FB: Region 3 fan poll

[Ralph Turner]

ETBU QB Josh Warbington did not play against McMurry. I do not know the reason why.

[jknezek]

Well I don't feel very lonely in my thinking given how the D3 poll came out.

Waiting on 2 more ballots.

[Mr. Ypsi]

Ralph, you need to beat the bushes to recruit voters.  You've got a high quality (though slow) group, but every other region has 8-10 voters, and puts out the poll by Tuesday!

Aside from past history, I don't see the evidence yet that UMHB should be above HSU.  H-t-h is not everything, but you need some compelling other evidence to override it.  IF UMHB absolutely eviscerates ETBU, that would do it for me for polling, though it probably still wouldn't do it for Pool B selection (unless HSU loses, of course).

I had some turnover in my voters this year. I am grateful for their efforts.  Their travel schedules this year have delayed balloting until late Wednesday or Thursday. Day jobs....

You need to find retirees - my ballot almost always goes in Saturday night!

Any response on UMHB/HSU?

[jknezek]

I put UMHB in front of HSU. Home field is worth a couple points, that's what H-SU won by. So I feel those teams are pretty comparable. I'd assume it's the same logic someone used when putting Guilford in front of W&L. Would I have done it if H-SU hadn't lost to a team outside the poll? No. But that's not really a pretty loss. TLU handled ETBU pretty easily (28 point home loss) and I just don't think ETBU is all that good. I expect UMHB to win handily over ETBU. Will re-evaluate if my expectations don't come true.

[Ralph Turner]

Lazindex, which is leading the ASC Pick'em contest,  has UMHB a 20 point favorite over ETBU this weekend.
Bornpowerindex has UMHB by 29.

[Toby Taff]

Mr ypsi,
things to consider about umhb hsu.
if home field is good for 3 there's your margin of victory
it is a rivalry game that eventhough umhb has been dominating, hsu takes very seriously ( in all sports really)
hsu is good, but Ramos is exceptional and ridiculously fast. he was the difference in the game. last week in the mud and muck ETBU was able to handle him and run down hill
ETBU is going to get CRUshed tomorrow and I don't think it'll truly reflect on hsu because of the conditions last week.

not arguing umhb should be ahead or behind....just food for thought. honestly as long as they're together I think its ok
