Men DII College Rankings
All of the top teams did what was expected of them, so they don't move, but we do have major movement further along the rankings.
UW-PLatteville kept winning and they shoot up 16 places. That's in part because #10 Loyola lost, leaving a bit of a void there. IUP keeps looking impressive and comes into the Top 10.
This week was a huge week for the Men's D2 rankings, with several non-ranked or lower-ranked teams beating those ranked higher.
This week in our D2 rankings we see a lot of changes. Why? Because teams are playing.
Anyone playing gets a bigger chance of moving up compared to an idle team, and we're seeing some of the teams who are trying to play struggle. That's OK. We applaud the work they're doing, and we hope to see the results soon.
We warned you that there would be major changes in the rankings in the opening weeks, and so, yes, this week, Week 2, we have major changes.
First off, we feel unhappy about having to drop out Shippensburg, UW-Platteville, Thomas More, and William Paterson. Their only crime, really, is not having played when others played. Expect to see these teams come back.
This year's Men's DII College Rankings kick off with a bit of a speculative kick to space.
