I see the mighty resume of arkansas (or any sec school)wasn't worthy of their list 
talk about a tough OOC!

This is an entertaining list, but there's no way Nebraska or Iowa State are actually one of the worst 25 teams in the country.
You guys do realize that what ISU did to rank in the bottom was play Iowa a very close game at Iowa City?
No way ISU is in bottom 25. They didnt deserve to beat Iowa, but they were far from being blown out. They may start 1-3, but will be ok this year.
This.
Too early to tell if ISU is bad or if the Iowa defense is that good. I’m definitely not a fan of ISU or Nebraska, but ranking them in the bottom 25 for losing close games to open the season is crazy. I’d actually put Michigan State on that list before those two teams.
Don’t fool yourself, isu on the list due to its history of sucking most years.
I beg to differ. One has no offense while the other has no defense. And it's highly probable that neither team gets to 6 wins.
These "bottom" lists are not literally ranking the bottom 10 or bottom 25 teams in the country.
They could more accurately be called the Inglorius Ten or Embarrassed 25 or something.

Yup, they saw Isu's record and put them on the list out of habit.
Did you read? Nebraska and ISU are on the list because of the "small sample size". I dislike both programs but please do not misrepresent things to make yourself feel good.
"Like Nebraska, Iowa State isn't here for its performance as much as it is for its small sample size. Unfortunately for the Cyclones, with Oklahoma up next, they might be sticking around for a while. Or they'll just beat the Sooners again like they did last year. (NR)"
