Does anyone have the ending Top 25 for 2005? If so, what teams ended up in the final Top 25 that were not in the starting Top 25 of 2005.

I personally like the Top 25 after the regular season. I think it gives you a true ranking of where the team are. D1 had 7 teams in the top 25 and it's much easier for them to stay in the top 25. With 18 D2 teams in the top 25 they are going to knock each other out in the early rounds. I could be wrong but I would guess there are more then 7 D1 teams in the final Top 25 just because the D2 teams that went out in rounds 1, 2 and 3. I'm sure someone has it so we can see.

Whats true ranking is where best team plays best team, not best team vs best team in district, were talking the whole state play each other. Thats what I believe is true ranking system way. Playoffs gives you some ideas where really teams are and how they can compete with good teams, not just district in regular season.

By the way, Correct me if I am wrong...

We firmly believe that a Top 25 ranking once the postseason starts is beyond pointless. The great thing about a playoff is that it is all settled on the field. We do the rankings as a way to try and give a picture of who the best teams are when there's no tangible way of figuring it out. Once the playoffs start, it all takes care of itself.
