It's our first regular season Tuesday, but not quite our usual Tuesday episode. With all the cancellations there was no media poll this week, so we don't have a top 20 to go through.

Instead, we talk a bit about the issues that have emerged as the season pushes earlier, and possible solutions to what is becoming a serious problem.

Then, we recap some of the games that did get played. We talk surprising results, lessons learned, and the three players I thought did the most to stand out this weekend.

The NCAA lacrosse season is here, with games starting today on a positive Friday.

Before getting into games, we take a run through my full preseason All American ballot. Team by team and position by position, I reveal who I voted for, why I voted that way, how it's different from the final teams, and who the next group of players on my list was when I ran out of spots.

Then, after a few hot words about some very cold weather, we get into the weekend slate. I run through all the games that are (or were) on the schedule, update you on their status and how to watch them, and make some picks against the spread.

The 2026 college lacrosse season is upon us! This is a Wednesday edition of the Tuesday Top 20.

We focus on the preseason content today. To start, we take a spin through the Inside Lacrosse Top 50 players. I was lucky enough to vote again this year, so I give you the top of my ballot, who I had at one, the biggest disparities between where I had players and where they ended up, a few names I voted for that didn't make it, plus some names I didn't vote for that did.

Then, it's the preseason poll. I give you the entirety of my Top 20 ballot along with my reasoning for ranking each team where I did, and a few thoughts about their outlook on the year.
