     Remember the rest of what I said.  They possibly could get that 
high but they are going to need help.  They won't get there just because 
they are undefeated.  NU is pre-season 18-20 depending on the poll.  NU 
plays two teams in the top 20 this year.  That being Texas and USC.  
Even if NU would go undefeated there are enough teams ahead of them that 
if they would have stellar seasons would make it difficult for NU to 
move that high.  Depending on certain circumstances but assuming NU is 
20th and USC is Number one when they play, which is likely it will be 
something around there, NU would have to dominate USC to move into the 
top 10.  If the Huskers win a close one it won't move them into the top 
10 I wouldn't think.  I don't think I have ever seen anyone move up more 
than eight places no matter who they beat.
