About time. Should be undefeated in the top 15 but we'll take it.

[Hop Sing]

Michigan should have dropped out, and we are way too low, but that might be a good thing. Just keep winning.

[Graceland Tar Heel]

Michigan should have dropped out, and we are way too low, but that might be a good thing. Just keep winning.

One of the very most beloved of BT schools? 2 loss Mich St would fall out but not Meeshigun.

[Hop Sing]

Plus they had to choose between 2 loss USC, and they weren't going to drop both.

[HubbaHubba]

If only we would have lost to Northern Illinois we would be 11!

[Hop Sing]

If only we would have lost to Northern Illinois we would be 11!

lol….who knew!

Also, how in the world is 4-1 Boise #17

[leopold]

Vandy should have been ranked.

I don't care.

[Pony ^]

Keep the focus and that Pitt game could be reaallllll interesting

[Webmaster]

The Athletic's Chris Vannini has the Ponies at #17.

Focus on the Stanford game and take it one game at a time. We are Legit but don't want to be cocky and stupid? Stanford.

Then Duke, both on the road. Focus Mustang Nation.

Glad to hear that some people are planning the trip to Cali. No, not for wine but for the important things in life - SMU Football.

[The PonyGrad]

ESPN FPI #18

[BUS]

I can accept that. Just win the next game.

Indeed. Fortunately the Mustangs have 2 weeks to prep for Stanford. A few days to soak in how good it feels to W, and then back to business.

Playing with the big boys now. Taking any ACC opponent lightly will be a recipe for getting squished. Things look pretty good on paper, but it will take a lot of maturity combined with the talent to stay ranked.
