Title: Still #246
Post by: setshot on November 13, 2011, 08:10:24 AM
Even with our first win in 30 games,Sagarin still ranks Valpo at the very bottom of the ratings chart - #246. A win against mighty Davidson (#243) could change our standings. Hell, we beat Campbell (now ranked #216),so why not Davidson. Go Valpo!

Not entirely surprising given that the home advantage in the Sagarin rating is 3 points and Valpo won by (you guessed it!)  3 points.  Let's enjoy the win. 

By the way, mighty Dayton is #215, and arch foe Butler is #224...

The other threads were probably getting too long for setshot. Sometimes it's easier to open up a new thread than to try and figure how far down the old thread you had already read without missing a few of the posts. Not that I'm advocating opening new threads when you think the old thread is too long for yourself but it certainly is easier to find the newest posts. I get the concept but for board cleanliness it is not a great idea. This leads to too many threads.
