My rankings (not Pablo predictions): 1. Nebraska 2. Washington 3. Stanford 4. Penn State 5. Minnesota 6. Florida 7. Louisville 8. Missouri 9. Hawai'i 10. Wisconsin 11. Notre Dame 12. USC 13. UCLA 14. San Diego 15. Ohio State 16. Kansas State 17. Santa Clara 18. Arizona 19. Saint Mary's 20. Purdue 21. BYU 22. Kansas 23. California 24. Texas 25. Ohio Like I said before I don't see how BYU is not ranked ahead of Ohio State. BYU beat them last night in the state of Ohio. |

Last week Ohio State was ranked #14 and BYU was unranked. Ohio State only went down 1 place because most of the teams close behind it also lost. Meanwhile, BYU went from unranked to #21, in the process leapfrogging over six previously ranked top 25 teams. Give it a few weeks to see if BYU consistently plays well. If so, expect it to move up. I also expect Ohio State to move down, frankly.

huntz, you said Texas, not Texas A&M.
And if you think the Big12 is the 3rd best conference in the country, I can't see how you can possibly believe Nebraska will not be tested. I still say it's the fact they don't play back-to-back matches that hurts Nebraska, not the Big12 competition.
And I still say the Pac10's level of play is very comparable to the Big12's and the Big10's. Heck, the West Coast is going to be pretty tough again this year.
Speaking of TAMU, with wins over LSU and St Marys, it's hard for me to keep them out of the top 25, even with the loss to Kansas (on the road).

Huntz... for crying out loud you got to be kidding me....... Even by Hawaii fans own admissions..... the Wahine team is struggling this year... and Washington beats them twice and you think thats an arguement for #1. Get a grip..... NU destroyed Penn state who is a much more solid team this year than Hawaii. Not to mention Hawaii ( also) Minnestota, etc..... Washington has not had a tough test yet.... wait until they run into Stanford....( A SWEEP FOR THE HUSKERS ALSO BY THE WAY) ..... Then we will compare. Merit over hype ladies and gentlemen.

The gators are this years dark horse. Yes, they were swept by Notre Dame. And they beat a USC team that has always given them problems which is down this year. They are young and are growing with each match. The Gators will be a dangerous team in December.

You are a Hunsker fan so obviously you are going to say that. I'm not a fan of either school. I only go off of what I have seen this year. Hawaii is struggling this year, but that doesn't kick them out of the Top 10. |

Yes .... I am a fan of the Huskers ...and when we were down I was realistic about their talent level....This year they are quite frankly loaded with 6 of the best players I have ever seen.... In all honesty.... I would not trade one single player on our team for any players on another roster... I think Elmer and Stalls are the two best middles in the country, Foluke is neck and neck with Stalls but Stalls has the experience. I would not trade Houghtelling and Pavan for anyone......and I doubt if anyone else would either...... Larson....... with Barboza and Foluke are the three best freshman in the country.... the most well rounded.,.... Larson. And would anyone of you trade Sale for another passer or defense plus you get an All-american attacker... Time will tell if I am wrong but I think we are seeing one of the best teams in volleyball college history.... AND I WOULD SAY THAT EVEN IF I WASN'T A HUSKER FAN.
