    I prefer a more objective approach even if it's just one game.

    Here are the rankings of all Division I teams on our schedule after 1 Game:

    Ranking - School - Change from Previous Week

    37 North Dakota State -14
    54 California +12
    105 UC Davis -3
    118 Weber State -3
    120 Montana +17
    131 North Dakota +24
    132 Montana State -4
    145 Cal Poly +17
    167 Portland State +6
    191 Sacramento State +7
    193 Southern Utah +1
    196 San Diego -8
    236 Lehigh -15

    It looks like North Dakota, Cal Poly, and Montana did better than expected after the first game while North Dakota State and Lehigh underperformed.

    It still amazes me that North Dakota State has been ranked #23 last week.
