When Will the Huskers Be Ranked?

When is the first time the Huskers will be ranked in any poll (AP, Coaches, CFP)?

Count me in for two decisive wins after Colorado win and they’ll be t25. Perfect trap game with Troy coming in and Michigan the following week

 
Wrong. We have to be ranked before the playoff.




Technically the question didn't say when is the 'first' time we'll be ranked, just when will we be.

In that scenario we would indeed be ranked at that time :P

So 20 pessimists out there... I'm guessing more than half of you are in the wait and see mode first. I think this poll will hold more weight after the first 2 games. Tough to say right now, but I think beating a 2-1 ranked Michigan squad will get us just barely outside that top 25 then a resounding win over Purdue is enough to get in at 5-0.

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.
As I sort of alluded to before, I think the final scores in those games will make all the difference.  

If we completely s#!thouse those guys, I'd be really surprised if we're not in the top 25 after that stretch.  If we beat them 34-28,  there's probably little chance.

 
Nebraska could go into the Michigan game ranked if the planets align, essentially those in the late teens, 20's drop some games. Otherwise beating Michigan should do it as long as Huskers are unbeaten prior to the game. It's going to be exciting, it's going to be heartbreaking, but let's just hope it wont be downright stupid.

 Who are some upset candidates in week 1?

21 UCF at UCONN 

17 WVU at Tennessee

25 LSU vs 8 Miami

20 VT at 19 FSU

Week 2

MSU at KSU

Week 3

UCF at UNC

BSU at OSU

LSU at Auburn

Who am I missing in that range?

 
I really hope nebraska is ranked going into the michigan game. I sure would like to see Michigan beat the Irish . The story lines for the michigan and nebraska game could be huge I think. But I still think michigan has problems at qb. The qb is a spread qb and you just can't go from a spread offense to a pro style offense and expect things to be ok. 

 
I think Troy Walters said being ready to play 15 games in his press conference yesterday. He was half joking. When do the playoff tickets go on pre-sale. 

 
If we go 3-0 to stat, I dont think that does enough to get us into the top 25. 

If we beat Michigan in the Big House, it might be hard to leave us out. I dont think we win that game and therefore I dont think we crack the top 25.

But I do think we start next season as a pre-season top 25.
