I’ve missed this ballot the past two weeks, and I’m not sure how you guys have managed to survive without it. Well I’m back and I’ve brought a couple new schools with me.

Georgetown had a monster week, Maryland avoided a disastrous week and Virginia almost lost to Virginia Tech. Same 10 teams as last week, but with some changes in rankings. Plus, more pith!

Every week, The DC Sports Bog (an online site managed by The Washington Post) will post their Atlantic 11, which comprises the top 11 D-1 college hoops teams within DC, Maryland and Virginia (27 in total, for those counting at home). This poll is conducted by a group of voters, myself included, who vote for their top 10. Every week, I’ll post my ballot here.

Lots of big wins for the A11 teams this week, including Georgetown’s buzzer beater against Butler and GW’s 2OT thriller against Richmond. Virginia swept the week to stay the undisputed #1 team in the A11, but this Melo Trimble ankle break stole the show in the A11 as the Terps blew out Michigan State.

Tough week for the Atlantic 11, as four of the top six couldn’t escape the week without dropping a game. Maryland stays at #2 spot after a 1-1 week, with their loss happening on the road versus a very feisty Illinois team. VCU is breathing down their neck, in the top heavy A11. 

At the bottom of the poll, several underwhelming teams battle it out for the chance at pithy comments. Commonwealth big names like Virginia Tech and George Mason still can’t crack the list, and with the Hokies traveling to Louisville and North Carolina this week it doesn’t seem like they’ll break through anytime soon.

Even though it’s the “Atlantic 11”, they only ask the voters for their top 10 teams. Just in case anyone thought I was that poor at math.
