You say you factored in matchups and competition, but Syracuse didn't play anyone to start their season. You have four Orange in your top 25 and only one player from Cornell? Cornell who is also undefeated and beat Penn State and Ohio State? Seems off. If its just about stats and being undefeated, why not have Georgetown players all over over your top 50? having watched every Syracuse game this year, and a lot of other games, I just don't see the methodology behind it.
Do you want specific arguments:
11. Trimboli: Good player, but number 11 player in the country good? Definitely not. Not a coach in the country would pick him over O'Keefe, Costabile, Moore, Bernhardt, or Wisnauskas. He's a very good shooter who got his points because he was the third best middie on a very stacked line, and got the list defensive attention. Overall it's was shaping up to be a weak year for midfielders, and I think there are more deserving attack men would be ranked higher.
16. Curry: Same exact argument, with less production than Trimboli.
23. Porter: Very good goalie, yes, but not top goalie in the country and top 25 overall player. Outside the top 10 in goals against, save %, and saves per game. I think goalie is a muddled group and no one really deserved Top 50 rankings. If I had to pick one though, I think McElroy and Schulper had better starts to the season.
29. Kennedy: Laughably over ranked. Koby Smith, Brett Makar, Gavin Adler, Mark Evanchick, and way better players. He got exposed against Colgate and never had to play a truly challenging offensive team the entire year. Much better LSM than close defender.
43. Dordevic: Had one excellant games (7pts vs Hobart). Take that out and he had 7 points in the remaining 4 games combined. Shot was off all year, looked (deservedly) rusty coming off injury. Will be a force next year, but wasn't great this year.
62. Rehfuss: Third best attackman on a mediocre attack unit at number 62? Nope.
