Ken Pomroy would be the first person to tell you that it's too early to rely on the rankings.
Here is my deal....it's not that I don't see the fun in beating up on Dayton. It's just that I think Weber deserves a little credit. They're not a top program, but they're not dogshit either. One of their losses is at Utah State. I know Utah State does not play in a top level conference, but they do have one of the best home records in the nation. They're oftentimes one of those teams that appears in articles about how they can't get big teams to play them at home. You don't just go into Wild Bill's house and come out with a win....

Weber did lose, but they played them pretty tough there. Dayton isn't an elite program, but that's not the easiest place for road teams either. They traveled across the country, went in there, and won. I know people want to bash Dayton, but I just think Weber deserves some credit.

All but Utah. They play some of them, but not all of them. Also, with Southern Utah now being in the same conference as Weber, I guess that alters things somewhat.
Iowa opted to put a stop to the four div1 Iowa teams having the round robin tournament. They're still playing Iowa State and UNI, but not Drake.
I think the Big Five and the Front Range are the only two mythical conferences that are still going strong.Last edited by xubrew; 11-30-2012 at 08:20 PM.
