What pray-tell do you have against UMass-Amherst? :-)
 
Seven out of eight H-East teams in the top 14????  Even if this were
true, they would beat each other enough so that the votes wouldn't go
that way.
 
Not wanting to woof (so I won't mention what I think is the most glaring
omission: hint, the team had no (i.e., zero) seniors in 96-97), I can't
believe that N Dakota is only being picked for seventh.  Also, I think
that Cornell will return to the NC$$ next year.
