FB: New England Small College Athletic Conference

[Nescacman]

Bantamsdad69, I know as well as anyone that it's hard to not fall into Nescacman's trap, but I've learned over the years that it's exactly what he's looking for. He knows as well as the rest of the board that there's no real case to be made for Wesleyan in the top spot after their narrow escape in Clinton. Best to just roll your eyes and realize that despite his very meaning full addition to the board he can't help himself when it comes to his complete lack of objectivity about Wesleyan.

Combined record of opponents of 1st Place NESCAC teams (through 3 games):

Amherst: 0-9

Hartford State: 2-7

Wesleyan: 4-5
 

[Trin9-0]

It's your ranking bud, do what's in your heart.

All I know is that Wes needed a miracle to beat a team who hasn't had a winning season since 1996. Meanwhile Trinity completely obliterated the team YOU had ranked as the third best in the NESCAC.

We stumbled across a site that literally blows the SP+ ratings away. Here you go:

Had some fun with it. FWIW...The Hansen model has North Central beating Hartford State in the Coop by 17. HaHa

[Nescacman]

Knowing Hs7-2 like we do, we'll beat him to the punch:

North Central 42 Wes 16 (North Central -26) @Andrus..

Hansen has HS giving 30 this Saturday to the Continentals btw...
