If it helps rankings are like election poles, there’s an effort by all the major tv deals to actively promote SEC above all as they have the rights to the network games.
In a real, unbiased ranking, based on actual talent and wins, Nebraska and Northwestern should’ve been ranked. Both really good football teams.
People forget IUs win against Penn St came down to the last second toe touch, and that same team went on to beat Ohio State, Alabama, Oregon, and Miami to win it all. Arguably the hardest road to a modern championship in all of post college playoffs history.
I just want to give Nebraska props. They’re a really good team with a diverse QB. They played well.
Nebraska isn't that good, and IU isn't nearly as good without Mendoza. Don't try to make your program look better by glazing an average program that outplayed your team.

Frankly, I think both Nebraska and Northwestern should be ranked. The disrespect for Nebraska in particular is unreal.
