It is strange that we moved down a slot to #14 in the AVCA rankings and up to #7 in the NCAA computer model.
Maybe it has to do with Penn. St. knocking off the #3 team on the road and us beating two average teams on the road, although we did knock off the Nittany Lions early on? The RPI is important, and here is another polling opinion:
9. Georgia Tech
Welcome, Georgia Tech! You may have not been expecting this, but No. 9 and 10 were the most difficult to choose. I had the choice of OSU, Purdue, Baylor, Georgia Tech and UCLA. I went with Tech here, as they are 17-3 on the season and with some of the best wins out of the teams in consideration with victories Pitt and Penn State. Their three losses are to Louisville, Notre Dame, UCLA, all good teams. A win over Pitt is especially impressive. Plus, this team has a strong RPI and some really impressive players in Julia Bergmann and Mariana Brambilla.
Nebraska jumps up to No. 5 and Georgia Tech and Baylor enter this week's Power 10 rankings.
