> Rather than complain about Harvard, ask > why Vermont isn't ranked above them ?? Clearly, because Harvard has been a top ten team for a long time, while UVM has not. The national polls are just a ratification of the past: there isn't a single voter(1) who has seen enough games of enough teams to make a personal comparison of talent. So the typical vote is a measured and intelligent evaluation of the teams in one conference, and then a crib off the old poll for all the other teams. Yet another reason why national polls are a waste of time. Greg Malden Let's Go Red! (Anybody know any good anti-Wilfrid Laurier cheers?) (1) Not even Mike! :^)
