I know it doesnt matter alot but curious if you think well drop out of the top 25. With the dumpster fire that happened in the top 10 and we rallied back. Do u think its enough to keep us in it.
Do we drop out of the top 25.

Probably 23 or so. Or maybe not. We drop out for winning so who knows.

Sad to think we literally would have probably been anywhere between 9-11 with a win

Yes, it's very likely, but at this point, it matters nil. The playoffs may be out of the question, but the conference title is still a solid possibility.
The team just needs to win, and fight for that. I am still proud of the hard fight tonight, and hope that effort continues.

Michigan State is a playoff contender and we were beaten but not blown out. I'm not referring to the score either. I mean the actual gameplay. That's a really freakin good defense and a good offense. We hung around and were able to make a run at it at the end. Is that what top 15 teams do? No. But it's what #20-25 teams do.

No we'll still be knocked out, but, it doesn't matter now, what matters is getting to the Big Ten title game and winning it. So, destroy the poor souls we play next.

this was our one chance to beat a quality team. we did not get it done. with a terrible o-line, inconsistent qb (i love ta, but he missed some easy passes), and un-creative gameplan (again, some good calls that we just did not execute. and some play calls that were doomed), it does not matter how close we ultimately came. people are going to look at who we beat. and the answer is no one. a 3 loss miami. a fau that will probably be the worst florida team. a fresno team that is just bad. an illinois team that lost to purdue. and an fcs team that had us on the ropes. this was our one chance and we came out flat on offense for 3 qtrs. (and on a day that seemed like everyone got an upset, which makes this hurt that much more). that is just not good enough.
time to hope that we win out and come out better prepared if we are fortunate enough to get to indy. these players deserve better than this. they are better than this. but this keeps happening...

You're right. I suppose I got carried away answering "should we drop out" instead of the question at hand which is "will we". Yes. We will. For a variety of reasons we've been deemed unimpressive by voters this year so I don't see the trend changing.

I say we should fall to Top 20-25, but we will be unranked.

Mother of hell, I mean, I'm not saying we're great, and I'm not going to be super positive, but, cripes, you guys, it's not the end of the damned world

i was feeling better for awhile, but then i came back down. i mean, it is what it is.
we did not get blown out. but we also played a team we could have beaten, but failed to execute. it just gets old.
like i said, we can hope for indy. we have the talent and when we play focused disciplined football, we can be pretty good. but, i do not know if we should already be so confident once again. i want to see us prove something.

Hey, I understand man. Hope I wasn't a douche to anyone, or was trying to enforce some kool-aid stuff.
