LOUISIANA LAFAYETTE |
The Ragin' Cajuns will have a home site advantage of sorts when they host collegiate nationals at Bennett's ski school in Baton Rouge Louisiana. Will they nip the Warhawks? |

FLORIDA SOUTHERN |
The Moccasins have won all of their tournaments this year, beating #6 Rollins twice in a head-to-head, and then won the very competitive Eastern Regionals in convincing fashion. Are they better than ULL? |

ALABAMA |
The Crimson Tide took second at Eastern Regionals but had some significant issues on their trick team due to boat selection. Will they put it all together at Nationals and crack the top 3? |

ARIZONA STATE |
The Sun Devils are the biggest movers in this week's poll, just by simply showing up. The stress of their first tournament didn't seem to make a difference. Rookie Steven Brooks is a stud for ASU. |

ROLLINS |
The Tars have been consistently in the top 6 all year and look to keep that same ranking after Nationals. They are just a couple girl trickers and jumpers from being an elite team. |

WISCONSIN LACROSSE |
The Eagles are hands down the biggest surprise of the year. They went from never going to Nationals, to going undefeated in the Midwest and winning Regionals. Will they stay consistent in LA? |

OHIO STATE |
The Buckeyes had a slow start to the season, their ascent has been anything but. After placing 2nd at MW Regionals, don't be surprised to see OHS as the highest placing MW team at Nationals. |

CINCINNATI |
The Bearcats were powered by 4 individual podium placements at Midwest Regionals and took 3rd place for their first invitation to Division 1 Nationals. How will they fare against the best of the best? |

PURDUE |
The Boilermakers suffered their lowest Midwest Regionals placement since 1993, and still moved up in the national poll. The Midwest clearly has depth. Look for them to avenge with a Division 2 title. |

TEXAS A&M |
The Aggies shocked everyone including themselves to qualify for Division 1 Nationals by placing third at South Central Regionals. They have to ski perfect for a chance at the Top 10, but its possible. |

CLEMSON |
The Tigers are a talented team, that is feeling the loss of JJ. Their men are still able to carry them, let's see how the women hold up. They are a formidable force in Division 2 as well. |

WISCONSIN MADISON |
The Badgers were thought to be on the outside looking in, but earned their birth in Division 2 Nationals. Can they repeat their Division 2 title and bikini dance from Nationals in 2009? |

UC DAVIS |
The Aggies have their work cut out for them in Division 1. Look for a great battle between them, The Mustangs and the other Aggies for top 10 placement. |

CAL POLY |
The Mustangs snuck up in the poll based off their 2nd place finish at Western Regionals. Can they move further up the poll and end up as a top 10 team in the nation? |

TEXAS STATE |
The Bobcats may have sandbagged their way to a Division 2 appearance as opposed to making it to Division 1 and skiing against the big boys to see where they stand. If that is so, that’s a shame. |

IOWA |
The Hawkeyes are the most exciting team in the country right now fresh off their Wildcard Tournament win on Monday night to get the 22nd and last invite to Nationals. Could place top 5 in Division 2. |

T-20 |
NORTH CAROLINA |
The Tar Heels had a very tough Regionals in many areas and are happy to have salvaged a top 5 placement. If they put it all together at Nationals they also could challenge for a top 5 D2 placement. |

MISSOURI STATE |
The Fighting Golden Panda Bears were not able to pull off magic twice by winning the wild card again, but they are still a top 20 team in the nation. Strong season for them. |

CHICO STATE |
The Wildcats have received votes every single week and FINALLY crack the top 20 in Week 4 on the heels of their 4th place finish at Western Regionals. Welcome to the Big Show Wildcats. |
