Just out of curiosity..RIT is #1 with a rating of 1.46 and Platty #2 with a rating of .77. Why is there such a huge difference between them?
As I have also been trying to not comment on fan opinion polls this year, I'm having trouble wrapping my brain around people ranking a 4-3-2 team ahead of a 9-1-1 team when they tied in the head-to-head. But that's just me.
They're all Islander fans.
I'm fairly certain I'm the lone soldier standing in that boat lol
Fan Poll
1 RIT
2 UWRF

5 Holy Cross
6 Midd
7 Elmira
8 Adrian
9 M'Ville
10 Bowdoin
I guess I just think that a team that that is 4-3-2 (.555) does not belong in the top 10. against .500 or better teams they are 2-3-2, overall 4-3-2 As you said it's just an opinion. When teams face the heavy weights and lose they'll drop in the polls. Even UWSP at 8-2 has fallen out of my top ten, for now they are still in the Berry Patch Top 15I understand this is an opinion poll, but having seen Amherst beat your #7 and tie your #3 (on their home ice) how is it your opinion of the Lord Jeffs is so low as to leave them out of the top 10? I would love to see Bowdoin back in the top 10, but I watched a bit of their lack-luster effort against New England College last evening and I am afraid they have some tough sledding when they face the NESCAC heavy weights in the coming weeks.

I'm not really understanding how a one-loss team is lower than a 3-loss team, unless we are feeling bad because Amherst has played mostly road games, of course.
