Philadelphia, PA (Sports Network) - After extending its I-AA best winning streak to 10 games with a 41-7 victory against Dixie State, San Diego once again sits at the top of The Sports Network I-AA Mid-Major Top 10. The Toreros earned 15 of a possible 22 first-place votes and 211 points to claim the top spot.

Central Connecticut State scored the biggest win of the weekend and was rewarded with a two-spot jump to the No. 2 position. The Blue Devils won, 17-13, at Georgia Southern and collected seven first-place votes and 200 total points to claim the No. 2 ranking. Dayton holds steady at No. 3, while Monmouth is up two places to No. 4 after a victory against Morgan State. Albany falls three spots to No. 5 after losing to Fordham.

Duquesne drops one position to No. 6, and is followed by Drake at No. 7, Wagner at No. 8, Marist at No. 9 and St. Francis (PA) at No. 10. Marist is back in the rankings this week, while Stony Brook falls out of the top 10.

Nine of the top 10 teams are in action this week, with two games between ranked opponents. No. 6 Duquesne hosts No. 10 St. Francis (PA) and No. 8 Wagner visits No. 9 Marist. In other action, No. 1 San Diego visits Yale and No. 5 Albany is at Delaware.

First, congrats to the Blue Devils for getting votes in the national polls. Although CCSU may not be in the top 25, IMO there is no way GSU should remain there either.

Also, how does San Diego remain #1 in the mid-major poll? That's a complete joke. We have strong wins vs. a good team in Marist and of course #13 GSU. The latter win is unprecedented in for "mid-majors." What does USD do? - they beat up on lowly NAIA schools for home games. This is crap. (BTW - I am slowly loathing the "mid-major" term for football. We should strive for inclusion with I-AA, not seperation. The NEC is doing a fine job, but we need to shy away from this term soon.)

San Diego will be in New Haven to face Yale at the Bowl this Saturday. Lets go Elis, beat San Diego!!!!! Maybe someday soon the Bulldogs will invite CCSU for a game at the historic Yale Bowl, instead of the USD, Dayton, or Valpo. That would be great.
