Iona's 3-point weekend against Air Force connected the MAAC to the rest of
the world, so all the ratings are now on one scale (none of this "two
groups" nonsense!).
 
Two-loss weekends for Maine and Colgate move them out of the top 5, while
last week's #3 through #7 move up in step to be this week's top 5.
