chamrocck Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 I think we continue to be ranked higher than what we actually are. We have benefited from reputation last couple years but lots of teams experience this. At this point, I don't think we would beat Oregon or FSU. We don't have the playmakers on defense this year to stop Oregon. FSU would be a tight game but overall they look better than us. I don't see any clearly dominant team thus far this year. Would not be surprised to see a 2-loss SEC team like an LSU or Alabama end up playing an undefeated Boise St. for the championship. An undefeated OU, Stanford, or Wisconsin can also find their way to the championship. We are in that sort of next tier again where we have been with Bo now for a couple years...inside the top 25 but not really a top 10 team IMO. Let's hope we improve as season continues. 1 Quote Link to comment
Cy the Cyclone Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 Rankings are expected with the Huskers but WTF is this? The Cyclones have 27 votes in the Coaches poll??? Look out Top 25! Not bad for a team that's going to be playing in the Big 9 Eastern Mountain USA Costal League next year... Quote Link to comment

Definitely didn't mean to give you a +1 because I disagree. Quote Link to comment
