How in blue blazes does a triple OT win over mighty Northern Iowa earn Iowa State a top 25 ranking?

Purely because they started the season ranked. Many voters don’t move winning teams down no matter what what which is stupid. ISU is clearly not a top 25 team at this point.

That said, Northern Iowa is better than the bottom of the MWC.

Northern Iowa might be better than NM and SJSU

I would say Northern Iowa is better than both those teams and probably on par with CSU and UNLV.

Perhaps. I bet CSU and UNLV would win 7 or 8 out of 10 vs Northern Iowa

Have you ever seen CSU play?

Haha. Until they show literally anything good, I wouldn't see CSU winning 7 or 8 out of 10 against a girls school. They're trash and always will be trash as long as BoBo the Clown is in charge. Lets pray that CSU goes full Bridich and gives him a huge extension.

Virginia should be ranked #25 instead of Iowa State.
