CAA standings and upcoming games
After week three we have a 6 way tie for first. NU is listed first since they have 3 road wins. I would have listed JMU next since they also have three road wins. I know they have two home losses but the other 4 each have 1 road win and 1 home loss, I think the 2 extra road wins puts them in the best position even though they have 1 extra home loss. But I calculated the win% using the RPI formula (1.4 wins for road wins and 0.6 wins for home wins, 1.4 losses for home losses and 0.6 losses for road losses) and that put them at the lowest win % of the 6 teams tied for 1st. So they are last out of the six teams tied for 1st.

RE: CAA standings and upcoming games
So looking at the middle third of the season:
- NU has 5 of the 6 games @ home with 4 games against the other teams tied for 1st. The road game is @ CofC, the five home games are Hofstra, Towson, Elon, UNCW, and W&M.
- William & Mary has 3 at home and 3 on the road with 3 of the games versus the other teams tied for 1st. The home games include Elon, JMU, and Delaware. The away games include Hofstra, Delaware, and NU.
- UNCW has 2 home games and 4 road games with 3 against the other teams tied for 1st. The home games are vs. Delaware and CofC, the four road games are @ Drexel, JMU, Hofstra, and NU.
- Towson has 2 home and 4 away with only 1 game vs. the other teams tied for first. They will be traveling to NU, Drexel, CofC, and Elon and will hosting CofC and Delaware.
- Hofstra also has 3 at home and 3 on the road with 4 of the games versus the other teams tied for 1st. The home games include Elon, W&M, and UNCW. The away games include Drexel, JMU, and NU.
- JMU has 3 at home and 3 on the road with 3 of the games versus the other teams tied for 1st. The home games include Drexel, UNCW, and Hofstra. The away games include Elon, W&M, and Drexel.
- Elon also has 3 at home and 3 on the road with 5 of the games versus the other teams tied for 1st. They host JMU, Delaware, and Towson; they travel to W&M, Hofstra, and NU.
- CofC has 4 home games and 2 on the road with 4 against the top 6 teams. CofC will travel to Towson and UNCW and host Delaware, Towson, Drexel, and NU.
- Drexel has 4 home and 2 on the road with 5 against the top 6 teams. They travel to JMU and CofC, they host UNCW, Towson, Hofstra, and JMU.
- Delaware has 1 home and 5 road games with 4 against the top 6 teams. They host W&M. They will travel to UNCW, CofC, W&M, Towson, and Elon.
Out of the bottom 4 teams
- CofC probably has the best schedule. We will be at home for 4 of the games and only 4 against the top 6 teams. We get a chance to even up with Drexel and get an advantage against Delaware.
- Delaware has to have the hardest schedule with 5 road games and 4 games against the top six. They could easily be locked into a Friday game by the end of the next 3 weeks.
Out of the 6 teams tied for 1st
- I think NU has the best schedule over the middle part of the season and has a great chance to separate themselves from the other 5. Sure they have 4 games against the others tied for 1st, but all of those games are at home.
- Towson probably has the next best schedule, They do have 4 road games but only 1 of those are against the other teams tied for 1st.
- UNCW probably has the worst schedule out of the top 6. They have 4 road games and 3 of them are against the other top 6.

RE: CAA standings and upcoming games
What I am hoping for is that another team can enter the 1st place tie by the end of the season - just so someone finishes tied for first but then has to play in one of the opening round games on Pillow-Fight Friday.

That would be incredibly difficult, but hilarious at the same time
