NebraskaHarry Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 Looks the committee is trying to fire up the team. Quote Link to comment
teachercd Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 You should NOT be rewarded for losing to good teams. I hear this from high school coaches all the time "Well...we were 3-6 but we lost to six playoff teams" Ummm, okay? Guess what...if you are a "playoff" team you need to beat some of those teams.

Dr. Strangelove Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 4 teams with 2 loses ahead of us...LOL What a joke The only team I think we're better than, maybe, is Georgia. Otherwise Auburn, Ole Miss and UCLA are better than we are. You gotta beat somebody, which we haven't. Quote Link to comment
Kernal Posted November 12, 2014 Author Share Posted November 12, 2014 I didn't have much of a problem with Ole Miss and Auburn being ahead of us, but I fail to see what Georgia has done to deserve a ranking over us. They got boatraced by Florida. I guess the message the committee is sending is out-of-sight-out-of-mind. Good thing that was our last bye, or we might drop out of the polls altogether.

sd'sker Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 we needed msu to win. that really hurt us. so why didn't it hurt Bama when Ole Miss lost? they have beaten teams better than miami. im not saying why are we ranked low, im questioning the idea of a team that beat you losing and dropping you maybe i am wrong. but i think that hurt us and compounded our problem of lacking a quality win.

I can understand it hurting us, but to drop us 3 spots...that's pretty harsh. Quote Link to comment
sd'sker Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 Arizona and Georgia jump five spots and pass us by beating Colorado and Kentucky. What the f*ck, Tom? That is why I'm stumped. yeah Georgia has to be the most baffling to me. they have some real problems on run defense yeah, i do not know how you defend uga and zona. Quote Link to comment
Something Clever Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 And here I was hoping that we would sneak into the top 10, of course this happens Quote Link to comment
Kernal Posted November 12, 2014 Author Share Posted November 12, 2014 I wonder if this goober will be asked about Nebraska dropping three spots, or Georgia's and Arizona's rise. Probably not, since ESPN probably doesn't care about that. Quote Link to comment
LumberJackSker Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 Living in Arizona is going to be terrible for me now that ASU and U of A are ranked ahead of my Huskers, they really need to destroy Wisconsin so I don't have to hear about being ranked 16 Quote Link to comment
The Dude Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 We'll move up 4 spots after losing to Wisconsin. Quote Link to comment
ohiocornhusker Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 Nebraska needs to beat Whisky and Miami needs to beat FSU for us to move up. Quote Link to comment

I think you are right, I just think that it seems to have factored into us a little more than it has some other teams. Quote Link to comment
True2tRA Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 Pile on the points on every single team we play from here on out. Clearly the committee thinks the Big Ten is weak aside from Ohio State and MSU. They are giving NU a bit of respect but not much. We have to beat teams like they don't belong on the field with us. We should have done so against Purdue and we didn't. We want respect, we have to prove we are capable of destroying weak Big Ten opponents. Unfortunately the weak part of our schedule is gone. So now we have to make Wiscy an example. If we are capable of doing so, then we've got to prove it. Minnesota is not going to go lightly either. To me it just seemed like Purdue was our opportunity to show we were able to destroy weak opponents. We looked like a team still trying to figure it all out, offensively anyway. Quote Link to comment
shyndy Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 Nebraska needs to beat Whisky and Miami needs to beat FSU for us to move up. see this is kind of a problem for me, like Miami winning a game like that should help bolster our SoS but say we have a bye week and Miami beats FSU, we shouldn't move up or down depending on that game.
