Most of the time, however, if you have submitted your poll and it was accepted I have no problem

That's usually what I do. Maybe Scream didn't have enough to do, what with Eastern off and him being banned from AGS, that he thought he'd get a jump on things. I'm sure this week drove him crazy (not that he wasn't already ).

I kind of enjoyed this week... got to watch a lot of other games and not worry about our game. Caught portions of Holy Cross/Lehigh, Colgate/Lafayette, PSU/MSU, UNC/Sac, UM/ISU, and NAU/Miss. I suppose it's a good thing I'm not allowed at that shithole right now... fewer douchebags to respond to. Now if I could get banned from eGriz, I'd have nothing to worry about!

Your pride get a little soggy yesterday Jalmond?

Hen,

How far did you drop UNH this week from you poll last week? They only beat a 1-7 Rhode Island team by 12 and gave up 42 points to them, their highest point total of the year. Heck they even lost to Towson by 8. Just curious

Then moved up one spot from my last ballot. I dropped SDSU from 7th to 9th.

I'm sure your follow-up question will be, "then why did you drop Montana to 5th when they also barely beat a bad team?" Look, this is not a question of how you did against bad teams. It's about how you did against good teams, and Villanova, William and Mary, and Richmond all have stronger wins than Montana. Nova has beaten both W&M and Richmond. W&M and Richmond play each other in two weeks, which will knock one of them from the ranks of the Top 4 seeds. If UNH can beat W&M and W&M can beat Richmond then the CAA will knock itself down to only one seeded team. Even Nova will have to earn their seed against a Hens team that will be fired up to spoil them. SIU, on the other hand, has two very winnable games left and should be able to high step to a seed. If Montana takes care of business against a middling Montana St team, they obviously wrap up a seed. Fear not.

When it's all said and done, I think the seeds will be SIU, Montana, Nova, and the Richmond/W&M winner, barring losses by any of these teams outside the head-to-head matchup. My poll does nothing to dispel this scenario, with a lot of action left in the CAA and a potentially competitive game in Montana @ MSU. It'll all play itself out.

Two teams from west of the Mississippi? You're slipping.

Understand I was just curious as the focus on Montana has been precisely how they played against a bad team. I was not surprised to see UNH win but I was surprised, while watching the game, at how URI moved the ball and scored on them and I think that you have to treat the teams the same. If you penallize UM for their excuse of a game, then UNH should fall into the same catagory because both eventually won.
