A little surprised they didn't drop.

If by "they" you mean the Big Red, they do have the longest unbeaten streak in the nation.
Hey, I aint arguing; if it were up to me they'd be #1 every week. I was just thinking that a less-than-stellar score v. RIT might bias those pesky western voters.
I'm having trouble remembering a time in the past few years when Cornell's moved down after having done nothing but win the previous weekend, even if it is a weak win against a poor team.
Teams don't usually drop after a winning weekend unless the teams around them had a particularly good weekend. NoDak and Michigan both split and Maine swept but only against Lowell. So no reason to drop us.

I wouldn't expect a drop just because we played a bad team either.

Meaning that the pollsters have more sense than the RPI? :-P (Fortunately, as I said before the game, it doesn't count towards our RPI.)

Sad. I haven't laughed so hard in a long time. And where are all those extra smiles? I get an empty popup in Firefox AND IE.
