And reaction to the AP Poll.
OSU is not in the top 25 preseason poll for a few reasons such as Tylan Wallace, Chuba Hubbard, Tevin Jenkins all gone. Plus we have a QB who has not yet shown his potential. So I don’t have any problems with OSU not ranked. As fans we are pretty confident that the team will be ranked during the season. So being left out for preseason should not matter. All that really matters is W’s. Beat Iowa State and Texas and you get moved up in the rankings pretty quickly. Until then put up lots of points and they move you up in the rankings. Earn it based on play instead of what the voters think of you in preseason.
