Georgia beats UNranked Kentucky big and jumps 5 spots despite losses to UNRANKED South Carolina and UNRANKED Florida and only win over ranked team was Clemson in first week. Pretty ridiculous.

Arizona beats awful Colorado and jumps 5 spots. They do have win over #2 Oregon but still jumping 5 spots for beating Colorado is suspect. They lost to unranked USC as well as #11 UCLA

It's strange.......to say the least.

It is obvious there is now no rhyme or reason to why they rank teams the way they do. They have some eye-test stuff going on or something.

I would expect if we beat Wisconsin we will jump all the way into the top 10. It would only make sense.

That

#11 was a generous ranking for Nebraska who's best win was over Miami at home. To this point, the rest of their schedule is shit.

Nebraska is a 6 point underdog @ Wisconsin. That spread is the sentiment of the country and is less than many here predict. The attitude is "show me". If Nebraska wins @ Wisconsin they will have done more than LSU did. Don't beat them and Nebraska can go back to their comfortable third tier slot in the 20's somewhere.

If Nebraska wins out they won't be behind a two loss team. I'm confident in that.

I'm just doubtful they can win out.

A Nebraska win @ Wisconsin and a Miami win over FSU would put them at #9.

If they would have beaten MSU, this conversation would not exist

and your right we got ranked really high for doing nothing but that the inconsistent shit were talking about. so to make it right or even it out u drop us several spots on a bye week??. I believe we're really around where were supposed to be but then you have to ask why did they raise us up to near top ten. ..or did everyone find out that Dr Tom drugged everyone to put neb up there?

Yea all we can do is win.

I think we will need FSU to lose a game to stand a chance though even if we do win out.

Either that or we need ASU to lose @ Arizona and then Oregon lose in the PAC Championship game.

There will be a Big 12 team and there will be an SEC team. That is what we know for sure. PAC 12 and ACC are the only Conferences that can open a spot up for the B1G.

That's just it. We have to do more than just win. We can not control our own destiny in the B1G.

I am guessing if we had beat MSU the best we would be ranked right now would be 6, maybe even 7

edit: End of the season might of been different but we might still need other teams to help us out.

I don't get why we dropped so many spots on a bye week.

I guess someone caught on to the Tom politic helping neb rise.

Yes... 62-27

I've been thinking about what RA said and I think he might be right.

3 little bitches lost ahead of us, and now those 3 bitches have 2 losses a piece.

They should fall behind us, including Ole Miss.

I'm gonna say we're #12.
-------

while I've already seen the rankings my answer would have beeen--- won't happen....we just don't have any honest to God quality wins.

lol I forgot about that massacre but nothing recent to make that jump

I think the Huskers are a couple spots too low but I wouldnt include UCLA as a team that they should be ahead of. Georgia and honestly MSU should be behind Nebraska ( even with the Spartans win over Nebraska ). MSU has no other good wins and UGA has a solid win over Clemson but also lost to a average to below average USCe.

I might be in the minority and that's fine...but all I care about at the moment is winning a cottin pickin' B1G Conference Championship for the love of Pete!! If Nebraska had a more realistic chance of making it into the 4 team playoff then maybe I'd care more, but none of that even matters if they don't at least win the
B1G.

If NU wins the B1G and still doesn't make the 4 team playoff I will still be jerking off in my basement
