Why isn’t Dallas Baptist University in consideration for the top 25? They are 30-15 with a series wins over Memphis (3-0 sweep), 2 wins against Rice, and wins against Texas A&M, Baylor, and Oral Roberts.
Other than that, great rankings, better than ESPN.com’s which are a joke
Well first off, this is determined by averaging the main national polls, and then adding in my personal take. If a team is not in the other top 25’s I do not add them to the list. Dallas Baptist looks good considering their schedule is not overly tough. There are some big wins, though I would not count Memphis as a big win, considering that they are 16-31.
