Deserved or not, the Nebraska Cornhuskers are once again a Top 10 ranked team.

After a few teams like Tennessee, Miami and Houston in front of them, the Husker rode their bye week into a 10th ranking by the Associated Press poll this morning.

It’s the first time that the Huskers have been ranked in any Top 10 since November 5, 2011. That day, the Huskers were 7-1 on the season up to that point, but lost at Memorial Stadium to Kain Colter and the Northwestern Wildcats 28-25.

Nebraska, 5-0 on the season and 2-0 in Big Ten Conference play, will head to Bloomington, Indiana, to take on the home town Hoosiers for the first time since the Huskers became members of the Big Ten Conference.

Here is the full listing of the AP Poll. We will have the USA Today Coaches poll here when released this afternoon.
