upenn and SB should be ahead of Duke and UVA Those two teams(UVA and Duke) get so much leeway in these polls. SB started at 7 you don't fall to 15 having not played a game. Albany also was ranked and is out having not played. It's very clear your agenda Also Hopkins was 17/18 beat a very poor Rutgers team and went up to top 10 it's great if you do a poll but do it right
No agenda. Stony Brook and Albany have not played a game yet. Penn played one game against a team not in any top 20.
Trying to reward teams for winning and playing top competition. I kept Loyola in at 0 - 2 because they lost to Florida and Syracuse (could be 2 - 0 against weak competition). Loyola's next four games are against Hopkins, Towson, Penn State and Virginia. That is a challenging first six games. They also have Georgetown, Boston College and Princeton thats 9 tough out of conference games.
Tough to keep SBU or Albany ahead of teams who have played 2 or 3 game against quality opponents. I'm sure there will be plenty of movement over the next few weeks as teams play more games.
