Do we crack the Top 25 this week? Do we care?

Rankings mean nothing. Saturday is the most important game we play.

We may get a some votes....not likely  top 25 IMO....
I think the team will play inspired ball if lacking respect and the longer that lasts the better for us.

I agree. Under the radar is the best place to be.

Seems like when we get that distinction too early in the season it is a curse. Rather stay below the radar until the end.

Harvard and LC each get 2 votes. James Madison (2-4) and Cal Poly (3-3) both in top 25. Go figure. No curse yet.

The consolidated computer ranking have us ahead of Colgate and Holy Cross.  That doesnt mean anything of course, but just found it interesting.

Not much love being shown by the polls.  AGS barely recognized Lafayette's existence before this week.  The Pards have now struggled up in their "others receiving votes" category to the equivalent of a no. 32 ranking, far behind both Colgate and Holy Cross.  TSN does not have us in the Top 25 and I have not seen their "others receiving votes" yet.  TSN took a hit a few weeks ago however, when they had Lehigh (0-4 at the time) rated higher than Lafayette and a few other schools having respectable seasons.

These things are a joke.  After they get past the top 10 these people have as much knowledge and information about FCS football as a Lapland reindeer herder.  That's why I don't vote anymore.  I didn't know that Eastern Washington and Northern Arizona were schools with football programs and not merely large empty areas on maps of the western U.S.

We are 25 in the GPI (gridiron power index) ahead of both Colgate and Holy Cross.  I also think these polls are poor, but at least one area has us ranked.
