Awesome first post, and welcome to the board!

 

Good stuff. It's a good thing we lost when we DID last year. We lost at JUST the right times to stay in the top ten.

I don't know if we'll overtake USC in the top 25 streak until Petey leaves and they lose four or five games in short order. Even then, I don't see it happening. USC has a monopoly on talent on the left coast no matter who the coach is.

Texas actually surprised me. Is there a quieter team out there? You don't hear pundits drooling over them every week like some of the rest of the programs, yet they just go to work and do their jobs JUST well enough to stay off the radar and still accomplish a few things along the way.

 

Excellent site. Thank you!

Looks like LSU does indeed have the longest current streak in the top 10! :champs:

 

86 straight weeks juuust gets us in the top 25 longest streaks ever of being ranked in the AP

pretty impressive

 

i thought we agreed to disregard anything dealing with the AP since its meaningless.

cmon hypocrites, pick a side and stick to it.

 

I believe it is Oklahoma - going back to the Wilkerson period.

 

Not so much in the 90's.

 

Texas has the longest current ranking in the top 25 with 135 consecutive weeks.
