Sports Illustrated ranked WF in their preseason top 25 that year. WF was getting preseason buzz for the first time in decades. It all came crashing down.
Preseason polls and preseason all American and all conference teams are dumb.
There should be no rankings before October. Usually WF has to face an uphill battle to get ranked. It’s nice to get preseason juice, but no one will care about preseason rankings as the season moves forward.
Completely agree about no rankings before October. Completely disagree about the importance of preseason rankings. That's the starting point for actual rankings. It definitely matters as the season moves forward.
