Thanks for the kind words, FC.

It does require some time to do it well. I appreciate everyone's effort.

As for your credentials, to win as many Pick'ems contests as you have, including the ODAC twice and ASC, you have the breadth of knowledge of D3.

Thanks for contributing.

I'm sure Trinity falls out of the top 10 and is replaced by Susquehanna.  I believe both of those teams will get a test this weekend from Berry and Muhlenberg respectively which should help shake out the bottom part of the pole.  What I am curious to see is how far JHU drops.  They gave up 21 4th quarter points against Susquehanna losing to them 2 years in a row.  If Averett can beat Ferrum this weekend I would imagine that they make it on a ballot or two.

I'm not so sure about that. Trinity loses by 6 at the likely new #2 team in the region, that's a pretty credible result. I think Randolph-Macon ends up the big loser in all this. They had to score 21 unanswered in the 4th to pull out the win against Averett by 3 and then their loss to Johns Hopkins isn't as impressive now that JHU lost.

So I guess the top 5 remains unchanged.  Case moves up to #6?  I see the possibility of 10 teams being considered for the remaining 4 spots.  There is a log jam in the Centennial with Muhlenberg, JHU, Susquehana, and possibly F&M (who gets their first test of the season this weekend).  The PAC is in a similar situation with Case, W&J, Mellon, and Westminister (also untested).  I would think there is still consideration for Centre and Trinity in the SAA but they play this weekend and a loss won't be a nail in either teams coffin but likely start to close the lid with 2 losses in conference.  The ODAC has RMC and Bridgewater is unbeaten and untested as of yet as well.  The USAC still has only one hope in Averett.

I definitely think Carnegie Mellon and Westminster are both underrated this season....CMU, of course, has already flexed its muscle.

Westminster has been cruising and will get tested in two weeks when they're @ CWRU on Oct 5.

Arguably right now the four PAC team (W&J, CMU, CWRU, and Westminster) are all at the same level.  This is definitely the most top heavy the PAC has been since I've followed it.

One ballot is out for the games of 09/21.

More confusion in the South!

Trinity has lost by 6 at HSU and by 4 hosting Berry.

Centre lost to the Roos?   :o

Still early!

Centre graduated 25 seniors last season.  Almost their entire o-line too.  They obviously are adjusting to the new player combinations.

don't see any changes this week at the top,  it'll be interesting to see where 6-10 fall.

Was wondering why SW dropped off until saw that they turned the ball over six times against TLU and put a big ol' goose egg on the scoreboard.   That'll do it ...

This was an odd week for quarterbacks.  Neither TLU or SW had 100 yards in the air, nor did the starting QBs in Trinity-Centre.   The only reason Berry had 100 in the air was one play that went for 69 yards; otherwise the starter was 4-22 for 40 yards.   And weather wasn't a factor.  Weird. 

umhb2001

Both UMHB QBs played really well and had good numbers. Tommy Bowden, the freshman, third string qb from Brownwood, ran well. I'm guessing he will be the starter next year unless someone transfers.
Watch out for the wreckingCRU defense!!
