It means nothing--other than to say "look who we're tied with"---but got to be a confidence boost for team, to see votes in the Top 25.

Pretty cool to see us in there again after eight years! And tied with you-know-who? Quite a fall for them...

A bit off topic but Michigan going from not Top 25 to #4 is quite a jump, even with 3 impressive wins.

 

[Eight Legger]

Yeah that must be one of the highest entry points ever in the AP.

Being among "others receiving votes" helps confidence, name recognition, and R-E-S=P=E-C-T.

Feinstein is so far up VCU arse, I'm shocked he voted for us. But hilarious, we are tied with VCU now.

On a far bigger note, this is really good news for us. We got a great start to the season and our players deserve to see that being recognized on a national level.

If we are getting this type of respect with the games we have played so far, I guess some people think our schedule hasn't been too weak so far.
