we'll obviously pass FSU, and possibly Utah. I don't think anyone just below us did anything extraordinary this week.
Top 10 tomorrow?

- Start date
Regardless, I haven't seen a team today Iowa can't beat. A lot of the teams ahead of the Hawks will be taking losses in the next 5 weeks. I think Iowa is around 4-5 heading into the CCG. Need to take care of business against Ohio Stae though, they are playing well tonight.
Very true, but it's a high school team that went on the road last week and beat an Indiana team that some posters are worried might give Iowa trouble.
I think we move to 10. Okie State does not pass us. Hell, we beat NW as bad as they beat Kansas. We pass Free Shoe U for sure. I think we pass the Utes. Certainly we should. They just got an ass whoopen!!!!!!!!!!
Or if they play like the 6th or 7th best team in the Big 10.
Touche.
UW will be good in a few years. They have several true FR on the field, including QB and RB. (QB is out tonight with shoulder injury.) Stanford is just grinding them down.
I'm not going to say it will happen this year, but it wouldn't be the first time an Iowa team was a lot better on paper than Indiana and Indiana gives us a hard time. We don't match up well against their offense and they always seem to give us their best game.
Or you can concentrate on Maryland, and the rest of us are going to discuss the subject in the header.
The PLAYERS should concentrate on Marlyand first. What we as fans concentrate on is as meaningless as a velvet painting of a whale and a dolphin getting it on. I'm sorry but this idea that fans should take it one game at a time is one of the dumbest things ever.

Going Up?
Win next 5 and we will be at the top floor.

My guess is #10. Would've been really interesting to see the rankings had Tennessee not choked again, and finished off Alabama.
Thanks for the reminder. I was out of my head for a while. I am now back focused on Maryland. Whew. That was close. That could have cost the Hawks big time. I won't let that happen again.
Distracted fans no doubt caused Utah and FSU to lose. We can't let that happen to iowa!
With Utah losing, there will be no undefeated Pac 10 champ. This leaves the final four open to the ACC (Clemson), Big XII (Baylor, TCU, or OK St), SEC (LSU or Bama), and the B1G (tOsu, MSU, or Iowa). Right now we control our own destiny; win out and we are in. Rankings at this point are irrelevant, but we will probably be 10th passing FSU and Utah.
Jerry Hinnen @ CBS Sports has Iowa at #10
10. Iowa (12) -- Hey, another team that took the week off. But before you ignorantly taunt the Hawkeyes' schedule, those wins over Pitt, Wisconsin and Northwestern don't look too shabby, do they?

Coaches poll already had Okie St above us. We were 13 last week. So #10 in the (better, more historic, etc) AP poll is a good possibility
OK State will pick up two or three losses in their last five game, so that will eventually work itself out. But I would be fascinated to have even one voter fill in this blank: I voted OK State over Iowa because their wins against _____ are more impressive than Iowa's wins against Pitt, Wisconsin, and Northwestern.
The math is: LSU need to be ranked as high as possible when they lose to Bama so they can stay in the top 10
