Wrong. We have to be ranked before the playoff.
As I sort of alluded to before, I think the final scores in those games will make all the difference.Landlord said:If we go 3-0 in non-con, we'll definitely receive some votes but I doubt we'll crack the top 25. Then we'll probably win a few and lose a few, but there's a pretty decent chance of cracking the top 25 before tOSU.
Technically the question didn't say when is the 'first' time we'll be ranked, just when will we be.
Nebraska could go into the Michigan game ranked if the planets align, essentially those in the late teens, 20's drop some games.
