#23 in the coaches poll - BostonCard - 11-12-2017
http://sportspolls.usatoday.com/ncaa/football/polls/coaches-poll/
We are the "biggest riser"
We are looking set for a playoff consisting of Alabama, the Clemson/Miami winner, Wisconsin, and Oklahoma, assuming (big assumption) that these teams don't lose. I'm not convinced about Wisconsin, and Alabama has two tough tests coming up (Auburn and Georgia).

Nice, but usually we're the top -rated team with xx number of losses. We have three losses, but Mississippi State (#19), Louisiana State (#21) and North Carolina State (#22) are all ranked ahead of us.
We are 2-2 against ranked teams, and we just had what I think is our best win over #9 Washington, and we also beat #20 Utah. We lost to #25 Washington State and #6 USC.  Unlike the other three teams, we have one more game against a Top 25 team, against #3 Noter Dame.Â
 - MSU is 1-3 against ranked teams, with a 37-7 win over LSU back in mid-September and losses to #11 Georgia and #13 Auburn, though their recent close loss (31-24 against #2 Alabama).Â
 - LSU is 2-1 against ranked teams (not including Mississippi State who they lost to, and a loss to unranked Troy) with wins over #10 Auburn and #21 Florida and a loss to #2 Alabama.
 - NCSU is 2-2 against ranked teams with losses to #4 Noter Dame and #9 Clemson, and wins over #12 Florida State and #17 Louisville. Also, a loss to unranked South Carolina in their opener.

They could rank us #50 at this point, if we win the Big Game and UW wins the Apple Cup I'm thrilled.

Given that Bryce Love and Bobby Okereke both wear #20, the AP ranking seems...fitting.

Well I meant specifically for this season. My point being, I'm more concerned with winning the North than I am with what ranking we have if we happen to do so.

I think he is alluding to the 1999 season, where we were unranked but won the Pac-10 when UW lost at UCLA and handed us the Pac-12 championship and a trip to the Rose Bowl.
