The results are in

Check it out at http://www.championshipsubdivision.com/poll/

I think it looks pretty good and shows a great representation of how the teams are actually performing!

Thoughts?

Surprised Eastern Washington is not in the top 25.

that's better

I'm actually pretty surprised too about EWU. There might be a little bug in the calculations so we will take a look at it and might be updating the poll tomorrow with the new results if there is a bug.

The "bug" may be with the voters. With all the talk about whether to include those teams that can play in the playoffs or not, maybe some did not vote for EWU because of the post season ban. Myself, I have them at #17 so I did vote them in, but others may have looked at the notion that EWU cannot play in the playoffs, therefore why include them.

A top 25 poll is supposed to represent the 25 best teams in the country, not simply teams that are playoff eligible. The ban is not for certain either, as it's been appealed. To not include EWU in a top 25 poll would be a farce.

I agree, top 25 is top 25. Keeps it simple that way.

Even this east coast voter had EWU at #12 on my ballot...maybe the BSC and western voters know something I don't...

Nice to see W&M now appears...

Can you add a 'receiving votes' column to see those on the outside looking in, like EWU.

I think I voted EWU 20 or higher

I had EWU in top 25 or top 20 as well

congrats on the poll guys

Umm, is this a joke?

TO ALL EWU FANS, PLEASE READ MY COMMENTS, there is a bug in the system and EWU did not get included somehow. PLEASE BE PATIENT while we work this out! THANK YOU
