Why is Auburn ranked 16th and Purdue 26th? Both are 6-3 Auburns best wins are Arkansas and Ole Miss both ranked in teens when they played … Purdue beat Iowa when No 2 and MSU No 3 when they played

Crunching the numbers OSU football 1981-2000: 6-13-1 vs. UM, 6 B1G titles, 0 NC, 4 major bowl wins ... since Jim Tressel hiring 1/18/01: 18-2 vs. UM, 12 B1G titles, 2 NCs, 11 major bowl wins ... I'd call that a turning point

Anybody who was at the game on Saturday knows Nebraska has something special going on, they had 84,000 people there going nuts ... No, they didn't win the game (some of that self-inflicted, again) ... But they have a special set-up there ... Let Frost see it through
Have you noticed the Big Ten is becoming the last pocket of college football not making knee-jerk firings and paying huge buyouts?
It worked for Michigan, maybe it will for Nebraska, too.
