I'm row 4.

I agree with everyone else on 1-5. After that, I simply think the CCIW's 4th and 5th best teams are still better than most of the remaining teams. Augustana's losses are to IWU, in a very close contest, and North Central. They smoked a Millikin team that beat Hope. I just don't know how I rank Hope above Augustana right now, seeing as I can't envision them doing any better were they to play Augustana's schedule.

Washington is trickier. Their losses are to North Central and Wheaton and neither game was close. But again, how many team's in the North region to you feel confident would keep it close against those two? I don't think Hope would, nor any of the NCAC teams.
Let's go Dutchmen!

I don't think anyone who loses to North Park is going to even be in the extended extended rankings ;) I also don't think too many people have mixed up North Central and North Park football teams in recent years. ???

Haha! I had North Park on the brain. But certainly a team losing to North Park would keep them out of my rankings for a very very long time. Editted!

I'm column 10 this week.  I threw Berg a #10 vote.  They're 5-1 with their lone loss being 34-33 to BW where they went for 2 at the end and failed.  With Mount coming to town tomorrow they'll be dropping out barring something miraculous occurring.

I watched that Berg vs. BW game and still can't believe Heidelberg lost. Heidelberg should have won by 28 point but got lackadaisical on both sides of the ball that day instead of keeping their foot on the gas. Unfortunately, that BW loss will probably cost Heidelberg a spot in the playoffs.

I struggle with this mentality. To me, losing to Mount shouldn't change your ranking. To a lesser extent, neither should losing to Wheaton or North Central.

The philosophy i use for my rankings could sound something like this...

1a. Mount
1b. The best team in the CCIW
Next. Any team that I think could keep from being embarrassed by Mount (if that team exists).
Next. Any team that I think could keep from being embarrassed by the best team in the CCIW.
Finally. Try to stay unbiased as a fill in the remaining teams based on how I think they would do against each other one on one.

I don't believe Hope or Denison would have any shot at keeping it close against Mount or Wheaton. So why should they be rewarded in my rankings over a CCIW or OAC team, simply because they don't have to play them? Or perhaps better argued, why should a CCIW or OAC team be penalized for getting waxed by a team that I believe would wax every team outside of the top 2 to 4.

Miraculous was  an overstatement.  Berg needs to play well and give a BW type competitive performance.  A loss certainly isn't an automatic disqualification.  I just meant that if they get housed and look like Ott they'll be gone and that's a pretty decent chance.

It looks like some people wrote off Denison a bit quickly.

It will be interesting when the RRs come out and evolve. Denison has a poor SOS that should improve and with one loss should be ranked somewhere. Where will Aurora or Hope shake out if they don't lose another game? What will they do with the HCAC winner (Hanover or maybe still MSJ)? Does Wash U get ranked with two losses? Does an 8-2 Wabash? A third OAC team?

Because the east region is a bizarre place that is rather different to the other three regions :D
