Not true, obvious even ignorant all at the same time.

Maryland looks like the team to beat.

Nah, I will still take UNC but will say they do not look nearly as dominant as they did early last season which may be a good thing for them this season. Maryland will get the hype as they do not really play any of the top 5 teams but will run into one of them in the NCAA tournament and like NW last year they will lose in a marginally competitive game. You can all bash ND but they are still a borderline top 10 team . Couple of unrelated observations; I watched the mens UVA vs Cuse lax game and found it interesting in a game that got pretty chippy at times the men's UVA team let the shot clock expire on several of their possessions in the 4th quarter after it was clear the game was over. With some of the talk about these teams running up the scores maybe taking note of the teams that seem to have good sportsmanship is the way to go.
Way to early Tewaaraton watch, sorry to the CN crazies but right now the best attack player player is Tyrel(cuse) ,the best middy is Mastrianni(unc), the best defender is Trenchard9UNC) and no idea about goalie .

Syracuse not Top 5, Stony Brook Not Top 5... Long Season we will see who finishes the year Top 5, 10, 15, 20. Final Four unless seeding has them play before the final four Maryland, UNC, BC and ???

Virginia and ND both probably a little higher than their ranking. Not sure Duke is Top 10. Loyola did not look very good vs Towson who is struggling. Is Michigan for real? Maybe. Northwestern will be in the mix come Tournament time. Transfers making an impact for MD, Terp's look very good. Princeton looks like the only Ivy that came back ready to play, maybe Penn will pick it up after close loss to Hopkins, two years is a long time off. Denver quietly looking to crack the Top 10. Can Florida turn it around vs Stony Brook this week? That game should be telling, is it a must will for Stony Brook? They do not have many other opportunities to get quality wins. Can Rutgers, Drexel, Vandi, Richmond, USC and Jacksonville hang around all year?

Crazy to think that UVA and ND could possibly not make the Tournament.

What is the deal this year with the NCAA tournament?

How many AQ's and how many at large bids for 2022?

Also if anyone knows what is the minimum win percentage a team needs to be considered for an at large bid , is it .500 or over .500.
