LOL at Iowa dropping due to losing in OT to MSU. Iowa could (should) jump a few spots with all the losses ahead of them (Okie St, Louisville, Kentucky, Mich, Wisc).

Bet Texas is biggest gain of the week, to 17 or so.

ISU stays at 16 with Duke jumping ahead and Wisc falling below. Lots of movement expected this week though with all the losses this week.

14 sounds right but honestly I don't care where we are ranked because it seems when we get into the top ten we have issues with having a target on our back. It's a good problem to have but it just gives the teams we are much better than something extra to play for.

Uh why? Iowa really should have won that game. Playing a crippled MSU team at home should be a drop in my eyes.

16th.

Duke will pass us via "eye test" loss and road win vs. Pitt. Wisconsin will drop below us.

I could see Iowa State & Iowa swapping order, but since Iowa was 15th, pretty similar weeks, doubt voters will jump ISU over Iowa, but it's possible.

Not much other action around that area of the rankings.

We had an "eye test" road loss and a top 25 home win. Unfortunately not many eyes on espnu.

Yeah. It was a game they were supposed to win. They were solid favorites at home like we were with OU.

MSU at home missing 2 of their top 3 players. They won't drop far but they might drop.

Dawson isn't one of their top 3 players, but yes it was a bad loss for Iowa. Much worse than us losing to Kansas on the road.

Our ranking won't mean jack if we lose again in Stillwater. That's all I care about today...
