Earlier this week the Las Vegas Sports Consultants emerged from their smoke and grease-board filled offices, took off their green-tinted visors to wipe their collective brows with Rolex-clad wrists and unveiled their preaseason poll to the adoration of media and...

The inaugural USA Today coaches poll was released Friday. To nobody's surprise, Nebraska will start the 2008 season unranked, though NU did receive votes in the poll. Five Husker opponents and five teams from the Big 12 conference are ranked...

Here again we present the Big Red Network ballot for the college football top 25 poll at M Go Blog. Just five teams are undefeated and I’ve got them slated 1 through 5. In this crazy season, winning means everything....
Blogpoll Ballot - Week 7
Here again we present the Big Red Network ballot for the college football top 25 poll at M Go Blog. Only six remaining teams are undefeated and I’ve got them slated 1 through 6. Any of them (save Hawaii) deserve...
Blogpoll Ballot – Week 6
Here again we present the Big Red Network ballot for the college football top 25 poll at M Go Blog. As the season has become predictably unpredictable, the ballot will continue to emphasize wins and losses over style points or...
Blogpoll Ballot - Week 5
Once again we present the Big Red Network ballot for the college football top 25 poll at M Go Blog. If ever there was a case for waiting to release polls until October, last weekend was it. Three AP top...

We at the Big Red Network have been invited to vote in a weekly college football top 25 poll at http://mgoblog.blogspot.com/ While it's both a fun exercise and an invitation to mass hysterical criticism, we decided to go for it....
The Top 25 – Week Eight
Perhaps a sign that the Huskers are gaining respect nationally, they did not drop out of the AP Top 20 and Texas did not fall from the Top 5 for having such a close call. Nebraska (#20) still ranks ahead...
The Top 25 - Week Seven
The Huskers climbed to #17 in both the AP top 25 and the initial Bowl Championship Series Poll. Nebraska leapfrogged week seven losers like Georgia, Missouri, and Iowa, as well as undefeated Boise State....
The Top 25 – Week Six
Ohio State retained its top ranking in the Associated Press top 25 poll and USC remained third, but the rest of the top ten changed spots after a weekend that saw Auburn, LSU, and Georgia tumble from the top ten....

Iowa had a fairly soft landing after their three touchdown loss at home to Ohio State, dropping from 13 to 19 in the AP Poll. Meanwhile, Virginia Tech's 11-point home loss to Georgia Tech dropped the Hokies from 11th to...
The Top 25 - Week 3
The Huskers took only a minor hit in the polls this week after a loss to USC that hovered around consensus expectations (i.e. the point spread). The Huskers dropped to 23rd in the AP and 24th in the coaches'...
The Top 25 – Week 2
Texas had a soft landing to #8 in the AP Top 25 Poll after their loss to Ohio State. Granted they lost to the #1 team but the offense looked pretty inept. Florida State remains in the Top 10 despite...
The Top 25
Mea Culpa! Mea Culpa! OK, I don't even really know exactly what that means but I couldn't have been more wrong in my remarks about the preseason Top 25. First, nearly every ranked team took care of business in their...
The Preseason Top 25
Preseason rankings in college football are worth about as much as the preseason standings in the NFL, which is to say they’re pretty much worthless....
