Wow! The polls are just crazy. Everyone just keeps knocking each other off. So much parity.coda wrote: ↑Mon Mar 11, 2024 9:35 amI dont think they have that luxury. This is a pretty bad schedule. Lot of lax left, but I dont think the RPI is going to look favorably on Army as the year progresses. This is the type of schedule that 2-3 losses could have you on the outside looking in.Finster wrote: ↑Mon Mar 11, 2024 8:41 amjoewillie78 wrote: ↑Sun Mar 10, 2024 5:17 pmThanks, actually. I'm a Gin and Tonic guy. In fact, I'm having one right now.

You need a martini after these weekends. This poll work isn’t easy, other than Army.
Not gonna lie, I’d be really happy if Army found the Natty at the end of the season. I can’t imagine them losing until the tournament; I don’t see anyone they won’t certainly be favored over. The only return to some semblance of polling predictability is if they lose to Loyola or one of the other PL teams.
Great job yet again, JoeWillie!!

I love the spirit!
Looking at Army’s schedule, I see them possibly throwing you a curve ball on April 26 with their last game of the season: they play at Loyola. If (and it’s a big if, obviously) they go undefeated til then, I wonder if they might rest starters, allowing Loyola to surprise and win a meaningless game? That would toss the polls into another heated debate.
Anyway, continue with this great work!
Personally - I love seeing Army as the #1. I have so much respect for the service academies. During my time at Brown we had some epic battles against the Cadets.
Who is going to get knocked off this week?
