CAA Power Rankings

[BDKJMU]

So Jeff, Delaware drops 3 positions after winning 49-9, coasting for an entire half?

That makes a lot of sense.

It's all good. The real schedule starts Saturday, and Delaware is going to show you why they should be ahead of JMU.

Next week JMU will drop 5 places after getting blown out by UD.

Not gonna happen. Not saying UD won't win, but it ain't gonna be a blowout.

I got JMU at #5. Even if lost to UD by double digits not going to fall to #10 behind URI. At worse JMU would be at 8, still ahead of SBU, URI, and Albany.

YUP...The CAA is a blood bath every year

Your comment makes no sense. There are only two teams that are clearly bad at this point.

Take a look at the Big Sky and there are at least five or six teams that look bad already.

but, but, but Weber beat SFA and they beat MSU and ....

I get your point...just joking

[93henfan]

I agree that JMU @ UD should be a close one. No blowout. I predicted on GoHens that the opening line on 5dimes will be UD -2. I think UD wins by 3-7 points.

You going BDK? If you swill brewskies feel free to stop by the Gold Champion lot before the game. Look for the State of DE flag over the blue flag with Youdee over "Delaware".

I spoke with 93henfan yesterday and he said "without my support UD would have their hands full...BUT, with my support UD would roll." * Obviously, I gave him my support and stated I would be watching the game!




* What was posted was a summary of what may or may not have been said but was implied with some literary license. (sure hope that made some sense)

[93henfan]

If your support is worth a couple of TDs vs JMU, well then bring it on!

In return, I will pull for the Bungles in every game except for when they play the Ravens.

Not sure I have told you this before..but here goes. I have never met a Ravens fan before last year. I walked into Red's after a morning of Sunday shooting. While I was BS'ing with a couple of regulars a couple of Ravens fans came in to watch the Bengal v. Ravens game. They were drinking some micro pitcher. When they were getting low, I picked up one and dropped it at their table wishing them the best of luck....not a thank you, not a good luck, nothing. Just a glare. When they finished that one they got another and gave me the stink eye.

Fuck them. Worst NFL fans..right next to Browns.

Well yeah, that was some bullshit. So you're going to judge the City of Baltimore by two douchebags in Missoula, MT?

Isn't andy7171 in Baltimore??? so yeah. He has 3 daughters. I will judge accordingly.

Thanks for offer 93. This game needs its own thread. I'll reply on that.

Yes, that made sense. To the English speaking world, it says that in exchange for a hand job, he received a blow job from you.

[TribeFanInNC]

I'll go:

1. Towson
2a. W&M
2b. Villanova
2c. UNH
2d. Maine
2e. Delaware
2f. JMU
2g. Richmond
2h. Stony Brook
10. URI
11. Albany

Given the limited information accumulated so far, this is the best ranking I've seen.

[YoUDeeMan]

1. Delaware
2. Towson
3. Maine
4. UNH
5. W&M
6. Villanova
7. Richmond
8. JMU
9. Stony Brook

11. Albany

I don't know who you think you are, but you sure aren't a comic.

4. UNH
5. W&M
6. Villanova
7. Richmond
8. JMU
9. Stony Brook
10. URI
11. Albany

[89Hen]

I haven't really had the time to look at all the games so far, but I guess I didn't realize W&M and UNH weren't very good this year.

Well at this point......I'm not sure that they belong above the teams ahead of them. We could just continue to rank teams based on pre-season hype and expectations though........

So I guess my instincts were right?

[YoUDeeMan]

I believe we'll almost know where everyone is by the end of the season.

Almost.

Rankings after Week 5:

1. Towson
2. Maine
3. Delaware
4. William & Mary
5. Villanova
6. JMU
7. Richmond
8. UNH
9. Stony Brook
10. URI
11. Albany

[93henfan]

1. Towson
2. W&M
3. Villanova
4. Maine
5. Delaware
6. JMU
7. Richmond
8. Stony Brook
9. UNH
10. URI
11. Albany

I still think Towson is best, 2-6 are a near-interchangeable tier, 7-9 are another tier, and URI and Albany are just bad. I still don't have a real good feel for W&M yet, so I will say they are a very volatile #2 at the moment.

Real tough spot for UD heading up to Orono, ME this coming Saturday. I will predict later, but it just feels like a loss already. A UD win up there, with Albany, BYE, Rhode Island to follow on the Hens schedule would set up an epic game @ Towson on Nov 2. Andy, get my ticket ready bitch.

Have always struggled with Maine. Not feeling good about it either.

Flip W&M/UD and UR/UNH and that would be mine. I think UD is better than W&M, and have a quality win now vs none for W&M, but given W&M/WVU and UD/Navy would put W&M 1 spot above for now.

It's not clear if the Tribe beat the WVU team that upset #11 Oklahoma State or the one that got demolished by Maryland.

I think Saturday's game at Villanova will be the first true test of where the team stands.

[Easttennhen]

Well I said before that we would know much better where things stood after everybody had played two conference games, which will be the case after saturday. But since opinions are like ass***** everybody has one, i'll go ahead and throw in my two cents.
1. Towson by a wide margin so far.
2. Delaware- still not completely sure, but have beat everyone we were supposed to.
3. Maine- same as delaware but impressive showing against northwestern
4.villanova- stumbled against fordham, but could still be towson's best competition
5.william&mary- jury is still way out on the tribe
6. James madison- jeckyl&hyde so far for the dukes
7. New hampshire- sorry, lehigh is still a bad loss for a top tier CAA team
8. Richmond- another team that's a bit of a riddle, could finish anywhere from 2-9
9. Stony brook- down year for the brook
10. Rhode island- pretty bad, but they beat albany so they avoid the cellar
11. Albany- not the debut season that albany had hoped for i'm sure

[mainejeff]

I wish that Maine and Towson played each other this season.

[andy7171]

I wish that Maine and Towson played each other this season.

Maybe we will. I miss listening to the Maine TV game cast. That stuff is pure gold!

[YoUDeeMan]

Speaking of, "not clear"...did you stop watching that Tribe game at halftime?
