Florida State loses to unranked Clemson - and they drop from #10 to #17. #11 Oklahoma loses to #18 Oregon, although in a screwed up game, and Oklahoma drops to #16, while Oregon rises to #12.
#19 Nebraska loses to top #2 ranked USC, and we drop four places to #24? What's up with that?
Did we look that bad, or was it because we finally have a loss and it's convenient to put us there (believe me, after doing polls for a while, from 20-25, you're just looking to who fits there, you don't really care).
We'll show you nay sayers. We'll win the Big 12 North, and then we'll be on top of..... a really incredibly crappy half of a mediocre conference.
