Sagarin Rankings
We barely moved and are now 78th. Which is still 15th in the ACC, next to last of the Northeastern P4s, and first in NY State. Our SOS thus far is 11th! We are up to SIX Top 24 teams on our schedule. But we only play two teams ranked between 25th and 67th. But we only play two teams outside the Top 71! We are the 5th worst P4 and now behind UConn.
Potentially we are setup for SU vs BC with the loser being the 2nd worst P4 team this year (no one is catching Okie State), and worst P4 in the Northeast.
ACC has only four Top 24 teams, and half the conference is in the Top 49. But also has three of the bottom 5 P4s.
The SEC has ten of the Top 21, and the worst team is 47th.
The B1G has the Top 3, but has eight teams worse than the SEC's worst.
The American now has the highest G6 conference leader, and CUSA has the lowest ranked conference leader.
I would like to play Northeastern G6s OOC. Temple, Buffalo, Delaware, UMass (worst FBS team) are all 120th or worse. UConn, Navy, Army are all outside the Top 70.
Same for the Northeastern P4s. Rutgers, Maryland, West Virginia are all outside the Top 60. Only Penn State is highly ranked.
