Nebraska moves from 5th to 3rd this week and is the big mover of the week. My gut just tells me they are better than Kansas and Missouri.
Texas Tech drops two more spots to 8th, but I could see them climbing back up the rankings by the end of the year.
One Big 12 matchup (Iowa State vs Kansas State) this weekend, should be a close battle between two even teams.
