The desert
With the teams that lost in front of us and the margins. I was hoping for #14, possibly #13 heading to Nebraska. Win next 3 going into Michigan I want us at #8 playing #4 in Ann arbor. Yes, I will dream, it's our year!
We have such a weak I have a hard time seeing us get much higher than the low teens between now and then barring multiple epic collapses in front of us.

Unless a bunch of teams ahead of us collapse, I don’t think it’s possible to crack the top 10 before Michigan. TCU and WF have some chances to lose, but everyone else in the Top 12 have cake walks between now and then. I’m gonna guess we get up to 11/12 before Michigan if we keep winning.

Yeah, and it looks like surprisingly few instances of teams in front of us playing each other prior to the Michigan game. Alabama-Ole Miss, OSU-Penn St., Georgia-Tenn (which realistically won't impact our ranking). It's entirely possible there won't be much movement ahead of us. Of course, upsets do happen.
