At a 9-0 start, I guess that proves that we have proved nothing yet.

Looks like we've got "something to prove" in Arizona. Go get em Tubby!

The 9-0 record is a better indicator of a weak schedule than a strong team (so far). Even our top "name" opponent, Virginia, is a dismal 147th currently. I think a strong showing against #8 Louisville will move us up considerably.

It's awfully harsh to have Michigan down at #44. I don't see why they're that low - they are at least equal to Purdue at this point. Is Northwestern really better than Michigan and Illinois? I'm not sure, but it's hard to believe.

Those look very similar to Ken Pomeroy's projections.
