Should move up considerably in the AP poll this week. How many?

UNI is overrated, no good wins and have struggled against some very mediocre teams. Also who is still voting for VCU at this point?

Honestly I feel like pre-Hoiball we wouldn't have ever been rated with UNI's resume. WSU is really shining a lot of light on their conference.

Where is Iowa on there? I just see ISU and UNI.

Honestly, I'd def put Iowa in front of Illinois, probably in front of UNI, and coin toss MSU. That's right now. By the end of the year I expect MSU to be clearly better.

Iowa should probably feel like they can be ranked, all the more motivation for their Superbowl week.

I know it's the way the polls work, but Texas being dropped 2 spots for road loss to #1 is kind of silly. Compare UT/UK and KU/UK. Also UT wasn't even at full strength and gave UK a game at home.

What coaches are still voting for Nebraska? 9 of them? Isolate those 9 coaches and we'll know why the Big Ten is consistently overrated in this poll.

Neb with 9 votes, Creighton with 12...yeah that makes sense.

Ugh, that sucks. Maryland will lose a bunch of games too with Dez Wells being out. Damn. Oh well just keep on winning.

It doesn't matter so long as we beat Iowa at CHA. Do that and odds are good we'll win out for the non-con and enter conference play around #14 + the number of teams in front of us who lost. The Maryland/Arkansas struggles will have no impact.

9 still? Wow. It blows my mind that so many people cannot find 25 better candidates for top25. It is not difficult. I can find at least 35 without much effort.

It's like those voters haven't followed the sport the past 3 weeks.

9 coaches...and this is from last year's 19 win bubble team that got blown out by Baylor in the first round and has NEVER finished the season as one of the top 32 teams, ever. But they have a shiny new building and they brought back a high volume chucker, plus Big Ten, so....rank 'em.
