I can remember asking if there weren't some outliers that should be considered. I think I was told "nah," or something like that. So interesting to see the shake downs. Now we look ahead. I'm so very glad we have a relatively easy schedule so peeps can get better. I forgot that we had ND 3rd, as some folk thought they weren't going to be so good this year. Anyway, I love posts like this! Thank you.

Actually comparing to the current AP poll, JOHNNYC is closest.

Like Duke against UConn, you're not doing so well.

6) Tennesee
7) Louisville
8) Stanford

Does anyone else feel like Stanford is the quietest top five team ever?
