Do Huskers jump to 15th in polls?

Never once did I get the feeling I was watching a top 15 team last night...but that doesn't mean they won't make the jump either.
Probably not 5 spots - I think a max of 4. Ole Miss will probably jump them based on their win over #12 Georgia. Georgia may not drop behind NU, given that we often see SEC teams shown more forgiveness for their losses. MSU might not drop behind NU, either. If that's the case, NU might only move up 3 spots.
Had NU not been so sloppy and won by a more comfortable margin, they'd have a stronger case for moving up to 15. But then again, the polls have never been known for their logic.
Bottom line is that NU has 3 very winnable games over the next 4 weeks. Take care of business over the next month and NU could be knocking on the door of the Top 10 by the time the Wisconsin game rolls around.

Does it matter? By the time we play Bucky we should be in the top 15 if we don't sleap up.

It's just a number, early in the season. As long as we keep winning, it will all sort itself out.
18-20 or even 21-22 would be fine with me. The Huskers need more wins to prove it up to me.
