I think Mines is ranked about right in the D2 poll. I have no doubt that they can beat any team in the country on the right day. The problem is that they have lost against two of the top teams in very close games. They showed that they belonged, but they still lost. I If they had won those two games, I would say that they would be 1 or 2 right now. To me, the biggest indicator of a great performance is a win. Mines has looked great in defeat twice, but it's still defeat.

Here are some of my takeaways from the various discussions on the polls over the last couple weeks. Yes, these polls don't ultimately mean a ton, but we are on a message board discussing D2 football so I think they are still fun. Colorado Mines is the hot topic. I think they are absolutely a top 10 team (I had them at #6). Sure they lost 2 games, but they were very good games to top 5 teams in the country. I have a much more pessimistic view of SR1 than most people. I think if you put those teams in the other regions they would not be as successful. It's easy to complain about where teams are ranked, it is not as easy as you would think to come up with a good ranking of your own that you would have to defend in the face of some of those same questions.

I think once you get past about #20 it gets a little tricky. There are probably about 10 teams you could rank in the end of these rankings.
