If you haven't already, take a look on the main board at the poll that was started by one of the ODU boarders for non-Power 5 schools plus BYU Nay and Army. He has also started a forum for the group as well.

Obviously it is new and has some growing pains but overall I think it has been a fantastic effort.

At least 5 of that 25 are now P5 schools -- #1, #3, #6, #7 and #25. Did I miss any others?

None of those are P5 schools. The American is not one of the Power 5 leagues (ACC, Big 10, Big 12, Pac 12, SEC).

Good deal WB!

I voted as well.
