2024-25 NCAAW Mid-Major+ User Poll Top 20: Week 20 & Autobids Only Poll

User Poll

This is not the main NCAAW user poll. There won't be a Week 20 "main" user poll for the overall top 25 per r/AtlasTelamon24 , in part due to the second week of conference tournaments having very little games to impact movement for power conferences this year. For week 19 overall top 25 rankings go here

These are poll results for the week ending 3/16/25

Mid-Major+ Rankings include teams in all conferences except the ACC, B10, B12, BE & SEC

The "+" in the poll name is a nod to the varied usage of the term "mid-major", as there are teams in this poll sometimes discussed as outliers, high or low majors etc. and the scope of this poll includes ALL teams outside of the 5 conferences mentioned above. Mid-Major is not an official term used by the NCAA and is not interpreted the same by all. The primary purpose of this poll is for starting conversations about the teams themselves, not the concept of a mid-major. Remember have fun and be courteous to others!

Two polls were voted on this week: the standard weekly top 20, and an additional poll ranking only the automatic qualifiers from the 26 "Mid-Major+" conferences .
