    Homer alert!

    No way Husks should be above Buffs one week after they lost to them

    That was a game given away by Nebraska. G5 loss at home. It’s fair.

    Both have the same record. Buffs just beat you guys. Perhaps if you had a P5 win you could make that argument. But you don’t as of right now

    And Nebraska doesn’t have a G5 loss. Complete win vs NIU sans fans in the stands get to kick PATs.

    The group of 5 team was more physical and better coached than Nebraska though.

    To be fair Iowa State’s only win is a triple overtime thriller over an FCS team

    Agree.

    The top 3 are easy. 4-7 could be a mix of anyone. Except there’s no way Nebraska should be above Colorado.

    Maybe. But right now they should be ranked above the husks.

    Imo based on results and play on the field

    I feel like I am taking crazy pills. We are not going to agree. But... if you acknowledge it’s a possibility CU wins two more games, you believe they may not be that good. CU has the lowest ceiling of anyone of the 8. It was a shit loss/meltdown by Nebraska.

    Under this guise Baylor is a top team in the Big 12 and Minnesota in the Big Ten.

    Power Rankings are results + plus on field performance imo.

    After just 3 weeks, it’s a small sample size and I don’t think a team should that won the prior week should be behind the team they beat.

    If you’re right about CU, Nebraska will jump them. It’s not like I’m arguing husks need to be behind them the entire season.

    I’d flip OSU and ISU but looks about right. ISU could be as high as 3 and low as 6 imo.

    Hard to judge them right now
