 Stevenson

I got Brockport, Del Val, Wesley, Frostburg.  Went with the Del Val>Wesley>Frostburg line.  I have a 2 loss team in my top 10, but it is not Stevenson.  Alfred is tough as they are undefeated, but cant move them ahead of the top 4.  Game with Brockport in a few weeks will tell where they are and with a win would have to move them to 2 behind Del Val.  The east is stacking up to be very competitive and I know they dont do specific regions, but if Brockport and Del Val go undefeated and Wesley, Alferd, and Frostburg only have 1 loss add Framingham, Springfield, and Husson and that makes a pretty nice bracket.  Never too early to start conjecture on the playoffs.

My Top 4 are the same and then Alfred, Springfield, Framing, Salis and CNU. Couldn't come up with #10 so I put in Hobart.
