Doogitywoogity	16	A close win over Maryland, but given all the other chaos they’ve moved up substantially regardless. The close loss to Michigan certainly stings more as Michigan collapses, and the number of ints thrown should be cause to be worried with Raiola.

SufferingfOrLife	25	New: I wasn't planning to add them initially, but when I had Cincinnati ranked here, I was writing about how they only lost to Nebraska, and I thought Nebraska had the same record. Now, should they be ranked? Maybe, maybe not, as they did lose to Michigan, who I like but has two losses. So, I think the bottom of this ranking will be clearer next week.

_THE__BOULDER_	24	Nebraska has won some close ones against Cincy and Maryland, and are now 5-1, with a loss to what is now a 4-2 Michigan in week 4. Their win against Cincy, though, is really what is propping them up for me, and many of the remaining games they have this season won't be easy. I'm not sure they'll stay ranked, but they've mostly done what they've needed to so far, so we'll see how it goes.
