1. North Carolina 2. Maryland 3. Northwestern 4. Syracuse 5. Penn State 6. Duke 7. Florida 8. Virginia 9. Boston College 10. Princeton 11. Stony Brook 12. Penn 13. Stanford 14. Hopkins 15. Notre Dame 16. James Madison 17. Southern Cal 18. Ohio State 19. Towson 20. Loyola
Pre season polls have James Madison, U Mass, Jacksonville all dropping out of the top 20 to make room for Ohio St, Louisville, and Princeton. Of teams that remain in the top 20 Northwestern and ND are expected to make the biggest jump
Well maybe not Northwestern
Maybe not ND either - lucky to get a win yesterday, Stanford gave the game away. one of the rare occasions when ND out coaches anyone, cant see halfpenny lasting if this year is another debacle
