We've had this conversation on the E8 board this week in reference to the site's Top 25 - interested in why voters have Fisher ranked higher than Alfred after a H2H result that is contrary, similar results against Salisbury, and large difference in results against Ithaca.  Not that it matters more than window dressing since both are staring at ECAC bids for any postseason action.

Looking at the ballots, 4 had neither, 2 had SJF but not Alfred, I had Alfred but not SJF, and 1 had both with Alfred being higher.
With each being on so few ballots it's difficult to get a consensus on who people think are better as opposed to say UWW vs UWP who are higher up in the polls. I also think part of it is that SJF started off the season 11th in this poll while Alfred didn't even receive a vote until they beat SJF then lost the next week. It's usually tough to work your way up the poll when you start off under the radar rather than if you're already high up there.

Polls have more to do with expectations than actual results. 

Whitewater was expected to be a national title contender.  So even with a bad home loss to a barely average Buff State team, they remain pretty high after losing to Oshkosh.   

SJF was expected to be better than Alfred, so the later Alfred loss makes their win over SJF look questionable.
I find easily offended people rather offensive!

Statistics are like bikinis; what they reveal is interesting, what they hide is essential.

I agree, coach.  That's the way I fill out my East Region Fan Poll ballot - expectations.  But, in this case I think the results against common opponents would change expectations.  Salisbury beat Fisher by 11 in Pittsford, Alfred by 3 at home.  Fisher beat Ithaca by 4, Alfred over Ithaca by 24.  And then there's the 13 point H2H result.  Just peculiar.

Of course, that was just a couple of pollsters, since only two had Willamette in their poll and only one PLU and people weigh H2H results with different lenses.
