So in the AP poll ND drops from 7 to 12 after winning there first two games. Evidently the voters are impressed .???
To be honest I was never thrilled we started as high as we did. I’d prefer to start off in the teens somewhere. High enough to build on if you are doing well, but low enough not to call a lot of attention to yourself (esp. if you have a year like ours so far).
