Div. B LaxPower Rankings

Didn't steal it, my man. Coach Yost brought it with him.

I don't want to be that guy but it was Coach Herbert O. "Fritz" Crisler that stole/brought it along. I love knowing random sports facts!!

for the doubters out there- http://www.umich.edu/~bhl/athdept/football/coaches/hcrisler.htm

I would try as hard as possible to not associate myself with Princeton Football. I think my high school team could give them a good run for their money.

Considering Calvin hasn't lost why should they loose their #1 spot, a #1 seed should be control its own destiny. UC- Irvine is obviously a better team then orginally thought by preseason pollsters but they have only beat the #22 and #24 teams, and two other non-ranked teams. How is that deserving of a #1 spot?? But I am glad that we have a b division championship this year so arguments like this although fun during the regular season, will all settled in Blaine.

A #1 ranking in div. B this year doesn't mean much because we haven't had a championship to see how everyone competes at a national level. When top ranked teams compete against each other(non-#1) this first year, and they play well, #1 is open for the taking in my opinion

i'd have to agree with you on that one. even though calvin is ranked #1 in the preseason, there isn't any real justification for that. i'd say it should go to the team that has given real reason for a #1 spot. Though its true that calvin hasn't done anything to 'lose' the number one spot, it should go to a team that has proven itself in real, quality, nationally ranked competition. It's a tough call, a preseason #1 hasn't done anything to 'lose' it, and there must be some merit (perhaps small) in a preseason #1 ranking, but at this point, a team like calvin hasn't necessarily done anything to earn or prove it either, while there are teams out there that have played and won against ranked opponents. can't wait to see the new poll, can't wait for blaine even more, though
