How the MIAA guy voted in the D2Football.com Top 25 (Week 2)

[Aaron Heintzelman]

Here's a look at my ballot for this week's D2Football.com Top 25.

Having been able to see both of Northwest Missouri's victories this year, I think they're worthy of the No. 1 slot over 1-0 Valdosta and 2-0 Minnesota State (both ranked ahead of them in last week's D2 poll and this week's AFCA poll).

I have the same 25 teams as this week's AFCA, except I went with Emporia over St. Cloud.

I probably have Winston-Salem and Henderson State ranked lower than a lot of people. I'm okay with that.

1: Northwest Missouri
2: Valdosta State
3: Minnesota State
4: WTAM
5: CSU-P
6: Missouri Western
7: Duluth
8: Grand Valley
9: IUP
10: West Alabama
11: Bloomsburg
12: Carson-Newman
13: Pitt State
14: Indianapolis
15: Shepherd
16: Tuskegee
17: UNC-Pembroke
18: Washburn
19: West Chester
20: Emporia State
21: Chadron State
22: Midwestern State
23: North Alabama
24: Henderson State
25: Winston-Salem

Again, I gotta say that Pitt should probably be ranked lower until they beat a quality opponent (i.e. someone who will at least finish with 6 wins).

Don't think Washburn or Emporia are deserving of being ranked.

Honestly I don't think the Cats are worthy of being #1 in the country, MO West shows more potential so far (imo).

The Bearcats don't have an answer at quarterback, and while it's great that Bolles can step in and take the reigns when Adams is struggling, that inconsistency will eventually catch up with them and cost them if they aren't careful. Offensively, the Bearcats are not an intimidating team by any means, however their special teams is looking great at this point.
