Lots of votes to go around this week. Don't recall having this many RVs before.

Questions about about:

Where to put Stout or Platteville? Are 5 WIAC teams in the Top 10 too many?

We think Bethel is the second best MIAC team. Are they? Is the third best MIAC teaam worthy of votes?

Is Whitworth better than they looked against Carnegie Mellon? (Signs point to yes, perhaps)?

Is there anyone in the SCIAC worth voting for?

Dr. Doolittle

Surprised to see several SCIAC teams on RV.  I am Cal Lu homer and did not vote them in?  Redlands is 0-3?  I would put Pamona-Pitzer and CMS ahead of Redlands and Chapman.

02 Warhawk

Yeah, there were some questionable selections. To each their own though.

Like I said in the past, I'll never call people out. But if they want to post their picks here - and explain their reasoning - then they are more than welcome to.

02 Warhawk

Wow. The next poll is going to be interesting. Lots of things in play considering the H2H between UWW, SJU, Bethel and UWP.

Crazy!!

Dr. Doolittle

Wow, what a weekend of crazy games in D3

Lots of interesting stuff here. A few to point out:

- UWW went 0 first-place votes last week to 6 this week, despite of only gaining 1 point from last week (88 to 89).
- Wide range of opinions on Bethel. Don't think we've had a team get a 1st place and a 9th place vote in the same week before.
- Lots of uncertainty on Linfield, especially since playing only two games so far. A few first-place votes possibly just because they're a big name that hasn't lost yet? First place by default?
- With conference play coming up, we'll probably see a lot of movement in the upcoming weeks between the 6 WIAC teams getting votes

One of the more intriguing starts to a D-III season.  Along with Bethel's range, George Fox received one second place vote and was left off another ballot altogether.

This is obviously very subjective, but one thing I really like about these results is that St. John's and UW-W (and even to a degree Bethel and UW-P) have not been overly penalized for playing good teams. The order can be debated, but I do think you guys got the top 4 right.

The D3football.com poll does a pretty good job of sorting things out as well. The only unfortunate (but understandable) result on their poll in my mind is that the two top two (NCC and Mount Union) are benefitting from scheduling soft.  As much fun as we've had watching and analyzing the UW-W, UMHB, St. John's, Bethel, UW-P, Hardin Simmons loop, NCC and Mount and their soft schedules are benefitting the most right now.  I know it doesn't even matter, it's just fun to see how it's all shaking out.

I'll come clean on a few of my votes. Obviously I'm a UWW fan, but I was not one of the 6 to vote them in the top spot. I actually had them 3rd. I have Linfield in the top spot (w/ SJU #2), only because I wasn't comfortable putting anyone else up there.

Yes, Bethel had a great win at home against SJU, but the loss to UWP is still fresh in my head (which is a bad loss in my opinion, even taking into account injuries). I had Bethel unranked last week. Moved them up to 9th this week, right behind UWP (who I have at 8th).

So far this season, my top 7 teams have remained in the top 7 spots - only I've switched the order as that weeks play results come in. On any given day, I think if any of them were to play one another, either team could win. Now, as the season progresses, we as voters start to see in-conference play and the wins/losses help us to stack them accordingly. I concur about Linfield - too little data and riding their resume on past performance.

Wasn't Bethel missing their star QB against UWP? Hard to ignore what they did against SJU with him. I imagine that UWP game is very different if he plays.
