If Florida State deserves to be in the top 25 than we sure do.
You know, I really don't give a **** about being ranked. We're 3-0 for only the second time since 1995. That in itself is something to be ****ing ecstatic about. We keep winning, even in these "unimpressive" and flawed ways, the rest will happen in due course.

Without any votes last week in the AP and only 3 in the coaches it will take a lot of people dropping games before you guys see the top 25. JMHO.
but I couldn't stay up to watch the whole thing considering I had only had 7 hours of sleep in 2 days.
troo dat. however, i am sure several teams will be obliging to drop a few games and therefore drop out of the rankings.
all cu has to do is to turn some heads in the next several games. they are in the driver's seat of their own destiny. i like the path they are on.
last week, chusker was mocking buff fans with the snippet, "ewu". today, i would like to remind him that among our two programs, one has had a marquee win (last year) and seems to be turning the corner with respect to starting to beat ranked competition. when was the last time nebraska beat a ranked team? i think the skers may be one of the teams losing out to make way for the buffs, so long as we continue to improve.
jmho.
being ranked is important for the program, so i do care and i do hope it happens, altho i don't think it will this week.
being ranked means that your score rolls on all the various scrolling text on all the news and sports channels. people see it more often.
being ranked means recruits have something measurable (in their minds) to say a program is good.
being ranked means more press coverage.
being ranked means we are winning much more than we are losing.
being ranked means an increased likelihood of television coverage, even for bad games.
ENDING the season ranked is hugely important for the growth of the program and is ultimately way more important than a ranking during the season for a week or something. but, i want us back to the days when we were in the top 20 for YEARS at a time, not wondering whether in some particular week we might sneak into the top 25.
being ranked is a very good thing for CU. i am not entering into the "deserve" conversation-- i just want the program to prosper and i'll take any indicator of progress... in this case, a possibly fleeting appearance in the top 25 wouldn't suck.
i dont disagree about the importance of having that cushy, little number right next to your name and id quite obviously be very happy if we were ranked, however, at this point of the season the rankings are pretty much a popularity contest with very little meaning as the rankings right now are heavily influenced by the pre-season rankings. that´s my sole point.
