Not as many quality teams. Not a knock on D2.

That’s totally a knock. Anyway, 7 of their games were vs a top 15 team.


It's not a knock. D2 does not have depth. So you will have a team suchs as Queens that plays a difficult schedule with a bad record. The division just does not have a lot of good teams. A couple of years back a talented D3 Hamilton team beat the eventual D2 champ Florida Southern (It was actually Florida Southern's last loss of the year). Hamilton didn't make the D3 NCAA playoffs that year. D2 schools also don't have "branding" like D1 and many D3 schools.

The original "curious" post was why does a 2-6 team get ranked. The answer is there are not many quality teams. That is not a knock on D2 as a whole.
