So people stop asking, the "Bi" in my username is a reference to my love for the two greatest collegiate sports programs in the world, the Virginia Tech Hokies and the Marshall Thundering Herd.

I thought you were talking about quality of play. If you were measuring "better" in terms of pure entertainment value and drama, maybe. (even then it's pretty clear we care more about FBS's drama because of, you know, the quality of play)

Back when Nebraska got blasted by Colorado in the conference title game by like 30 points they still went to the natty because the BCS weighed games evenly regardless of when they were played.

So it wasn’t always like this!

I was cool with a New Years Six bowl at the start of the year so being able to take a picture of Georgia being 1/2 in a playoff ranking before a lovely team beats us is icing on the cake.

Is this Heaven?
I looked it up and Iowa was at 9 in the first playoff ranking in 2015 so I'm gonna stand by that as a comparison for Wisconsin. I thought they might be higher since theyre a more established brand at this point but if they win out I still think they'll be fine (hopefully they lose in 2 weeks and we never find out!)

MourningView

That seems fine? Their only loss is by one point to the number 1 team and they've been killing pretty much everyone else. Notre Dame is good

Wisconsin at 9 is fine, Hornibrook kind of loving sucks. Georgia looks fantastic and they have a better resume then Bama, they would still play bama in the SEC championship so I guess the bigger question is if both of them can make it :o:

Also #15 motherfuckers. OU is way overrated. Almost seemed like they wanted OSU higher, but knew they had to put OU above them.

Very happy with #5. With our remaining schedule as long as we take care of business I believe we'll jump at least one of Clemson/ND/SEC loser.

The only problem is that now we can't claim to be underrated or slighted. The chip is officially off Baker's shoulder. We're totally going to blow it in Stillwater this weekend.

I... don't know how to feel about 9th.

On one hand, several one-loss teams are ahead of us. On the other, we face NO ONE who is ranked (or have faced).

e: we may face Ohio State in the BTCG, but that's it.

And even though it sucks relatively deservedly so? Their loss looks better in retrospect, they have a couple of pretty good wins and a chance to pick up a couple more.

When its all said and done, Wisconsin's best non-championship win may very well be the FAU Fighting Lane Kiffins
