Certainly a fair spot to put the AE although IMO the AE will be a bit higher. I doubt this takes into account the immediate eligibility of Will Harris, should help not only UA but also the entire AE. I think we'll be a spot or two higher.

 

Last year was about as bad as it gets for the AE. Hopefully we won't see that type of season out of the AE for a while, now that some of the new coaches are getting some traction...Leibovitz, Monroe etc.

I'm glad to see the IVY ranked about where it should be. I recall last year being confused about what I perceived to be too high of a ranking for the Ivy League. Perhaps Cornell was good last year, but beyond that? Anyways ... .

Ivy league is overinflated in most sports. Football could be the worst. Their reputation is living on the past and their vast name recognition. I can't wait for the Albany/Yale football game next year!

You are confusing me; I thought the game was 2010?

So did I, but there was an article that listed it as next year. I'm confused myself. I originally thought the game was to replace Army for 2010. The article (can't find it) said Albany was to replace Holy Cross next year.

 

I'd rather see it in 2010 as we don't need any "wins over AQ conferences that year" because of the NEC AQ.....
