I want the ranking, but there was no way it was happening this week.
True.
I fully expected to get fewer votes, actually, because the Baylor game was a necessity to climb up the ladder.
ISU has flirted w/ top 25 potential, but hasn't gotten enough momentum. The biggest back-to-back boost into ranking territory came after wins over KU & KSU. But those happened in separate weeks.
Week 1 began w/ a loss at Texas; Week 2 ended w/ a win over OU (which wouldn't increase status).
The following week included a loss @OSU and a non-factor win over A&M.
Rankings have a "snapshot" quality, where timing can matter a lot.
