East Region Fan Poll

[gordonmann]

On the MAC, I'd take a "wait and see" approach.  With the disappearance of Wilkes' offense, Widener should be the favorite with an excellent defense.  But I'd wait to see what they do with Wes and Rowan.

I think the conference will be very competitive this year, meaning it'll be tough to rank any of them above the others.

Hi all.

Depending on how work goes, I would like to have the new poll up tomorrow night after 9 sometime. 

Please remember to have the poll in by 8pm Monday.  Thanks!

Still too early, but there were some things I noticed about this weeks poll

1) Should Cortland winning 71-7 mean anything at all?
No, not really. The bigger news is Smith and Bowser going out. Cortland's defense is  still suspect with all the graduations. And Ray Miles isn't Alex Smith.

2) Union loses to one of the best teams in the country while RPI beats their regular cupcake non-league game....does RPI still deserve to be a few notches higher? 
Yeah. RPI's got most of their players back from last year. Union has to deal w/o having Marotti, Arcidiacano, Angiletta and Twitchell; plus dueling quarterbacks with Gourrier and Civetti.

3) Although I dont see them being there at the end of the season, does William Patterson deserve a spot just because of one win?
Nah. I'm not terribly sold on Wilkes after their loss yesterday to Montclair State. I'd like to see how things go WPUNJ. in the coming weeks.  We were all really excited when Kean smacked USMAA, but then the Cougars came back down to reality by getting hammered at Albright.

4) When is a MAC team going to impress me enough to get back in the poll?
Beats me.

According to the polls I  have so far:

1)  The big victory didn't have much of an effect
2)  A definitive yes, so far. 
3)  They may squeak in due to the losses of the likes of Union and Kean
4)  One may squeak in this week. 

But that's with half the polls reporting
