Polls 2021

I was hoping the Huskers and Coach Frost could help us out today, but Nebraska's kicker can't hit a 31-yard FG...looks like Nebraska heading for another one of those painful close losses...this time to O$U. There's still time in the game though for a late miracle.

With OSU struggling against Penn St and Nebraska they would have to fall in the rankings. #sarcasm

Oh yeah I am SURE that Ohio St. nearly losing to a 3-6 Nebraska team will count against them like our "struggles" against Tulane and Navy.

At least Wake Forest lost removing the threat of an undefeated ACC champ

[Josh Rexhausen]

You know what is a joke is? The announcers in this game talking about Purdue being ranked because they beat Iowa and Michigan State both ranked teams. The problem is the Big Ten is being overrated and feeding off of itself.

[regoarrarr]

Still, despite our lackluster showing, we got the win and many other good results

Michigan State and Wake Forest both lost, removing 2 other undefeated teams.

Baylor lost which removes them from winning out and being a 1-loss Big 12 champ. Now we have to really root hard for them to beat Oklahoma next week.

Now Geaux LSU, Indiana and Washington tonight

[Josh Rexhausen]

Almost every top 10 team "struggled" today.

Both polls love Bama. However, they are bucking the CFP with UC in the top 4 of both.

"However, style points matter. They've always mattered, and Cincinnati did not play well against Navy, Tulane and Tulsa. In fact, the Bearcats could have lost a couple of those games, and that will definitely be held against them."

Could have lost, but did not....so it'll be held against us. Versus teams that ACTUALLY LOST and benefited. What a bunch of malarky.

[red_n_black_attack]

Not losing matters more than style points. As teams lose and more chaos will happen, we need to keep winning. Too much familiarity and motivation when playing these conference games. Add in the AAC teams are slightly upset/envious of the Big 12 invite and are trying to show they deserve the next look.

UC is ranked #5 in the second playoff rankings released 11/09/2021.

The committee punished MI State for their loss at Purdue, dropping them to #7 behind #6 MI, whom the Spartans beat last week.

[bearcatbret]

Yet, the committe keeps Oregon ahead of tosu because of the head to head even with the bad loss by Oregon. Maybe the committee is feeling heat for never inviting a PAC team.

More like they are hanging onto Oregon as their last hope of keeping us out without looking completely corrupt

At least positive movement.
