Just keep winning and ease our way into the top 10 in the next week or so

I know everybody won, but it's VERY unlikely with AP polls that a team has a top 15 team and only moves up one spot (unless you're in the top 5 stacked up against the one seeds).

Only three games this week that could potentially lead to us getting a decent jump if we win in Columbus, all three at neutral sites.

Tuesday, December 9
Clemson vs. #10 BYU (New York, NY)

Saturday, December 13
#1 Arizona vs. #12 Alabama (Birmingham, AL)
#25 UCLA vs. #8 Gonzaga (Seattle, WA)

Obviously we would jump BYU if they lose, but I think they'd be a decently heavy favorite. It might feel weird to predict us to jump Alabama given they beat us in our backyard and are playing #1 Arizona, but ... that's the weird way the polls work. If UCLA beat the 'Zags, I am fairly confident the pollsters would punish them and let us slide in front.

Louisville dropped 5 spots after 1-1 on road against ranked teams (Indiana was). Maybe everybody has caught on that Indiana is not that good. At least that's MHO after watching them a couple times.
