How time flies. The 3rd biweekly edition of the Boneyard Top 25 is rapidly approaching. Ballots are due to me, via PM, by 10:00 a.m. ET on Monday, Dec. 2. This poll should reflect all games played through Sunday, Dec. 1.

Lots of poll-impacting results have been logged, especially in the past few days, with potentially more coming today and tomorrow.

I know you have referenced it previously but what was the participation the first poll versus the second poll?
Thanks

13 received in second poll.

Let me add this also, by chance you know "roughly" how many ballots you received from other non-UConn fans posters?

Tough to be sure because some voters' names I don't have associated with a specific team.

But I'd estimate a little more than half (maybe 60%-ish) of the ballots are from UConn fans.

If this is your ballot, could you send it to me in a private message? That helps me keep track of them.

Sorry, I'm lost. Private message? Couldn't figure that out. It'll have to suffice as the ballot, I think...

No worries. I'll PM so that you can reply. You should see a message in your "Inbox" in a minute.

Ha I considered asking them to keep their ballot secret, and then I thought what the hey, maybe it can generate some controversy that will help publicize the poll :cool:

You may want to redo this

There is a potentially poll-changing game tomorrow between Northwestern and DePaul, the two Chicago schools. Interesting that Greenwich, Connecticut's Abby Wolf, the 6'5" post player who was for her first three years rarely used, is now leading the team in rebounds, second in scoring, for the 5-0 Northwestern team.

We'll see of DePaul gets whacked again tomorrow, and whether Northwestern deserves Top 25 consideration.
 
Reminder that ballots are due to me, via private message, in 12 hours (by 10:00 a.m. tomorrow).

(If you don't know how to private-message, just let me know here so that I can message you first.)

Not sure if @Lorcan is available to update his spreadsheet, so I thought I'd put together a list of *significant* results in the past 2 weeks. Please note: These are not all the games played by the teams listed, only losses and any wins that I think could reasonably affect the voting.

Thanks, Plebe. I’ve been traveling a LOT over the past week and just been busy with the snow hammering Denver.
 
Just a note that Syracuse lost to both Stanford and Green Bay in tournament play.

Thanks, I did it in a hurry. Just fixed it.

i see Plebe didnt fedex me any chicken fried steak and big red...... but I guess I'll submit a vote anyway. I look forward to seeing how the rankings come out.
 
Voting has closed. I'm pleased with the turnout (14 ballots), which was even slightly better than last time. I was afraid that the holiday weekend plus the late finish of games last night would undermine participation.

It might take me a while to tally the results today, due to my schedule and also because I need to seek clarifications from a few of the voters.
