Utah might be the strangest looking hexagon out there, but it is definitely unique.
It was the pioneer spirit and want of a new life that brought Brigham Young and his fellow settlers to the little groove between the Great Salt Lake and the rising peaks of the Wasatch Range. When he arrived, he noticed that there were no natural sweeteners other than honey available. Just bees. Lots of bees.

Before we get into the June Polls, a bit of a disclaimer. The timing of this poll was changed to coincide with a promotion from our sponsor, Odin Mortgage. So while this is coming out a couple of days after the Super Regionals, all of the votes were gathered prior to the weekend.
And while we won't know how this past weekend in Ohio or next weekend in Utah will affect how the pollsters thought of the teams, we have a pretty good idea as to how they felt heading into it.

Okay, so the song is talking about Dublin, Ireland, and while the interstates and friendly skies leading towards central Ohio are generally well paved and (hopefully) turbulence free, we begin our Midsummer Aussie Rules quest.
First stop: Dublin, Ohio.

The 2024 season is roughly 20 games old, it's time for our first Odin Mortgage Poll set. Teams are still waking up from hibernation, and starting to stretch their sea legs.
With a base built of the back of the preseason poll ranks - determined by the 2023 USAFL Nationals - a handful of coaches cast their vote for where they think each of the teams sits after a small sample size.
The answer to that question? Well, not much of a difference from seven months ago. But there was some movement.

Ah May. Spring air, warm sun, and for many clubs, well into the 2024 USAFL Season.
The dynamic makeup of the USAFL means that some teams have several games under their belt, perhaps a few metros here and there, and are well into midseason form. Others are just beginning to stir, beginning or are posed to begin their journey to hopefully raising a trophy or two in Austin come October.
