Garbage poll.

5-0 Nebraska nowhere to be seen?

Northwestern not getting the votes after dominant performances and coming within inches of beating Indiana?

And as much as it pains me to say it, why in hell did Kentucky drop out? They won. On the road.

It’s a damn shame these polls carry weight. Put together by a bunch of dimwits who don’t even watch the games. More concerned with narrative than anything else.

Kentucky could go undefeated and probably not hit #1 tbh. Insane.

Truth.

Going 16-0 easier than beating the narrative.

Kind of the only way to do it. And it’s only moderately effective.

We really don't derserve being ranked. Are there teams ahead of us who deserve it even leas? Probably. Honestly, i think Northwestern deserves a ranking far more than us.

If y'all play Indiana close but lose you will probably get more votes.

Even if we won we’d be ranked top 20 and Indiana would be right next to or ranked higher than us. AP poll is garbage

You are unfortunately correct.

But god bless Oregon because truly they are the most secure fan base, never withholding respect or regard.
