      They do not ask by how many. Winning in 3OT by a field goal followed by intercepting in the end zone to end the game still reads the same. RPI is now undefeated at 3-0 and should lose no ground in the Division III top 25 and might even pick up a spot or two. Sure wish we could say the hockey team was 3-0 this season!

        I thought the quote, and I believe it was former captain John Kennedy, was, "They don't ask how, just how many." The only thing is, with subjective polling, they are going to see that "how" in the 3OT, and I wouldn't be surprised if we lose ground. Either way, it puts us in a good position with one more game to go before the first bye and league play. I'm not sure if the league still has an autobid with 6 teams...

                In honor of Brady Wiffen, today is 16 September 2018. There are 21 days (3 weeks) until RPI's next game.


                This is based upon 7 October 2018 for the start of next season.

                  Not to be a bringer of bad news, but did you happen to see what Union did to a very decent #25 ranked Springfield team? The Dutchman's shoes are not going to come easy this year. I agree with you that we could actually slip a position or two in the rankings as only 3 ranked teams in the top 25 lost and the ones who won, did so by very lopsided scores as it usually goes early in the season.

                      Do they ever come easy? You still have to play the game.

                      And the pollsters prefer to see lop-sided scores for the ranked.

                          FWIW, Jesper Ohrvall is no longer in the online RPI directory although Emil still is.

                            Look, if anyone is joining that, it'll be me. Every memo I get, I keep waiting to see if all of us NASA CS folks will get rolled into it.

                              The football rankings are out and RPI moves up a notch to #20. With the top heavy power just above, doubtful we go much higher at any time this year.

                                Next week's a tune-up, but everything after that is so important. With only 6 teams in the league, there's no room for error.
