GRR D1A Rankings 2023-24 Week 8

The body of work of a team matters a lot in these rankings so with Life playing what is currently a tougher schedule than Lindenwood, their results have been strong enough to move them past Lindenwood.
This past weekend's effort against Queens was kind of a tipping point with that.
The steady improvement of Mary Washington and Mount St. Mary's is evidenced in their move up.
We also have two new teams in our Top 25 with Illinois moving in after they beat Wisconsin, and Texas getting a second solid result in this fall.
