Does it seem like it's been a while since we've been in the top 5? I started thinking about that yesterday. I started wondering how many teams have spent time in the top 5 since Bo's been here. Nebraska spent one week in the top 5 over the last 7 seasons. I only used the AP rankings for the data. The following teams have spent at least one week in the top five since 2008 (no particular order): Georgia Ohio St USC Oklahoma Florida Missouri LSU Alabama Texas Penn St Texas Tech Utah South Carolina West Va k State Baylor Miss St Oklahoma St Ole Miss Boise St VaTech Cincinnati Iowa TCU Auburn Oregon Stanford Michigan St Wisconsin Florida St Clemson Arkansas Notre Dame

If there was someone out there like Urban Myer. You know, I feel like we could lure in a top-tier coach from the SEC. Because, it's tough to make a NC game in their conf. Too much competition. If they came here (and kept recruiting) they could compete for conf/NC more often.

What about Scott Frost?

I like the Conference Champ guaranteed bid scenario, but doesn't that mean you could use your non-conf games as practice? I like the scenario mentioned earlier about conf champ getting in but including the caveat that you have to be top 12 or something. I'm having a hard time understanding this article. It actually talks about the conf champs getting automatic bid to the CFP just like everyone's been talking about.

Long time reader-first time poster. I was hoping I'd have a far more important topic for my first post, but I noticed that the game tracker says "April 1" for the Spring game. Huskers.com is saying April 12 which I confirmed with the Athletic Department. Don't want anyone to make plans based on the April 1st date.
