East Region Fan Poll

[Saxon73]

As we speak, AU's defense isn't bad 

[theoriginalupstate]

Muhlenberg looks pretty impressive to me.....if the were in the East right now, I'd have to look at them long and hard as the current #1 seed.

RPI, AU and SJF would easily handle the CC rep....

Last time the Mules came into the East, boasting the #1 D in the NCAA, they were blown out of the first round as SJF rushed for over 200yds and put up 31 pts in a 31-3 win.

Last year I thought Fisher would hang like Rowan hung in 2005.  If Mount smokes Capital, hope the East goes West, and that's no bargain either, but the East would have a better shot.

How about this scenario?

UW-Stevens Point beats UW-Whitewater.  Someone beats St. John's and Central.

UW-Whitewater beats UMHB.  Wesley beats Salisbury.

North (Mount Union) and South are the higher seeded brackets.  And the South's top seed is...drum roll...Muhlenberg!  That's drivable for all the East region teams.

Alright, probably not going to happen, but it would give the East a much better chance of playing in the Stagg Bowl. 

Much better chance?  How about an automatic chance....

Any East team wouldnt have too much trouble getting past the offensively challenged Mules....

Just ask TCNJ.

And Union.

You can't  say because it happened then, it would happen now.

I just did

Of the CC winners since 03, only Hopkins averaged over 20ppg....

[pg04]

I'm sure they'll accept 13-7 wins. 

[redswarm81]

. . . if the penultimate mismatch against MUC is all this entire year is about (no matter what lucky team is the fodder in Salem) perhaps we're missing a bit of what this division is about.

Good use of the word "penultimate."  Are you sure you're not from NESCAC? 

I thought all NJAC posters talk like Christofuh Moltisanti, and eventually get "totally ostrafied."

You're talking about '04??  Come on dude...get a clue.

does Fisher get any credit for housing Springfield...

[pg04]

Yes, However TCNJ is similiarly housing a school with the same record as Springfield so my voting is unlikely to change in regards to the two schools.

Also, Alfred was impressive again. 

I don't think there was anything too shocking or surprising to change the way anyone ordered their top 4...with RPI winning 41-3 as well. 

I expect that the top 4 will probably stay in the same order.  But any one vote shifting I suppose could change things. 

[pg04]

It also looks like I'll have to change my under rating of Cortland.  I wasn't too sold on them but now I am! 

[pg04]

Remember all voters, get the polls in by Monday Night!  I will do my best to get them out sometime that night!

is Curry going to get any notice after their win over plymouth state... both teams were undefeated and Curry was up 42-7 at the half... i think they deserve just a little bit of consideration to be in the East top ten

[superman57]

Curry got some credit from me

Oddly enough, I think Curry is not the story that will be coming from the NEFC.  If Plymouth State can finish 9-1, there is a slight chance that PSU will turn the D-3 world on its head and earn a Pool C slot should the East Region not have any eligible one-loss teams.  This is due to the SoS issue playing itself out right now.  Keep your eye on this one.  IF Coast Guard beats an undefeated Curry, then Curry would actually displace PSU in that discussion.  PSU needs to root for Curry down the stretch -- this is just another 2007 college football oddity coming together.
