Yes but we aren’t going to be dropped out of the rankings after a win. Just not going to happen.SP+ is going to HATE that performance.
Yeah very unlikely, not this late in the season against a major conference team. If #23 does that Week 1 against an FCS team it's a different story.Yes but we aren’t going to be dropped out of the rankings after a win. Just not going to happen.
It will be interesting to see how much/if we drop vs. how much/if Bama drops for doing similar things.
yup, no shame going into Eugene and losing by a pointI am more interested in where Ohio State lands. That was a heck of a game to listen to on the ride home from the game. I see anywhere from 4-7.
To be a sourpuss, where they're ranked, and the outcome of that game, doesn't really matter in the new college football. Those are both comfortable playoff teams and are pretty likely to meet again in the B1G Championship which will decide the bye.I am more interested in where Ohio State lands.

The tiebreaker procedures are going to be huge this year. While I do believe it will end up being OSU/Oregon rematch, there is the potential for some tiebreaker madness at the top.To be a sourpuss, where they're ranked, and the outcome of that game, doesn't really matter in the new college football.

Perhaps we pass Oklahoma as well. They lost in a baaaaad showing. Albeit to #1 Texas, but still, they looked bad.#22 Illinois vs #23 Michigan??
Perhaps we each bump up one spot due to Utah’s loss, but not a lot of potential for movement upward otherwise.
Name checks outI'm happy if we stay put . . .but then again, I'm just happy, period.
5-1. Another week ranked. We won the cannon. We have a legit top 3 or 4 QB in the conference. This kind of success doesn’t come along too often for us. If you had told me this is where we’d be after 6 games over the summer I would have been ecstatic. I’m trying to focus on that instead of the giant red flag that was our second-half defensive performance against that PU team. Gotta say, I’m having mixed results thus far. But hey, #22 in the country halfway through the season. It’s a heck of a thing. I-L-L.
