Men D1AA College Rankings Fall Week 6
Men D1AA College Rankings Fall Week 6
James Madison's tie with Virginia Tech gives them a boost.
We skipped last week in DIAA so here's the update for Week 6 with two weeks worth of results to fuel it.
Overall, however, it's not like we saw a result from a week ago potentially make a big change and then that was followed up with another result.
Really the results that forced major moves were both ties. Kansas State and Arkansas tying, and JMU tying Virginia Tech made for Arkansas and JMU to move up. James Madison, especially, hadn't really played games that could give us much of an indication of where they rank, so they went from unranked to #21. They could easily move further up.
Virginia Tech, for their part, got pinged for that tie with JMU, but we think they will move back up. Arkansas is poised to move up, too.
