CAA Football Heads FCS Top 25 Teams
National-Best Seven CAA Football Squads Ranked
Seven of CAA Football's 11 squads appeared in the first Top 25 of the season as the FCS debuted its 2011 poll this week. CAA Football's total is three more than any other conference represented in the preseason poll and one more than it began the 2010 season with in the same poll.
William and Mary, selected to win the league's championship by its head coaches earlier this preseason, logged 20 first-place votes and will begin the season at No. 3. The Tribe, and CAA Football's next highest ranked squad Delaware (No. 5), extended streaks to 13-consective weeks ranked among the poll's Top-10. The Blue Hens (2) were one of four CAA Football squads to receive first-place votes, including William and Mary, No. 10 New Hampshire (1) and No. 14 Villanova (2). James Madison (No. 15), Richmond (No. 16) and Massachusetts (No. 25) round out the league's seven ranked teams. The Spiders and Minutemen return to the poll for the first time since dropping out at the end of the 2010 regular season, while the Dukes were last part of the poll Nov. 1, 2010.
In addition to its seven among the Top 25, three more league squads logged votes in the polling process including Maine (10 points), Rhode Island (11 points) and Old Dominion (5 points).
CAA Football is poised for yet another run at the NCAA Division I National Championship in 2011. The league, which will welcome Old Dominion to its fold in in 2011, returns six All-Americans and 12 First Team All-CAA Football award winners from 2010. CAA Football has seen one of its league members advance to the Division I National Championship game seven of the last eight seasons and each of the last five years. Delaware and James Madison (2003-04) and Richmond and Villanova (2008-09) twice earned consecutive National Championships for the league in its championship appearance span dating back to 2003. CAA Football will again add to its full-time member roster in 2012 when Georgia State joins the fold.

The Harris Interactive poll, Coaches' poll and computer rankings each comprise one-third of the BCS standings.
To derive the three percentages, each team is assigned a point total (1 for No. 1, 2 for No. 2, etc.) The two poll percentages are calculated by dividing each team’s point total by a maximum 2825 possible points (Harris) and 1475 possible points (USA Today). The computer rankings percentage is calculated by dropping the highest and lowest ranking for each team and then dividing the remaining total by 100 (the maximum possible points). The BCS Average is calculated by averaging the percentage totals of the Harris Interactive Poll, USA Today poll, and computer rankings. The teams’ BCS Averages are ranked to produce the BCS standings. The six computer ranking providers are Anderson & Hester, Richard Billingsley, Colley Matrix, Kenneth Massey, Jeff Sagarin and Peter Wolfe. Each computer ranking provider accounts for schedule strength within its formula.
