Goff Rankings
This is actually a very difficult NCR D1 ranking to put together.
That is the case because, in part, some of the higher-ranked teams lost, but they lost against very, very strong D1A opposition such as Life University and Mary Washington. At the same time, we have some teams lower down in the Top 20 that won, but they end up moving down.
Our latest D1AA rankings see not a ton of change up near the top, but we did see #18 Kansas State beat #5 Kansas.
This was an entertaining NCR D1 ranking to update, but also a tough one to work on.
Some major moves this week.
There were only three games where both teams involved were ranked D1AA teams. We had a non-ranked team (Columbia) beating a ranked team (Binghamton). We had a D1AA team beat a D1A-level team (Sam Houston State over Texas A&M), and a team that tied a NCR D1 team (Tennessee).
As we have said before, the opening week of rankings is a bit of a guess and relies heavily on last year.
But small changes in teams can make for big changes in their fortunes. SLU's win over Washington University was a good example of that, as was RPI's win over Albany.
