Nothing about Iowa State says they should be ranked. Not one thing. Iowa is 17th for what reason? Just because of one win?

You start playing that game pretending to know where teams really fall on the chart, you better be able to back that up with some sound reasoning for every team you think should and should not be. But I doubt you could do that so let's not go there. I couldn't either and don't want to try. It's so subjective down at that range it's stupid to play that game. The difference is they start trying to make certain teams look good by boosting others. You don't really boost anyone by adding BSU and App St, so that suggests they're being treated pretty fairly. Maybe you can make an argument for someone else to be in their spot. Well duh. But it can go the other way too.
