The polls can be even crazier than usual this time of year, but this is another old “tradition” I thought I’d get restarted.
Guess, Team, [Previous Rank]
1 Sam Houston [1]
2 South Dakota State [2]
3 James Madison [3]
4 Montana [4]
5 North Dakota State [5]
6 Delaware [6]
7 Eastern Washington [7]
8 Southern Illinois [8]
9 Weber State [10]
10 North Dakota [9]
11 Jacksonville State [16]
12 Montana State [11]
13 Villanova [12]
14 SE Louisiana [13]
15 UC Davis [14]
16 ETSU [15]
17 Austin Peay [17]
18 VMI [18]
19 Missouri State [23]
20 Monmouth [20]
21 Northern Iowa [21]
22 Kennesaw St [22]
23 Central Ark. [19]
24 Richmond [25]
25 Chattanooga [NR]
NR Holy Cross [24]
The top ten remained about the same, except I thought North Dakota might slip a spot because of their big loss to a so-so Utah State team. That may be wishful thinking, just to move Weber State up.
The big change is a jump for Jacksonville State after their road upset of Florida State. They could move up even more, but I’m guessing the fluky end of the game makes five spots seem about right.
For this early effort, I simply swapped positions between Central Arkansas and Missouri State.
When you’re low in the list, you cannot afford to lose a game, especially one you’re supposed to win. So, Holy Cross will almost certainly be gone. Of the Others receiving votes, Chattanooga had a respectable win, so I moved them up. (Murray State hung in there with Cincinnati for a while, but then got buried.)
