2) If Missouri had put together the exact set of circumstances (dominant defense leads to North title, near-upset in Big 12 title game, and easy bowl win ... and loses transcendent star in offseason), they would be ranked in the #15-20 range to start the season. But Nebraska being Nebraska, they shoot straight to, in some cases, the Top 5. "But wait, wasn't Missouri a Top 10 preseason pick in 2008," you ask? Yes. And they finished 2007 ranked fourth. Nebraska finished 2009 ranked 14th, lost their best-by-far player, and is expected to rise ten spots.
