[Husker] Polls after this weekend

I'm wondering how the polls will treat us this weekend.  Let's suppose we
go into the horseshoe this weekend and beat OSU.  Let's say by a touchdown.

We are ranked #21 in the AP Poll and #20 in the Coaches.  Ohio State is #12
in the AP, but because of their 'situation' is unranked by the other poll.

Where do we end up in the rankings?

I would think that beating a higher ranked home team by at least a
touchdown bumps us up pretty high, maybe mid-teens (depending on what else
happens this weekend, of course).  But again, beating an unranked home team
by any score doesn't often get you too far.

If we lose by a touchdown, I wonder if we drop from the top 25?  For sure
if we lose by a bunch.
