Re: New Poll Predictions for 1/25
I somewhat agree. I have been surprised at how much credit the NCHA has been getting all year as it seems weaker than last season. However, CSS this season is typically very good, and I say typically in regards to the UWRF weekend.
Also, the NCHA has the very best interconference record in all of DIII. You can discount that, but you can't entirely negate it. Sure, they don't all play whoppers of NC schedules, but it is what it is.
Next, in my opinion Stout has been too inconsistent to be ranked. SNC loses to Eau Claire, Elmira loses to Morrisville and CSS loses to SJU, but they all consistently win games. Stout goes out and wins a bunch, then lays an egg, then wins some, then lays an egg, then sweeps UWRF, then lays an egg... You get what I'm saying.[/QUOTE]
I get what your saying. I don't actually believe Stout should be ranked either but they should receive some consideration especially in light of their non-conference schedule. Hopefully they will finish strong. My point was that they are competitive with other NCHA teams and yet lose 9-1 to Norwich and 7-3 to Middlebury.
Beating up on each other every week makes the NCHA arguably the most competitive and entertaining conference out there however without more quality wins against strong non conference opponents it's difficult for me to see how they are ranked so high. I won't argue the NCHA has the best inter conference record however when you actually look closely at nc quality opponents you wonder. Even St. Norbert managed to lose to Salem State and only tied Hamline, their only nc opponents with winning percentages above 500. I am not arguing SNC's ranking as I agree with you in that they are consistently good and they are in a competitive conference. I am just saying they are not lights out against quality non-conference opponents and they are the NCHA's top team.

I don't think D-I fans are the only ones living in mom's basement:
So DI fans are financially independent and have the luxury of accessing the internet during the day, while DIII fans (other than Norwich fans) have to work?

Hummm, must be a fan of the former Twin City Cyclones, I've seen the view before, it is near Winston-Salem, NC.

Re: New Poll Predictions for 1/25
I think that ship has sailed but thanks for the update
If any poster was really interested in the poll that much they would have saw my post that had it on Monday afternoon.
But I can see why administrators and SID's would like to see it updated on the website so that they weren't getting their information from a fan forum

Re: New Poll Predictions for 1/25
Just wondering how frequently the KRACH gets updated? Also I read that they had a weighted formula that evened the playing field compensating for scheduled inequity regarding home and away games. Do they actually use the formula. Has anyone figured out the overall statistical relevance of home field advantage for say the entire Division 3 season? Do home teams win 5.5 games out of ten or is it more or less? How much of an advantage is it or is the division 3 sample size to small to determine etc.
Thanks for any imput
